In a recent public gathering in Karimnagar, Telangana, Prime Minister Narendra Modi made a remark that has since sparked widespread discussions across the nation. The Prime Minister drew an interesting comparison between the ‘double R’ (RR) tax and the box office collection of the recently released Telugu film ‘RRR’.
During his address, PM Modi said, “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 outperformed the collection of ‘RRR’.
The film ‘RRR’, which was released a few days back, has reportedly made a lifetime collection of over Rs 1000 crore. However, PM Modi suggested that this amount is merely a few days’ collection of the ‘RR’ tax.
The Prime Minister’s comments have ignited a nationwide debate, with people trying to understand the implications of the ‘RR’ tax and its comparison with a blockbuster film’s earnings. As the discussion unfolds, it will be fascinating to see how this analogy between a film’s box office collection and a tax collection will shape public discourse.
