Actors explore new union options in Kerala film industry

KOCHI: A group of actors from the Association of Malayalam Movie Artists is seeking to break away and form a new trade union with the Film Employees Federation of Kerala (FEFKA), a move that could potentially weaken the AMMA, which is already reeling from sex-scandal allegations against some of its prominent members.

According to an industry official, certain actors have approached the FEFKA to register a new union.

B Unnikrishnan, the general secretary of the FEFKA, a confederation of 21 trade unions in Kerala's film industry, told reporters on Thursday that some of the actors have met him, expressing interest in forming a new trade union.
