For the moment, Ram Charan’s upcoming film a remake of Amitabh Bachchan’s Zanjeer is slated to release on September 6. Says a source, “People of Andhra Pradesh are very upset with Chiranjeevi.

He had been against the formation of Telangana and had even gone on a fast in 2009 on the issue. But with his stance changing recently, even his brother Pawan Kalyan’s film Camerman Gangatho Rambabu helmed by Puri Jagannath had run into trouble.”
