Last week, anonymous Instagram handle Diet Sabya accused TFM 360, a model management agency owned by designer Ashish N Soni, of non-payment of dues to its models. According to the social media page, the agency had withheld fees of several artists since 2018.
Model Arlette Grao, who had been one of the agency's talents between February 2016 and August 2018, claims that the company owes over Rs 70 lakh to its 30-plus models. She says that things came to a head in late 2018 as she had not received a penny despite working through the year. "I have bank statements to support this. I eventually quit the agency. I waited my contract period and cooling-off period before starting off as a freelance model. Once I started freelancing, I realised there are multiple models whose payments are stuck with the company," says Grao.
