The Madras High Court has refused to stay the release of Parasakthi, clearing the way for its Pongal theatrical release on January 10. The court found no grounds to halt the film despite plagiarism allegations raised by an assistant director.
The Film Employees Federation of South India (FEFSI) criticized the wage disparity in the Tamil film industry during a Madras High Court session, revealing that actors earn Rs 300 crore per film while technicians receive less than Rs 3,000 daily. The dispute between FEFSI and the Tamil Film Producers Council (TFPC) has escalated legally, prompting calls for mediation.
