Bollywood actors and crew aged over 65 will be allowed to resume shoots, an industry official said Friday (Aug 7), after an Indian court overturned coronavirus restrictions limiting the presence of older people on film sets.

The world's most prolific film industry has been struggling to get back on its feet after strict rules banning elaborate scenes and barring senior actors from shoots were unveiled in June.
