On Monday, the Film Studios Setting & Allied Mazdoor Union (FSSAMU) publicly accused Excel Entertainment’s Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani of non-payment of dues to 300 daily-wage workers who served in the production design team of `Mirzapur 3`. The FSSAMU claimed that the production house has outstanding dues of Rs 20-25 lakh as it has not paid the daily wagers from May 2022, while continuing to employ their services as the web series was shot across several studios in Mumbai, and Benares.
