Actor Shivaji Defends Film Industry Amid Piracy Debate
Actor Shivaji, who recently acted in the movie Court, talked about how people think actors and others in the film industry live in luxury.
He said that's not true for most people in the industry.
Only a small number live very well, while the rest live simple lives.
He also talked about a man named Immadi Ravi who was arrested for running a website that illegally shows movies.
Shivaji said that people who break the law should be punished.
He also explained that sometimes movie tickets cost more, just like bus fares during busy times.
He believes good movies can attract people even if they are not expensive to make.
Actor Shivaji defends the Telugu film industry, stating 95% lead simple lives.
He criticizes the perception that all film personalities live in luxury.
