Why Are Directors And Writers Going After Them? FEFKA Production Executive Union General Secretary Shibu G. Sushilan Talks

FEFKA opened up the other day that some actors and actresses are causing problems. It was big news that General Secretary B. Unnikrishnan and the organization's officials directly opened up in the press conference. Some people give dates for movies but never show up. Some people say that the edited version of the film should be shown then and there. FEFKA officials also stated that they are demanding that not only they but also those they need be shown. Actors are asked to re-edit as needed. Such demands make it difficult for directors. B. Unnikrishnan said that they will clarify later who is not cooperating.

 
Following this, FEFKA Production Executive Union General Secretary Shibu G. Sushilan has made a strong response to such allegations. The note he shared on social media is viral. And the new generation of actors used to cause problems on location. Shibu G said that production executives are suffering the most. Sushilan says it openly. Full version of Shibu G. Sushilan's note "As the General Secretary of the FEFKA Production Executive Union, I listens to and tries to solve many problems of the members as well as those of other union colleagues in FEFKA every day. But yesterday, after the FEFKA General Council, a press conference was held about the problems faced by the new generation of actors on location. The most difficult part of this problem is the production Executive section. When the shooting starts, they don't come on time, they don't pick up the phone, and they behave as if we have harmed them. So many headaches. Why should we put up with this? This is my opinion as a member of the Producers Association.
 
Why are filmmakers making films with them? Why are directors and writers going after them? First of all, you should not go after these troublemakers. Let them stay at home in peace. Why should we take away their peace? Why should we pay for headaches, pressure, and sleeplessness? Let them stay at home and sleep well. Don't wake them up. Don't call on their phones. Let them rest as much as they need. Why do we wake up, give money, and lose our sleep? Why should we include those who destroy the film industry like this? Isn't it better for our health to make movies with people who are sincere in their work in peace?
 
I believe that since I have been in cinema for thirty years, I have not done any harm to anyone. But recently I have done great harm to the 'Amma' organisation by giving away the membership to a young actor. Now I feel guilty that I have done an unforgivable wrong to the 'mother' officials. I never dreamed that this young actor would become such a problem for Malayalam cinema.
