Producers catch their breath as strike ends

Anxious production houses finally breathed a sigh of relief as the industry-wide three-day strike finally ended. The Federation of Western India Cine Employees, made up of 22 unions had called the strike to protest against low wages for workers, late payments and long shifts. After long fruitful discussions with producers, FWICE called off its strike. According to the new agreement, all daily wagers will get their arrears within 15 days and the ones working on a contract basis will be paid on a monthly basis. Plus, producers agreed not to hire non-members of FWICE. The strike had threatened to cripple production of TV shows, as several soaps didn?t have a bank of canned episodes. What compounded the issue was the support lent to the strike by several popular stars such as Shilpa Shetty and Pooja Bedi. According to a source the strike had driven several shows to a state of panic. Some stars made the best of this welcome break and took off for vacations.

@Norzar--...I think this is about the current strike...because it says..'The strike had threatened to cripple production of TV shows, as several soaps didn?t have a bank of canned episodes.''''...
