Zee Entertainment Enterprises (ZEE) has offered financial help to over 5,000 daily wage earners, working directly or indirectly in company’s various productions. The company will also match the voluntary contributions made by the employees to the PM Cares fund through an internal portal.

In the past two months, the industry has lost about Rs 2,000 crore as stay-at-home orders and social distancing norms kept moviegoers away.

English movies registered a 91% increase in viewership for the week ended April 10 from the pre-lockdown period, while for English general entertainment channels, the figure was 41%, according to BARC India data sourced from subscribers.

"Given the way the industry is impacted by the Covid-19 outbreak, we believe this business will not be the same. I don’t think that there is any growth in the theatrical business as social distancing will be the new normal for another 18 months," said Kishore Lulla, chairman of Eros International
