Overview
- Big-budget projects must move to a revenue-sharing model with actors and leading technicians sharing both profits and losses with producers.
- OTT releases are staggered to eight weeks for films with leading stars such as Rajinikanth, Kamal Haasan, and Vijay, six weeks for mid-tier casts, and four weeks for small-budget titles.
- A Film Release Regulation Committee with theatre and distributor representatives will be formed to secure screens for up to 250 small and medium-investment films each year.
- Unions were asked to withhold cooperation from those prioritising web projects over films, and theatre owners were advised against screening works by violators.
- Industry bodies plan legal action against YouTube channels deemed to overstep under the guise of criticism, private awards or music shows require prior approval, and the TFPC thanked the Tamil Nadu government for single-window permissions, a lower local service tax, and land allocation.
