The industry still follows the terms and conditions set by the Chennai stunt choreographers. According to the 1996 agreement, if Chennai stunt men are working for a Telugu film, 50 per cent of the work should be allotted to the native workmen. However, this agreement is not has not been honoured by the Chennaiites."
S. Pawan Kumar, General Secretary and G. Chinna, Treasurer, took part in the rally. Presently, the AP cine stuntsmen's association is on an indefinite strike until a solution is found.
