The Movie Artists Association (MAA) is a trade union which represents over 900 principal and background performers working in Telugu cinema. It was started on 4 October 1993, with the collective vision and efforts of stalwarts like Akkineni Nageswara Rao, Krishnam Raju, Krishna, Murali Mohan, Mohan Babu and other senior artists. Chiranjeevi was the maiden president of the MAA.[2][3]
The objectives of the MAA include the resolution of issues related to artists, arbitration of disputes between the producers and artists, and initiation of measures covering the well-being of the MAA members. During the initial days of the organization, Akkineni Nageswara Rao, Krishnam Raju, Krishna, Murali Mohan, extended their services as advisors.[4] Before the full-fledged formation of the MAA, its functions were operated from the residence of Murali Mohan for a few months.[5]
The MAA is currently administered from the Andhra Pradesh Film Chamber of Commerce Building located at Film Nagar, Hyderabad, Telangana and the current president is Vishnu Manchu who won MAA election in April 2024.
