Mukesh Bhatt, Film producer and Vice president of Film Producers` Guild spoke out on this year’s Budget...

Exempting the film industry from the service tax is the best gift given by the finance minister. Had it been included, the entire industry would have been wiped out.

There is no strike happening and I am happy and thankful with this decision. The film industry should not be burdened with the service tax.
