Producers Council Decisions on OTT, Heroes Remuneration etc.
Updated : Jul 26, 2022
Beginning on August 1, the Producers Council has decided to halt filming. They claimed that this choice was made in light of the state of the movie business at the time. The Telugu Film Chamber recently hosted a meeting of producers and distributors, and the committee was given the final say. The producers' council, however, unexpectedly released a statement making important decisions. On the eight major topics covered in the most recent executive meeting, many decisions were made.
After much discussion on topics like OTT, VFX fees, and movie ticket prices, many decisions were made. Blockbuster movies will now receive OTT 10 weeks after their theatrical release as part of this decision. According to rumours, films with a modest budget can be submitted to OTT after four weeks. It has been decided that the cost of the VFX for the film's exhibition will be covered by the exhibitors.
The rewards for the heroes were also a topic of discussion. However, some producers have openly asserted that regulation of them is impossible. "The producer enjoys giving a hero a lot. The rewards are given in reply to the heroes' requests. Nobody is allowed to say, "They should take this much."
Additionally, the Telangana Film Chamber has suggested opening up the cost of movie tickets to the general public. In general theatres and C-class centres in cities and towns, it is proposed to maintain the ticket prices at Rs. 100 and Rs. 70 (inclusive of GST). The suggested price for a multiplex is Rs. 125, including GST. For movies with a medium budget and medium hero, it is suggested that the ticket price be Rs. 100 plus GST in cities and towns, Rs. 100 (inclusive of GST) in C-centers, and Rs. 150 plus GST in multiplexes.
