Ramgopal Varma meets Jagan, sets tongues wagging

AMARAVATI: Noted filmmaker Ram Gopal Varma, popularly known as RGV, on Wednesday met Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Jaganmohan Reddy in Amaravati. The unexpected meeting created a huge buzz in the political and film circles in Andhra Pradesh as well as in Telangana.

Though the reason behind the meeting was yet to be known, It is speculated that it could have taken place against the backdrop of recent dispute over the pricing of cinema tickets in Andhra Pradesh. Earlier, at the height of the ticket-pricing controversy between the State Government and Tollywood, RGV had met Andhra Pradesh Minister of Cinematography Perni Venkataramaiah (Perni Nani) in an attempt to break the impasse.
