Tollywood Faces Severe Financial Crisis

Tollywood is facing a big money problem.

Producers are borrowing a lot of money to make movies, but the interest on these loans is growing so fast that it's becoming harder to pay back.

For example, a movie called Akhanda 2 borrowed 11 crore rupees, but the interest made the total debt 28 crore rupees.

Producers say directors sometimes take too long to finish shooting, which makes the problem worse.

There are also fewer people willing to lend money, and those who do charge very high interest rates.

Some producers are now trying to get money from big companies in Mumbai, but it's not easy.

This is making it very difficult for them to make and release movies.
