Actor Ram Charan recently attended a summit where he spoke about his recent release Peddi and the massive success of Aditya Dhar and Ranveer Singh’s Dhurandhar films. He claimed that the films’ box-office performance was proof that they brought the country together. The actor also spoke about how, despite theatre footfall reducing after the pandemic, good films like KGF and Pushpa have proven otherwise.
Ram Charan thinks popcorn rates should come down
Ram was asked at the summit by Republic how people have ‘stopped coming to the theatres’ and his perspective as both an actor and producer. He said, “When there’s great cinema like KGF, Pushpa 2, or Dhurandhar, Kantara, RRR, people have come back to the theatres. After the effect of COVID, all of us were a little scared whether they’ll come back. In India, the cheapest form of entertainment is still cinema. To go, take your family, after the film, we’re all talking about it. It is a great communal activity also. Of course, if the popcorn rates come down a bit, it’ll be much better.”
