Cultural Capital has no liking for music, lit gatherings

Mysuru: The city, hailed as the Cultural Capital of the state, is grappling with a unique challenge as artists and organisers witness a sharp decline in audiences for cultural events, including theatre performances, music concerts, and literary gatherings. This dwindling attendance at performances has sparked concerns about the future of cultural activities in the city. Artists and organisers note that the younger generation has largely distanced itself from cultural spaces and activities. Organisers report that literary events and cultural programmes lacking prominent names struggle to draw public interest, often resulting in performances before empty seats. Consequently, many organisers are shifting their focus to educational institutions, where students form a captive audience. Stakeholders attribute this trend to various factors. Indian classical music promoter Himamshu CR, involved in several music events and organisations, confirmed this trend, stating that today's audiences prefer concerts featuring well-known artists. "The music scene in Bengaluru is far more vibrant compared to Mysuru in terms of audience engagement," he said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Your Finger Shape Says a Lot About Your Personality, Read Now Tips and Tricks Undo "We can't get star artists every time. For others, the response is not encouraging," Himamshu, who is the grand-nephew of celebrated violinist Pitil Chowdaiah, said. Dasara offers opportunity to build interest: Music promoter He further noted that the Dasara festival in Mysuru offers an excellent opportunity to foster public interest in music and draw crowds to such events. "Unfortunately, poor planning by authorities has squandered this platform. There is an urgent need to cultivate interest in music among the public," he emphasised. KS Shivaramu, president of Mysuru Taluk Kannada Sahitya Parishat, admitted that literary events are experiencing a severe shortage of attendees and readers. "Both writers and readers share responsibility for this decline. As the quality of writing and books diminishes, readers are drifting away from these events," he said. Literary environment absent: Satish Javaregowda T Satish Javaregowda, president of Spandana Samskrutika Parishat, pointed to multiple reasons for this trend. "The literary environment is absent in today's schools and colleges, which has hindered efforts to spark interest in fine arts and literary activities among the youth," he said. He added, "Many organisers also lack discipline in managing literary events, which negatively impacts other cultural programmes as well. " Actor and theatre director Mandya Ramesh highlighted that the current education system fails to connect students with theatre, arts, and music. "To address this, our schools, colleges, and universities must prioritise engaging students in these fields," he urged. Sudarshan MD, assistant director of the Kannada and culture department, noted that fine arts activities struggled to attract audiences during the Covid-19 period. "However, the situation has since improved," he said.

Tollywood faces shutdown over wage dispute

The Telugu film industry, popularly known as Tollywood, has come to a grinding halt after the Telugu Film Employees Federation called for an indefinite strike. The strike follows a prolonged standoff between the Federation and the Telugu Film Producers Council and Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce over a demand for wage revisions. The Federation, representing over 10,000 workers from 24 departments—including set workers, costume assistants, lighting crews, and other key technicians—is demanding a 30% hike in daily wages, currently set at ₹1,400. They argue that the rates have remained unchanged for the past three years, impacting thousands of livelihoods. Speaking on the matter, former Federation General Secretary Rajeswar Reddy said, 'Despite multiple meetings with producers, there has been no real progress. We've waited long enough. Now, our workers will not report to duty until our demands are met.' He added that producers often spend crores on top-tier technicians but fail to support the base-level workforce that keeps the sets running. Several major film shoots, including big-budget productions and web series, have been forced to pause as workers across all 24 categories join the strike. In response, the Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce issued an official statement condemning the Federation's action. 'The Federation is unilaterally demanding a 30% wage increase. We are already paying wages that exceed the minimum wage laws for both skilled and unskilled labor,' said K.L. Damodar Prasad, Honorary Secretary of the Chamber. The statement added that the strike would result in severe losses for producers and disrupt production schedules across the board. It urged producers not to enter into independent agreements with any unions and to wait for a collective resolution. While the Chamber maintains that it is working with authorities to find a sustainable solution, the Federation remains firm in its stand. They have rejected the producers' offer of a 5% hike and are demanding a written commitment confirming a 30% wage increase. Until then, the Tollywood workforce remains off the sets, holding firm for what they believe is a long-overdue pay revision, marking a significant moment of unrest in the Telugu film industry.
