Unhappy with their demands regarding wages not being met, the workers of four crafts 'sound recordists, costume, make-up and dress up men' have refused to accept the terms set up by producers and FWICE. They have gone on a strike. The strike will continue indefinitely and the agitated will be hoping for a favourable verdict when the FWICE officials and all four producers' bodies meet again on 28 November.

Ok!! Im not liking this crappy strike any more!! If they just want us to stop watching their shows they might as well just tell us openly... coz I think its only bad for these people the longer the strike goes on.. The TV industry will just crumble down if the costs go up and the TRPs drop along with the GRPs...😡The GECs are the ones who will lose the loyal viewers if they keep annoying them this way!!

I hope this doesn't affect the show in terms of new episodes.
Maybe all that will happen is Sara, Parul, Kinshuk, Angad & co. will have to dress themselves and do their own make-up😕😆... so maybe they'll just look a little rough for a few episodes😆
I'm so tired of this strike thing, but then i'll be the first to admit, i don't know a whole lot about it😕

omgsh!
man what the heck?!
why dont these workers get proper pay?!
honestly, if the actors can get lavish brand name clothes to wear, then why should the light, make-up, sounds and the rest of the crew have to make do with like 14 000 per month?
i agree with the strike, however, i do not like the fact that i cant watch my shows.
-> oh well.. i'll survive.
