Shriya made to say 'Jai Telangana'

Once again Telangana agitation and Tollywood crossed paths. This time agitators stalled the shooting of ‘Allari’ Naresh and Shriya’s film at NG Ranga Agricultural University, Rajendra Nagar on the city outskirts. Agitators forced hero and the heroine to shout slogans in support of Telangana. 

There was a brief scuffle causing tension at the venue and the car in which Shriya was sitting was pelted with stones. Actress escaped unhurt but she vented her anger on twitter. ‘How can they break my car, throw stones, stop shoot and threaten me to say Jai Telangna on TV? That to in broad day light! Police staring at all of this what about freedom? Safety? Thank God the stone didn’t hit me. Both the windows are broken. Seriously I’m disgusted,’ Shriya tweeted.

Tollywood nearly had a peace pact with Telangana agitators and expressed solidarity by closing down the theatres for two days some time ago. After that there were a couple of incidents but shootings weren’t disrupted.
