The action of the producers has surprised many celebs, who are all praises for them for finding this solution. Vijay Deverakonda is one of those happy celebs, who posted about the issue on the social media. The actor recalled how he faced similar issue with Dear Comrade.

In a lengthy comment posted on his X account, Vijay Deverakondan said that he had been asking his producers to find a solution for negative ratings ever since the release of Dear Comrade. Now, he is happy with the action of the makers of Mana Shankara Varaprasad Garu. He said that this will not only solve the problem but become one less thing to worry about.

Here is Vijay Devakonda's comment posted on his X account:

"Happy and Sad to see this - Happy to know hardwork, dreams and money of many is protected in a way. And Sad because of the reality of our own people causing these problems. What happened to live and let live? and growing together?"

"Since the Days of Dear Comrade i first began to see the shocking politics of organised attacks. My voice all these years fell on deaf ears - i was told nobody can stop a good film. And every producer and director who then make a film with me, soon realises the scale of the issue."

"I have stayed up many nights wondering what kind of people do this, and how to deal with them to protect my dreams and dreams of many who will come like me and after me.. I am glad it is now out in the open and the court now recognises the threat to movies even starring someone as big and powerful as Megastar himself."

"This will not solve the problem entirely but become one less thing to worry about. For now lets wish #MSG and all other Sankrathi films do extremely well by entertaining us all during the holidays."
