Corroboration: 3 independent outlets

The Telangana Labour Department has issued notices to Mythri Movie Makers, producers of Ravi Teja's film 'Irumudi', over a complaint about a minor girl's participation in shooting and promotional events. The complaint was filed by C Mahesh Babu, founder-president of Jai Lok Satta (Social Justice Forum), alleging violations of child labour regulations. The Joint Commissioner of Labour, Ranga Reddy Zone, has directed the production team to appear for an inquiry on 4 November at the Anjaiah Karmika Samkshema Bhavan in RTC X Roads. The department seeks documents including District Magistrate permission, parental consent, working hours, attendance, educational arrangements, and safety measures. It also asks whether 20 per cent of the girl's remuneration was deposited in a fixed deposit in her name, and whether language used during promotional events affected her dignity and safety.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The three sources report the same facts from the Labour Department notice, with identical details on the complainant, the inquiry date, and the documents sought. M9.news adds that the inquiry will examine whether promotional event language affected the minor's dignity, a detail also present in telanganatoday.com. Tracktollywood.com's brief summary omits that specific point but confirms the core notice. The coverage is uniform straight reporting with no discernible slant, and all three outlets attribute the complaint to C Mahesh Babu of Jai Lok Satta. The story leaves open what action the department will take after the 4 November inquiry.
