Mr. Raju is still getting out of his old troubles and is busy with the bookings of "Baktha Jayadev".
CENTRAL STUDIOS,

NOTICE TO SOUTH INDIAN PRODUCERS
(Several South Indian producers seem to live in a world of their own perhaps thinking that they are miles away from the rest of the world. This is absolutely a wrong attitude which producers in business should take. Every producer, for his own publicity should send out Studio News regularly to the different papers, and particularly to "filmindia" which happens to be the most popular paper in the market to-day, having the widest coverage and the largest sales. In the absence of our receiving such information directly from the studios, we are not in a position to check up the reports of our own correspondents and very often mistakes creep in unintentionally. We therefore request the producers in general and those in the South in particular, to send their studio reports to us regularly to reach us before the 10th of every month, if they desire their news to be published in our "Studio Closeups" column. — Editor.)
