In a recent public address in Karimnagar, Telangana, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a comment that has since ignited a nationwide debate. The Prime Minister drew a fascinating comparison between the ‘double R’ (RR) tax and the box office collection of the recently released Telugu film ‘RRR’.
PM Modi stated during his address, “From Telangana to Delhi, there is a lot of discussion about ‘double R’ (RR) tax.” He further added that he was informed that the ‘RR’ tax has even eclipsed the collection of ‘RRR’.
The film ‘RRR’, which premiered a few days ago, has reportedly garnered a lifetime collection of over Rs 1000 crore. However, according to PM Modi, this figure is just a few days’ collection of the ‘RR’ tax.
The Prime Minister’s statement has sparked a nationwide conversation, with people trying to unravel the implications of the ‘RR’ tax and its comparison with a blockbuster film’s earnings. As the conversation continues to evolve, it will be intriguing to see how this analogy between a film’s box office collection and a tax collection will influence public opinion.
