The Mumbai suburban district collector officers on Wednesday sealed the Cambata Building, which houses EROS theatre, weeks after it filed a first information report against Cambata Aviation and Bird Worldwide Flight Service for allegedly refusing to cooperate with government officials who were confiscating its equipment on court orders.
The sealing of building has also lead to cancellation of movie shows. There is heavy deployment of police in the area.
Taking to micro blogging site, Social activist Anjali Damania wrote, “EROS theatre (Cambata Building) being sealed by Collector Mumbai just now. Cambata workers not going as they aren’t media hungry. They only want action.”

Employees of Cambata Aviation, the ground-handling agency which has ceased operations in Mumbai and Delhi, have been demanding immediate payment of salary and other dues.
Along with Damania, Shiv Sena too has come out in support of the company’s employees.
Last week Damania had met Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray and sought his intervention to ensure that employees were paid their salaries, pending since February 2016.
According to her, over 1200 workers of Cambata Aviation are awaiting settlement of their dues. Addressing a joint press conference with Shiv Sena spokesperson Neelam Gorhe on Wednesday, Damania said four unions led by leaders of various parties had failed to provide justice to workers.
