Neetu Chandra recently relayed a statement that she was harassed by Dr. Rajasekhar and his wife Jeevitha. Her allegation made a soar in the industry and numerous questions were putforth regarding the rights of artistes in tollywood.
MAA, Andhra Pradesh Movie Artistes Association has a regulated threefold system of solving such issues. The coordinate committee usually handles the petty problems between artistes and producers. It gets promoted to the Film Chamber of Commerce if the disputants are directors and senior stars.
Murali Mohan, president of MAA says that an actress should either approach the council for her rights or the police. She shouldn’t file a case before we sought it out. On the contrary, an advocate of high court, P. Subhash advices women to register a complaint in the IPC section if she was harassed, molested or degraded by any means.
Even though such laws prevail most female artistes hesitate to seek the government’s help as that would spoil their career and will put an end to their survival in the industry. So, many of them tend to stay apart and sort out the issue by other means or through the council. Overall, the verdict on Neetu Chandra’s issue is yet to be out for now.
