Chiranjeevi also added that beneficiaries would get required medicines under this scheme at subsidised rates.
Chiranjeevi’s announcement comes at a time when the functioning of the Telugu film industry has been hampered by the second wave of coronavirus. In order to contain the spread of Covid-19, the Telangana government recently announced a slew of new restrictions that has affected the film industry’s recovery. The Telugu Film Producers’ Council has directed its members not to shoot films with a crew bigger than 50 members. In the meantime, theatres across Telangana have closed down in the light of new government restrictions.
The virus has also infected many leading names of Tollywood, including Pawan Kalyan. The younger brother of Chiranjeevi is under medical care at his farm house. And he is said to be recovering well from the infection.
Telugu megastar Chiranjeevi on Monday announced that he has tested positive for coronavirus. The 65-year-old actor said that he did a COVID-19 test as part of the safety protocol before joining the sets of his upcoming movie Acharya.
“I am currently asymptomatic & quarantining myself at home. Request all those who met me in the last 5 few days to also undergo covid tests. Will update you on my recovery soon,” he said in a letter to fans and the media.
