The sudden death of Bengali actor Rahul Arunoday Banerjee has sent shockwaves through the Bengali film industry. The actor drowned while shooting for the TV series Bholebaba Paar Karega at Talsari beach in Odisha.
The All Indian Cine Workers Association (AICWA) has demanded strict action against the producers, stating that the incident reflects a 'systemic failure and prima facie criminal negligence.'
AICWA has urged the Chief Ministers of West Bengal and Odisha to register an FIR against the producers, initiate a judicial inquiry, and ensure compensation for the actor's family.
The association has also demanded a blacklist of the producers, production house, and the concerned channel involved in the project, and a complete ban on their future operations within the Indian film and television industry.
