The Cine and TV Artistes' Association (CINTAA) has appealed to the Indian government for an "industry status".
The association, while making its demand, cited the film industry's huge contribution to the Indian economy every year.
"CINTAA #DemandForIndustryStatus : Mr. #SudeshBerry.

The official page also shared a picture of actor Sudesh Berry standing with placard in his hands which reads: "#ChangeOurLivesForBetter. Bharat sarkar se hamari maang film-TV udyog ko miley industry ka darja." (We request the Indian government to give the film and television industry the status of an industry.)
