Telugu Film Strike Called Off, New Payment Rules Announced

After the Telugu Film Unions raised their demands and went on strike, several meetings were held with the producers. Finally, the producers agreed to some of the demands, and the strike was called off.

Film shootings have restarted, but the new rules are not yet fully in place. To avoid confusion, the Film Chamber and Labour Unions are now supervising the process.

The Film Chamber announced that producers don’t have to pay money to the unions directly. Instead, they can pay the workers themselves.

All bills related to unions must be submitted to the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce, as decided by both parties under the Telangana Labour Department.

Since workers need daily wages, producers should pay them directly. If there are any disputes, the payments can be deposited with the Chamber until the system becomes smooth.
