VIJAYAWADA: Bringing the curtains down on famous play Chintamani, which had enthralled the audience for almost 100 years, the Andhra Pradesh government issued orders banning the exhibition of ‘Chintamani Padya Natakam’ in the State. The decision was taken in view of objections raised by the Arya Vysya community over some “objectionable dialogues and characters” in the play.
The Arya Vysya community had been up in arms against the play for a long time. Recently, the centenary celebrations of the play were held in Eluru of West Godavari and the controversy once again came to the fore. Arya Vysya representatives reportedly took up the issue with Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, who directed the Youth, Tourism and Culture department to issue necessary orders on the issue.
