Has the pandemic affected even those who are associated with 'Roudram Ranam Rudhiram', one of the biggest projects in the history of Indian cinema? If some reports are to be believed, the answer looks grim.

The buzz is that the makers of the Jr NTR-Ram Charan starrer have conveyed to staff members associated with the period drama that the production house is not going to pay them monthly salaries. Apparently, this suspension of payment is indefinite. The notification must have left those dependent on salaries in the lurch.

The SS Rajamouli directorial is yet to resume its shooting works after its indefinite cancellation in March. The Nandamuri actor and the Mega hero, as also Alia Bhatt and Ajay Devgn and others, may not have been informed as to when the shooting might restart. It's because it's anybody's guess when things will get back to normalcy.

Produced by DVV Danayya, the film will hit the screens in the second half of 2021 if things don't get worse for the film industry.
