Chiru Slams Rumors on Film Workers’ Pay Hike Assurance

Megastar Chiranjeevi has been the first person to react to issues of Telugu Film Industry and currently, employee unions have announced strike demanding 30% salary hike. Film Chamber has decided to not conduct any discussions with unions due to their unilateral decision to go on strike.

Rumors have being doing rounds that Chiranjeevi met Federation and union representatives and even assured them about 30% salary hike. He condemned and thrashed such rumors. He took to X, and wrote, “It has come to my attention that some individuals claiming to be the members of the Film Federation have gone to media falsely claiming that I have met them and given an assurance that their demands regarding 30% wage hike etc., shall be met and that I will be starting shooting very soon.”

He further stated, “I wish to set the record straight that I have not met anyone from the federation This is an industry issue and no individual including me can give any unilateral assurances to solve any problem one way or the other. The film chamber is the apex body of the Telugu Film Industry and only the Film chamber as a collective will engage in discussions with all concerned and arrive at a just solution. Until such time, making such false claims is unacceptable.”

Chiranjeevi appeared very concerned about the spread of such baseless rumors and wrote, “I condemn all such baseless and motivated claims to create confusion among all stakeholders. Please note.” Well, he will very soon talk to both the parties but spreading rumors before that looks like someone trying to force their wish upon him.
