stringent. According to the Stuntmen Association
in Hyderabad, the local stuntmen are affected
by this as the Tamil film crews bring in
their own stuntmen. They further insist
that all Tamil films shooting stunt sequences
in Hyderabad must employ about 30 per cent
of the stuntmen in Andhra Pradesh. This
has snowballed into a major issue and about
ten Tamil films have been stalled, reports
sources. Speaking about this, the South
Indian Stunt Directors and Stuntmen Association
President, Mr. Bhaskar, said that there
is no such rule of including a number of
persons in the stunt scenes. He also added
that demand for including stuntmen from
a particular region only because the film
is being shot there is unfair. Bhaskar said
that this issue will be discussed at the
All-India Film Workers’ Association
meeting on 16th September.
