Kinshuk Mahajan On How Things Will Change When Shooting Resumes & How Cautious One Has To Be Owing To COVID-19

Even though everyone is facing the toughest situation there can be when it comes to not only forced to stay in homes but also not working, it is no secret that things will change immensely even and when the lockdown is lifted and work is resumed.

Actor Kinshuk Mahajan seems to have analyzed it well and in an interview with Iwmbuzz, Mahajan opened up on several aspects where he said, “The govt is facing a catch 22 situation you can’t shut down the economy for long, yet if you open too quickly you might fritter away the sacrifices of the past 40 days. We can’t breathe a sigh of relief until a vaccine comes around. Luckily, both Italy and Israel have announced promising antibody breakthroughs.”

He added, “New practical protocols ensuring a safe shooting environment for actors and crew will need to be drawn up. Given the current scenario of rising COVID -19 cases in Mumbai and scary stories of bodies stacking up in the hospitals, I don’t think we can resume before July that too with strict restrictions.”

He suggested that all producers should do compulsory health insurance of their cast and crew,” as channels do of their staff.”

“Some daily wage earners might not like a part of their income going towards premiums, but then nothing tops life right group insurance covers have lower payouts compared to individual policies. There might be one fly in the ointment though, insurance companies fearing huge drains in profits are planning a huge hike in premium. The finance ministry can soften the blow offering rebates.”

“Industry bodies also need to create a corpus, but as office bearers point out that some actors reluctant to shell out more than membership fees. Have we not seen several living in rented flats but zooming around in high-end wheels? Guys, now is the time to revisit our priorities in a crashed economy.”
