Tamil Film Producer’s Council (TCPC) has decided to take action on their longstanding demands and has taken strong action against stars by halting shootings. According to the resolution no film shootings will be allowed from November 1st.
The TFPC has taken a stand against huge star salaries, rising production costs, falling OTT revenue, and delays in film production. As per the decision, shootings will be stopped in a phased manner. No more new shootings will be permitted post-16th August and films that are in the production stage will have to be wrapped up by 31st October.
Producers, who are opting to release their films within 4 weeks of theatrical release have also come under scanner and action will be taken against them. TFPC says big star films can now be released on OTT only 56 days (8 weeks) after their theatrical run. This 8-week widow is being followed in North as well.
Apart from this, stars who have taken advances from various producers and not stared shooting were also questioned. Stars have been directed not to start any new shoots till they work on the films that they’ve taken advance for.
