Hyderabad, December 23: Attacks on film shootings continued for the second day on Wednesday with a film unit of Allu Aravind, brother-in-law of Praja Rajyam Party chief Chiranjeevi, coming under attack by ABVP activists.
The Sangh Parivar activists obstructed shooting of a Telugu movie produced by Allu Aravind, on the outskirts of the city. The film unit was planning to take up shooting of the movie at a location behind the Ramoji film city and set up its equipments, when some members of the ABVP suddenly went to the area and stopped the unit from taking the shooting, a senior police officer said.
"About eight activists of the ABVP went to the area where a tent was erected to undertake the shooting of the film and threatened the crew members to stop its shooting and to immediately pack up," L B Nagar DCP A Satyanarayana said adding the activists ran away after seeing the police.
"However, Allu Aravind was not present at the location when the incident happened," he said. The ABVP activists further warned the crew members by saying, "You better take up the film shooting in Andhra region and not in Telangana," another police official said based on the version of some members of the crew.
