Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a recent public gathering in Karimnagar, Telangana, made a remark that has since sparked widespread discussions across the nation. The Prime Minister drew an intriguing 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 surpassed the collection of ‘RRR’.
The film ‘RRR’, which was released a few days back, has reportedly raked in 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 statement has triggered a nationwide debate, with people trying to decode the meaning 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.
