The outbreak of coronavirus in India made the government take certain measures. One among them is to shut down the theatres and halt all the shootings. With this decision, the entire film industry has come to a halt. One of the popular Telugu production houses, PC Connects has also suspended all its activities as of now. The works will resume once the situation gets better. Heads of PC Connects, Puri Jagannadh and Charmy Kaur informed the same through an official press note.
