•Indian movies are becoming famous all
over the world but our Indian movies release outside India don’t have subtitles
in their releases. So many foreign audience avoid our Indian cinema. If govt
can setup institutes to help for subtitles/ dubbing for movies at best price
will help. Subtitles are required for foreign institutions to support us for
bigger awards and recognise talent and understand India.
•Dubbing of Indian regional language
movies to foreign languages like English, Chinese, Korean and French will give
us a big reach. The above institute setup should enable dubbing of movies in
both foreign and Indian languages to maximise earnings from movies and earn
FOREX.
•The payment of salaries of technicians,
film industry actors must be brought under banking system to overcome tax
loopholes. Some of the producers pay half salary in cheque and remaining as
gifts like cars, house or bungalows to enable
overcoming taxation or foreign trips to actors. So a separate tax and
intelligence wing must be formed to monitor producers who use bad techniques to
overcome taxation. Some of them make movies and don’t release or make just few
theatres release purposefully to report loss and overcome taxation. Out of the number
of movies many don’t release due to various reasons some of them don’t release purposefully
to
report losses. Lot of hawala trade happens in movie business. Hence govt must
form a financial intelligence agency, cb-cid, tax authorities to constantly monitor
film industry.
•Some movies release with U/A and children
of very small age come and watch the movies. Police are not placed near movie
entrance to request parents to take their children back home as even small
scenes with A grade will affect the children in significant way. If u/a then
theatre owners must be strictly instructed to not allow children of age less
than the
limit mentioned by censors. A small technique can be followed by ticket booking
agents to get age details of people who will watch the movie to prevent black
ticket sales and also the online booking website can prevent booking if a U/A
movie is going to be watched by children. So online booking process change,
theatre owners and police must take steps. Some A rated movies for too much
violence are being watched by children which is not healthy sign.
•License for movie theatres around India
must have some general procedures to prevent interference by state govt. The
emergency exits, safety measures like fire extinguisher, water sprayers must be
requested to put up before approval. Malls create cramped exits for cinema
theatres.
•Security checks at movie theatres must be
setup up by scanning bags and x-ray device scanning with hand held devices to
prevent bomb threat issues in future and pass through metal detectors to enable
better security. Many theatres are being very casual about security and fire
threat
•Service tax or extra charges put on
online ticket booking will help bring lot of tax revenue for government.
•Currently TamilNadu Govt restricts price
of tickets but theatres and movies are not able to recover the cost of movie.
Hence theatres must be allowed to fix rates or increased at 6% year on year to
include inflation cost. IMAX cinema technology not present in TN due to low
ticket cost
