Active Telugu Film Producers Guild (ATFPG) is a body of active Telugu Film Producers formed to bypass the Telugu Film Producers Council (TFPC).
Even though, TFPC is the authorized body to represent the Telugu Producers, the producers who are actively making films feel TFPC is filled with Producers who stopped making films a long ago and they do not have an idea about the current challenges.

Hence, they started this Guild.
The Guild slowly took over all the powers of the Council. It was the Guild that went for the Industry Shutdown in 2022 but it was a big failure.

The Guild has twenty Founding/Life Members with another 77 members.
Even though there is no hierarchy in Guild, Dil Raju was calling shots in every matter.

But for the first time, the other active producers of the Guild overrode Dil Raju.
Dil Raju was pushing for the Percentage System while the remaining producers especially those are actively making films opposed it tooth and nail.
Young producers like Mythri Ravi, Naga Vamsi, Sahu Garapati, Sudhakar Cherukuri, Swapna Dutt, Supriya, and Bapineedu prevailed over Dil Raju.
Pawan Kalyan was snubbed in this matter and Dil Raju will take the major blame.
So, what happens to Dil Raju and the Guild now?
Will Dil Raju continue to actively participate in the Guild and call shots?
The problem is that the active producers are different types.
Nagavamsi barely cares about anything except for he is affected. Also, there is a lack of trust in others about him.
Mythri Ravi who is into making big films but it is doubtful if he agrees to lead.
Supriya is active in Guild affairs but do not know if she is interested. Swapna Dutt is always busy and would stay away from things like this.
Bapineedu is also active in the Guild but not sure if he is interested to lead. Sahu Garapati and Sudhakar Cherukuri always prefer to stay behind the scenes.
So, we will have to see if Dil Raju continues or if we will see a new leadership
