This might be India's first movie to get COVID-19 insurance
Reports suggest Looop Lapeta could become one of the first Indian movies to get a COVID-19 special insurance. "Hypothetically, if a crew member tests positive, the entire unit will have to be quarantined, leading to the shoot being halted. If the film is covered under the insurance plan, the producers will not incur a financial loss stemming from the delay," producer Atul Kasbekar said.
