ABVP attacks Chiru kin's film shooting unit in Hyderabad

Attacks on film shootings continued here for the second day today with a film unit of Allu Aravind, brother-in-law of Praja Rajyam Party chief Chiranjeevi, coming under attack by ABVP activists.
Activists of the student-wing affiliated to the BJP obstructed shooting of a Telugu movie produced by Aravind, on the outskirts of the city today.
The film unit was planning to take up shooting of the movie at a location behind the Ramoji film city and set up its equipments, when some members of the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad (ABVP) suddenly went to the area and stopped the unit from taking the shooting, a senior police officer said.
"About eight activists of the ABVP went to the area where a tent was erected to undertake the shooting of the film and threatened the crew members to stop its shooting and to immediately pack up," L B Nagar DCP A Satyanarayana told PTI, adding the activists ran away after seeing the police.
Aravind was, however, not present at the location when the incident happened, he said.
The ABVP activists also warned the crew members. "You better take up the film shooting in Andhra region and not in Telangana," they allegedly said, according to another police official. Hayathnagar police are investigating the matter.
The incident comes a day after TRS activists disrupted shooting of a Telugu movie, starring Manoj, son of noted Telugu actor M Mohan Babu.
