By Ians English
Renowned
Telugu
filmmaker
Dasari
Narayana
Rao
is
extremely
happy
over
the
fact
that
the
industry
has
shown
unity
to
financially
support
the
construction
of
the
Andhra
Pradesh
Film
Employees
Federation
of
South
India
(FEFSI)
office
building.
Located
in
Venkatagiri,
the
NTR
Cine
Karmika
Bhavanam,
named
after
late
actor-turned-politician
NT
Rama
Rao
(NTR),
was
inaugurated
recently.
The
reason
for
Dasari
Narayana
Rao
to
feel
happy
is
that
the
whole
state
is
burning
over
the
issue
of
the
bifurcation
of
the
state.
Talking
to
IANS,
the
senior
Tolllywood
filmmaker
said,
"It's
nice
to
see
the
support
coming
from
the
veterans
who
are
the
pillars
of
our
industry.
It
has
made
me
even
happier.
While
actress
Jamuna
donated
Rs
50,000,
producers
D
Ramanaidu
and
Shyam
Prasad
have
donated
Rs
1
lakh
each."
The
Andhra
Pradesh
Film
Employees
Federation
of
South
India
has
been
constructed
for
the
employees
of
the
industry.
The
building
will
soon
be
operational.
Dasari
Narayana
Rao
added,
"The
long
awaited
dream
has
finally
come
true.
This
proves
that
the
industry
still
stands
united
and
I
wish
it
stays
like
that."
Most
of
the
leading
filmmakers
and
actors
in
Telugu
are
from
Seemandhra
region,
but
Hyderabad,
which
comes
in
Telangana
area,
is
the
hub
of
all
filmy
business
activities.
The
central
government's
decision
to
split
has
come
as
rude
shock
for
many
in
the
state.
