The Telangana rift seem to be shaking Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce now. Telangana Film Protection Force formed to protect the interests of Telangana Artists and Technicians are severely objected to film people donating funds to Hudhud Cyclone Victims but not to the people who sacrificed their lives to Telangana cause and farmers who are committing suicides in the new state.
Telangana Film Protection Force is demanding the immediate division of Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce in to Andhra Pradesh Film Chamber of Commerce and Telangana Film Chamber of Commerce. They are demanding that all the assets of the Film Chamber are to be given 60% to the Telangana Film Chamber of Commerce as Nizam contributes major market for films.
To counter this demands, AP Film Chamber of Commerce renamed itself to Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce previously but the agitators are not satisfied. TFPF also met Chief Minister K Chandra Sekhar Rao and demanded him to release a G.O. that every film made in Hyderabad should have 70% of employees belonging to Telangana itself. The organization vowed to strive till the G.O. is passed.
However the big heads of Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce say there is no meaning in the demands of Chamber division and the industry will perish in both the states if divided.
