The Movie Artists Association (MAA) is a trade union that represents over 900 principal and background performers working in Telugu cinema. It was started on October 4, 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 stated objectives of the MAA include resolving issues related to artists, arbitration of disputes between producers and artists, and initiating measures that cover MAA members' well-being. 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.
