All the film shootings in Tollywood are set to come to a stop from tomorrow, August 1st, as the producers of the industry have decided to assess the current situation of Telugu cinema, given that not a single film post the release of RRR and KGF2 has been able to make a good impact in theatres, or at the box office.
While this is going to cause a major financial crunch for producers who have a lot at stake, it is the daily wage workers who would be hit the worst. Daily wage workers suffered the most during the coronavirus pandemic when the industry had to shut down for several months together. With no clarity over when shootings would resume, it is expected that daily wage workers would once again be hit the most.
Apart from the fact that films have stopped performing well at the box office, the producers are said to have several other issues to tackle, especially ticket prices, the ever increasing budgets, and the over inflated remuneration of actors. It is to be seen whether all these issues would be resolved at the end of the day or not.
