TV artistes have staged a dharna in front of a local police station in Hyderabad after their camera was take away by the police.

They said that they were shooting the serial 'Akka Chellellu,' in the city.

The police, who came into the picture, allegedly took camera from them stating that they had no permission shoot in that locality.

The sources said that it was residents of Puppalaguda colony who complained to the police about the serial shooting.

The artistes probably would have never imagined that someone would complain against them only for shooting in the public as so far people have come across people who gather with big smiles whenever there's some outdoor shooting.

But, in places such as Hyderabad, outdoor shooting is definitely not a cakewalk and this incident proves the same.
