Industry groups in India's Hindi-language film sector are discussing a proposal to set maximum daily work hours for cast and crew. The measure would address schedules that commonly run between 12 and 18 hours and occasionally continue beyond a full day. Proponents argue the change would improve safety and health standards on sets.

Opponents say the restriction could increase production costs and delay project timelines. No final decision has been reached, and discussions are continuing among production companies, unions, and studio representatives.
