The order issued by Maharashtra government stated that social distancing norms will have to be followed strictly with focus on personal hygiene. Maharashtra government on Sunday announced film and television shooting could resume in non-containment zones as a part of the relaxations that the state would undergo in June. The state government issued a 16-page long set of guidelines for producers to follow as and when they begin film and television production. For the permissions to resume shootings, producers will have to apply to managing director of Maharashtra Film, Stage & Cultural Development Corporation Limited, and to district collectors outside Mumbai. Maraṭhi film and TV producer Nitin Vaidya, who is also a member of Indian Film and TV Producers Council, told indianexpress.com that the development came as a huge sigh of relief for the industry.
