Balakrishna gave the cheque for CCC to its Executive member C Kalyan. This CCC was initiated by Megastar Chiranjeevi to help the Telugu Film Industry (TFI) workers, who have now lost their livelihood due to the ban on shooting. The Indian Government has announced a 21-day lockdown across the country, to prevent the spread of the COVID-19 Corona Virus Pandemic. In view of this, shooting has been stopped in all language industries, in India and theatres have also been shut down. Most of the technicians working in Cinema, depend on their daily wages for their livelihood and this shutdown has affected them and their families badly! The efforts of the CCC will go a long way in providing atleast some basic relief to these cinema workers!
