Prabhas' 'The Raja Saab' Producers Address Worker Payment Controversy: People Media Factory Issues Strong Denial

In the bustling world of Telugu cinema, where anticipation often rides high for star-studded projects, a recent controversy cast a shadow over the production of Prabhas' upcoming horror-comedy, 'The Raja Saab.' The film's producers, People Media Factory (PMF), found themselves at the center of allegations concerning unpaid wages to workers from their previous ventures, particularly the recent Ravi Teja starrer 'Eagle.'

Reports circulated, including visuals of workers reportedly gathering outside the production house's office, fueling concerns within the industry about fair worker compensation.

These claims suggested that many daily wage earners and technicians had not received their full dues for projects completed prior to 'The Raja Saab's' high-profile production.

However, People Media Factory was swift to address these serious accusations, issuing a comprehensive statement to clarify their stance and payment protocols.

The renowned production house vehemently denied any intentional withholding of funds, asserting their unwavering commitment to fair and timely compensation for all their collaborators.

In their detailed statement, PMF elaborated on their robust payment system, explaining that they adhere to a standard industry practice: 70-80% of wages are disbursed upfront, with the remaining 20-30% settled upon the completion of work and submission of final bills.

They clarified that all legitimate dues for the film 'Eagle' have either been fully cleared or are currently in the final stages of processing and validation.

The production house acknowledged that minor delays, if any, could arise due to internal account discrepancies or the need for thorough validation of submitted bills.

They stressed that such issues are always promptly addressed and resolved, maintaining that their policy strictly prohibits the deliberate withholding of any legitimate payments due to workers or technicians.

People Media Factory reiterated its dedication to fostering a supportive and ethical work environment.

They emphasized their pride in upholding industry standards and ensuring that all their film projects contribute positively to the livelihoods of thousands of individuals. With 'The Raja Saab' gearing up for what promises to be a grand release, PMF aims to put these payment allegations firmly behind them, focusing on delivering a cinematic experience worthy of its star and the high expectations surrounding it.
