Recently, blockbuster producer Bandla Ganesh issued a press release in which he stated that he considers the entire Telugu media as his family and that he does not belong to the producers' syndicate which has recently decided not to entertain a handful of electronic media channels and to give publicity material to only select TV channels.

The decision of the so called producers syndicate has invited the anger of not just a handful of small producers but also several top league producers. Even though none of these top producers are coming out in open with their dissent, inside reports say that there has been a silent cold war going rampant with each passing day.

Now, leading actor and producer Akkineni Nagarjuna too has openly disassociated himself from the producers syndicate. Nag said that Annapurna Studios is nowhere connected to those who make their own decision regardless of the interest of the Film Chamber and Telugu Film Producer's Council. Nag reiterated that he maintains cordial relationship with the print and electronic media and that he respects any decision taken by the AP Film Chamber and the Producer's Council.
