Speaking on the occasion of its trailer launch, Telangana Minister V Srinivas Goud said that technology has become a double-edged sword. "Nowadays, children have access to mobile phones. And we elders can never say what he is doing with the mobile phone. It's often alleged that films lead to crime incidence in society. If films also portray the consequences of crimes, it would be an eye-opener," the Minister said.

For the cleaning-up of the muck, it's essential for society as a whole to course-correct," the Commissioner of Police said.
