It is known that the Producers Guild stalled shootings for around a month in Tollywood. Shooting will resume in September and in the meantime, it is coming out that producers are going to take tough action to reduce the increasing cost of production. Already many top stars are getting ready to slash their remuneration to ensure that there will be a balancing field in the testing times.
Now inside talk is producers are getting ready to control heroines by coming out with package offers. Sources reveal that they have already finalized the remunerations for all the heroines and they will not go above that anymore in the coming days. This is because it is known that heroines are showing tantrums on the sets by coming with all and sundry and making producers pay their expenses. Now the producers are planning to bring all those expenses into the remuneration of the heroines. This will be one kind of package while in another package, they will give some lumpsum amount to the heroines and they will have control over it, and heroines have the option to take either of the packages.
In the first package, heroines will get some amount along with their remuneration and this means the producer takes care of the expenses of those accompanying the heroines. The second package includes the full amount on a single payment basis. In the second package, the heroine herself should bear the expenses of those accompanying her. Already other industries put a strict condition that they will not bear the expenses of those accompanying the heroines. Now it has to be seen how the heroines react to it.
