Hyderabad, May 21 (IANS) The Telugu film industry has no links with the IPL spot-fixing scandal, the Telugu film producers council has said.
The council Tuesday denied reports that a Telugu film producer had links with the scandal which rocked the ongoing Indian Premier League (IPL).
Council executive committee member T. Bharadwaj clarified that Tollywood, as the Telugu film industry is known, has no casting director.
