Authorities Concerned About Ganja Shankar Film
In Picture: Sai Dharam Tej
The Telangana State Anti Narcotics Bureau is worried about a new movie called “Ganja Shankar,” starring Sai Dharam Tej, because they think it might make drugs seem cool. They sent letters to the director, Sampath Nandi, and the producer, S. Naga Vamsi, asking them to change the movie’s title and story to avoid getting in trouble. Sampath Nandi says they didn’t mean to promote drugs and they’re willing to work with the authorities to make sure everything is okay.
Even though there’s some trouble, the people making the movie promise they’re trying to tell a good story without making drugs seem okay. They want to cooperate with the authorities and follow the rules. This situation shows how important it is for movies to be careful about the messages they send. “Ganja Shankar,” made by Mass Movie Makers, is part of a bigger conversation about what’s okay to show in movies and how to do it responsibly.
