Government relaxes production norms for films and television: cost to increase

The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting (MIB) on Sunday allowed resumption of film shooting — which was on hold due to the spread of Covid-19. While TV serials had already resumed shooting back in June, the new guidelines allow for films and high-budget webseries to get back on track. “Any form of guidelines that lead to restart of production in business for the entertainment industry in India is a welcome move especially if it is supported by the central government.

Currently, we’ve been operating under different state guidelines and industry guidelines so a common policy to take us back to open up for business is a great idea,” Vikram Malhotra, CEO, Abundantia Entertainment, told BrandWagon Online.

What Film Production House Have To Do To Resume The Production Of Films?

As per industry analysts, film production houses have to bear a certain rise in cost of production. “There will be an increase in cost but not as much as what producers are going through right now with production stuck mid-way. Cost of keeping a production alive mid-way is a lot more than resuming production under the guidelines,” Jehil Thakkar, partner, Deloitte, said.

What Comes From Analystic Data?

Analysts believe that production firms will mostly see a 10-20% increase if the film’s script allows for the location to be in a controlled situation. However, in case of certain genres such as action, production firms will have to either make changes in the entire script to make it more adaptable to the situation or put the film on hold.

What Does Guidelines Said?

Common locations such as sets, cafeteria, make-up rooms, edit rooms, vanity vans, washrooms, etc. shall be sanitized regularly. Sensitive equipment, while keeping in consideration the delicate nature and technical feasibility, shall be sanitized, to the extent possible, before and after the shoot. Adequate provisions for rational use of gloves, boots, masks, PPE (personal protection equipment) etc. shall be undertaken.
