Just for clarification...
By bread and butter and people dependent on livelihood for the show...
I meant the support staff... Trolley guys, spot boys, light men, drivers ... All these carpenters painters cleaners and other staff who definitely would be contractual and would suddenly out of the blue would lose their job just because the audience doesn't like the show.
Actors , writers and directors would still be paid hefty amounts to justify their public persona.
But they have more responsibility towards the content they are showing. The junior staff is only following the orders. It doesn't matter to them what content is being shown as long as they have food on their plate.
The decision makers should be the ones taken up for task.
It is unfair to have cases filed against actors but that is also how you get the required attention. Which is why a case filed against DP gets more weightage than a case against SLB.
