The Producers Guild of India (PGI), the premier association of the leading Indian film, television and digital content producers will launch tomorrow a vaccination drive for its members and associated production crews.
Through these camps, thousands of production house
personnel and crews will be vaccinated over the multi-day drive being held at
Mehboob Studios, starting June 1st 2021.
By now it is an established fact that mass
vaccination is the only effective weapon in the long and deadly war against the
Coronavirus that has ravaged the nation as also its entertainment industry. It
is hoped that this camp shall contribute to the national mission of attaining
universal vaccination and also facilitate safer shooting and content
production.
Expressing appreciation for the many contributions
that enabled this camp, Siddharth Roy Kapur, President of the Producers Guild
of India, said, “An activity of such importance and magnitude cannot be carried
out singlehandedly and we are extremely grateful for the support we have received
to make this possible. In particular from our members Excel Entertainment who
played a pivotal role in securing the vaccines and Mehboob Productions who very
generously offered complimentary use of the spacious Mehboob Studios. We are
happy that we are able to provide this facility to our members, their employees
and the cast and crew of their productions as we work to get the industry back
on its feet again in the weeks ahead.”
