While the death of Maddelacheruvu Suri has rattled many in the political and faction circles, a fair amount of impact was felt on Tollywood as well. Apparently, Suri was said to be a big lover of films and that has also brought him to pump his money into the Telugu cine industry.
Sources say that two heavy budget movies like ‘Puli’ and ‘Khaleja’ from the camp of Singanamala Ramesh was the result of Suri’s black money. It is heard that Suri’s share is quite strong in both the projects and while Ramesh claimed they were just friends, cine folks say that their relationship was there in business as well.
The theory is that since both films bombed miserably, Suri was given the flat by Ramesh as a compensation of sorts. Till now, few talks were making rounds that drug mafia money and politicians was making rounds in Tollywood. Now, the name of factionists also joins the club.
