Satakarni lands in legal trouble

[Kool_SRG]

 

Natasimha Balakrishna's 100th film Gautami Putra Satakarni created sensation at the box office. Film celebrities, movie lovers and critics sang praises of the historical entertainer and congratulated Balakrishna and Krish for their daring attempt. 

 

AP CM ChandraBabu Naidu and Telangana CM KCR provided tax exemption for the historical entertainer to encourage filmmakers to come with more such films. But this is now becoming controversial as many are opposing tax exemptions stating that the film is not historical but fictional. 

 

Some filed petition against the film's exemption in High Court accusing that AP government exempted the entertainment tax by violating the rules prescribed for granting such taxes and the Telangana government has formed a committee to peruse the matter and issued a government order to grant the exemption.

 

High Court adjourned the case to Jan 31st after issuing notices to the producer of Satakarni and the two state governments.

Satakarni Breaks Tax Exemption Rules

Ever since the the state governments of AP and Telangana announced the tax exemption to Balakrishna's 'Gauthamiputra Satakarni', a section of people have been opposing the governments arguing that huge budget was incurred on the project and the makers made it as commercial entertainer irrespective of its genre. 

And now, it is being complained that the makers have broken certain rules which have specially been designed for tax exemption of films. According to a leading Telugu daily's report today, the AP government issued a G.O. on 9th of January which cited 75% tax exemption for GPS. However, according to tax exemption rule 83 of sub rule 3, notified ticket prices have to be slashed upto 25% in theaters. For an instance, a Rs.100 ticket has to be sold out to Rs.75. However, nowhere the ticket prices have been decreased.

And now, it is learnt that the state government received an appeal to announce 100% tax exemption for GPS without imposing any conditions as mentioned in the G.O. And the government is all set to do the favour to the filmmakers in tomorrow's cabinet meet.
