The method tried out in Bollywood and in Telugu film industry is now coming to Kannada filmdom.

‘Production No 1’ producer Surendra Reddy an ace cameraman in his maiden film is giving only 50 percent of remuneration to artists and technicians initially. This Kannada film is starring the handsome hunk Raghu Mukerjee and Pooja Gandhi in the lead role.

Addressing the media on Friday afternoon in Bangalore Surendra Reddy says he believes in hard work and sincerity. After the film makes profit the team members would get their share equally and that would be more than the 50 percent of their remuneration.
