The Best Shows & Documentaries of 2021 You Haven't Heard Of: www.filmcompanion.in/fc-lists/best-tv-shows-on-netflix-amazon-prime-hotstar-documentaries-you-havent-heard-of-reservation-dogs-14-peaks/
It is because of the Hegemony of some of these producer who don't give space to good story writer....and also their love for Good Muslim and Bad Hindu storytelling and some stupid over the top drama....some brainless comedy.....that is why the coming decade will be dominated by south movies for pan India films because they have invested in real home grown stories and not copy of Korean or west movies that lack Indian culture and style...
It's refreshing to see when as producers they aren't blaming the pandemic and acknowledging that there is a lack of good writing in the Hindi film industry.
Someone's should sue her ist , coz she made gully boy copy of 8 mile and sent that film gladly for Oscar and got rejected in draft 😂😂😂 that was biggest stupidity .. on other hand there was brilliant original movie called TUMBAD , go watch that movie and also it's making ...that was Oscar movie
@@TheSexyrean mostly everyone in this comment section has probably seen Tumbad and 8 mile. The fact that you think gully boy is a ''copy'' of 8 miles tells everything one needs to know about your intelligence.
@@balkaransingh7372 ooo really ??? And wherr exactly you did this research work ??? that everyone has watched TUMBAD ??? Mr Smart!!! Before making judgement about my intelligence go and read again the comment . Infact I want to sue you for your stupidity !
@@TheSexyrean I said ‘mostly’ and ‘in this comment section’ of a film producer’s discussion round table, which is not the same as everyone in general. You actually need to sue yourself for your stupidity, no need to give a proof of your lack of intelligence multiple times.
Would love to see a discussion on the female actors who are getting first and second chances on streaming platforms. This is revolutionary for the industry. For example, Lara Dutta, Dia Mirza, Sushmita Sen, Karisma Kapoor, etc. who got leading roles in their own shows - this is unheard of! Some of the shows worked, some didn't but there will be more and it is refreshing to see them play full parts as opposed to just eye candy in movies about men.
Karisma Kapoor needs to return and do some powerful female centric films like Shakti:The Power and Zubeidaa:The Story of a Princess which she did in the early 2000s
Karan Johar is clearly a very bright guy and his insights into the workings on the film industry is brilliant! That said, this is a great panel and its nice to hear these perspectives. If I had one suggestion, it would be to include producers from other parts of India too like the Telugu, Tamil and Malayalam film industry since they too play in the same league as these guys, as far as numbers go.
I agree. But truth be told tollywood doesn't like bollywood. I mean the first crossover film was bahubali thanks to Karan Johar. If you see the coffee with Karan episode with rajamouli, he made it very apparent why he dislikes bollywood and its ways. I agree completely about Karan's insights on the filmmaking business. It's amazing how he's evolved from the actor reject, to director appealing to upper and nri class to now balancing head and heart as a sharp producer. This role suits him the best!
absoLUTELY also another addition to ur first point and why i think that is so true also bcuz u can CLEARLY SEE that kjo is working more with telugu directors now.
@@dewclipstrailers5325 Do you know the NEPOTISM in Tollywood,it's running by nepotism,all these DOWN TO EARTH STARS are products of nepotism, stop being hypocritic. In Bollywood there is a Raj Kumar or Ayushman who win national awards but the whole nominations list in Tollywood's filmfare is filled with nepotism . P.S I am Telugu person
Karan Johar’s business acumen is under appreciated. 🤷🏻♂️ I’ve seen all the past producer round tables and I’m just so pleasantly surprised by Karan Johar every time. His success is not a fluke. Respect.
we all troll successful people... that's so wrong....we need to learn from them instead. Unless u hv X-factor u can't reach that level of success. When people like Salman, Karan, Ekta are trolled I feel sad...they employ lots of people both inside and outside the industry, support entertainment industry immensely in multiple ways... RESPECT!!!
Finally bollywood producers recognize importance of content rather than masala.Its happy to see they discussing "Great Indian kitchen","nayattu" and Fahad! May be more "indian" movies would be the result!
@R R Doesn't matter? So success doesn't matter and we should start trolling people on the basis of what future generations will like? Those films were made in the past in a time when people liked that. Why should we judge a film from 2000 based on the standards and taste of 2050?😂😂 Thats like saying Friends(1994-2004) is shite because the woke brigade has issues with the show in 2022.
One thing that is common with all producer adda over the years is they acknowledge writers to be empowered but nothing happens and the narrative stays same..
Most of the bollywood movies is not worth a 300 bucks anymore. I rather watch a Hollywood movie for the theatrical experience. The A listers can't really save ur pathetic movie any longer. We the audience have got smarter and want the value for our money.
I get so surprised when now a days i listen to KJO as he speaks more like a trader than a creative producer. People may like or dislike him or his films but i still feel he is one of the best creative brain of film industry.
i like Zoya and Karans interviews 👍❤️In this interview Karan Johar was brutally honest and said so many practical things about the movie business 👏👏👏Which is a sad reality of today's actors 🔥🔥🔥
I love love love hearing KJo. He may come across as funny, frivolous, clothes monger, etc whatever! but I think he has a brilliant eye for talent, a ticklish funny bone, wacky sense of humor and great respect for all regions of cinema. Thank you Anupama Ma'am for bringing this panel together. And Zoya is always a shining star apart. Cant wait for Jee le Zara!
It was amazing how he jumped the bandwagon and got the rights for presenting Babubali in Hindi and made millions. That man knows what ticks the audience
I have grown up watching south indian hindi dubbed movies. Thats how RRR actually has a great buzz coz people actually know Jr NTR and Ramcharan in north through satellite.
The biggest problem is going to theatre and watch a movie is super expensive. Not just in terms of money it terms of time and effort. To watch a 2:30 hrs movie you drive 2 hours and in total it comes to 5-6 hours thing. Money wise 2 tickets cost at-least 800 to 1000, parking cost 100, petrol cost 300, popcorn cost you 600 and then watching a horrible film and come home makes you frustrated and make you never ever go for a movie. That’s why most of us don’t go to theatres any more unless we are 200% sure it’s a value for money.
People who are commenting about "Who pays 800-1000", try to see what kind of point he is trying to make. Different places in India have different price points but the places where we spend our hard earned money is perfectly summarised above. Apart from the pre and post requisites of watching a movie in theatre, we also pay for the OTT platforms which will host these movies in 1-2months. Now ask yourself if you really want to go to the theatre for every Friday released movie.
This is the thing i love about kjo..that he is not an ignorant. He keeps an eye on each and every good stuff that are being produced no matter which part of India and at what level of production.. he's a true cinephile✨
I think the oldest 3 heroine movie was Aag by a very young and highly talented Actor/producer Raj kapoor.of course Karan mentioned Ashanti immediately.
Dhamka is a great movie.. karan Johar earlier bullied Sushant Singh Rajput and now bullying kartik aryan ..shame 😠😠..it's a high content movie which you couldn't make. .. Bollywood is alive only bcos of actors like Rajkumar Rao and kartik aryan 😏😏. Talk abt ur nepo kids ..who all are flop. .. sara ali khan ,Janhvi kapoor . 😂😂😂
@@gmgorgeousstar5879 Dhamaka is a complete out and out copy of a Korean movie “The terror live” each and every single scene is copied as it is. I was shocked.
This was a very insightful roundtable. Thank you FC. I wonder if it's the same in Hollywood, this sad and unfair norm of prioritising celebrity and star fees over that of film crew (and screenwriters). With Zoya Akhtar and Karan Johar mentioning it here, I'm getting the impression they don't have the power to change it. But I've always assumed that these things are usually within producer jurisdiction. In any case and I think if there are strong guilds for these various film crew departments they might be able to come up with a benchmark figure that producers and execs are not allowed to go lower on. That we are still debating whether or not film crew deserve to be handsomely remunerated and rewarded for all the blood and sweat they bring to a film is very problematic. Pay your film crew. Pay your writers too! Screenwriters have been treated really unfairly in this area too. So much to be said. Zoya makes such great points, so admirable. I agree with the point about Malayalam films and nuance. The Great Indian Kitchen was so good, such a beautiful surprise. It felt like I was unwrapping a very thoughtful and uncanny present.
The first 7 plus minutes of the interview is Anupama desperately trying to get a straight-forward answer to her straight-forward question on the quality of hindi cinema today and audiences expectation of content. It’s funny and frustrating to see how these A-list producers are beating around the bush and saying everything but answering what they were asked about.
Bang on roundtable. All the credit goes to Anupama Chopra for asking such bold and relevant questions. Not just praising the celebs. The only main stream critic left with some logical understanding of whats happening in cinema and open to have a conversation. Will be interesting to watch another roundtable with 90s actresses who did a comeback this year.
I don't think there exists an interview with Zoya that I've missed!🙂 I'd have liked to hear more from Reema. She's wonderful, too! Thank you for having this conversation and asking all the questions that are also on our minds, Film Companion💙💙
Could it be that the elite capture of Hindi film cinema has literally eroded that grassroots authentic grasp it had on it's audience. I very recently got into South Indian films (and I don't know any south languages) but just the mere earthiness (for the lack of a better word) of the films put me through emotions I have never experienced with Indian films before. We can just start with actors and actresses.. Southern actors and actresses look REAL. Their bodies that look real, and I am not against the glamour of the mainstream but when you see an Alia or Jhanvi or Katrina or Anushka on screen, they look so pristine, so far far away from even the supporting cast and background artists surrounding them. Even though Alia did a good job in Gully Boy and Raazi, there is always an element of realness missing. You never lose sight that you're watching Alia Bhatt. I find that is not the case with south Actors. The capacity to just become the character is immaculate. Maybe because they are more grounded overall and maybe the south has not seen the same kind of elite capture.. I am not sure. I find that many times, many hindi actors have nothing intellectual to say about their roles, and that gives me even more of a sense of how they are really not rooted in the reality they are trying to sell us. I think what connected people really to Rajkumar ot Ayushmann is that they have some of that earthiness. But even that is not enough. The real leap is how does the Hindi cinema get over it's elite pandemic that is making people feel so alienated from the films and the stories. And realistically without using tropes of religion or nationalism, can hindi cinema actually pull an audience with real stories? That's the question to really ask.
This is partially true to an extent. Hindi cinema needs a re-imagination to be relevant to its audience in an increasingly globalised, competitive world. South understands that authenticity is their asset. People watch it because they know what to expect from it. The southern touch so to speak. Hindi has a built in default audience of 7-10 states which Hindi speakers inhabit. But these 7-10 states are diverse and have their own cultures and aspirations. Unless you represent that, you will lose out to more authentic content from other regions.
Karan needs his own platform.. channel.. he is simply amazing!! ❤️ Kudos and trust Anupama Chopra to come up with questions and content. Hats off to her for telling Nikhil upfront that Satyamev Jayate 2 was unwatchable 😂
Super impressed with Karan he is so intelligent and have so much knowledge about industry.. Can't believe he is same guy gossiping in KWK.. He is like a student who's good in studies as well as good in extra curricular activities😁
karan Johar earlier bullied Sushant Singh Rajput and now bullying kartik aryan ..shame 😠😠..it's a high content movie which you couldn't make. .. Bollywood is alive only bcos of actors like Rajkumar Rao and kartik aryan 😏😏. Talk abt ur nepo kids ..who all are flop. .. sara ali khan ,Janhvi kapoor . 😂😂😂...where is Originality in Bollywood ..they copy 8 miles from Hollywood nd south movies ?? ..that's why they can never get ahead. Nd suck up to old bullshit 😏😏😏
These producers happy to pay 5-10Cr. for the rights of the South Movies in return they got "An Original Story" n a Template to shoot, But they r not willing to pay Half of that amount to Mumbai based Screenwriters for their Orignal Stories.. thats where they r lacking from South..
@@user-yk5lv8iw8x that cast would have worked maybe in 2015, half of the movie goers today don't recognise them! Also since it's a road trip movie, we connect with a generation who actually goes on road trips with friends. Having these known mega stars makes it exciting atleast for me!
Karan’s business mind is criticised but he is really good at what his job is as a producer. He might not be a great director (but he is better than many at that too) but he is absolutely fantastic producer. The thing he mentioned about not being surprised on Friday, about both success or failure, simply shows he always ready with homework done. It’s foolish to spend your own money and not be aware of things.
The movie which was discussed about was Megastar Chiranjeevi's "Indra" which was a biggest Blockbuster and grosser with intense and powerful performance of Megastar. And AA's Pushpa started with 3cr and there is gradual increase in the collections ❤️
@@Lol-os2uh I'm not saying small producers can't, but that's what happened with Karan Johar, Kartik hiked his price mid project, which led to Karan terminating the contract
Let's put it in simple words: Most Hindi films are made to make money and not the perspective from celebrating cinema or presenting Art which doesn't work anymore. We need a "sensible and convincing story".
Its applicable everywhere , as much as I agree with earning money coz come on ppl have bills to pay and run the home , but art is compromised . Then what about all Nolan's , Wachowski sisters and Denis Villenueve's films which are made on large budget scale and still appreciated by audience. A film like John Wick is almost made on 50 % low budget but still loved by people .Sairat , a film which is not even best work like Fandry , Pistulya directed by National award winning director Nagraj Manjule made 110 crore worldwide . Fun fact about Sairat is none of the actors selected for the film have acting background, still they acted so awesome as compared to soft actors and even Rinku Rajguru got a National award special mention . All the actors in the film are locals from Solapur district . A lot of regional films earn not on basis of star , but stories . Nagraj Manjule is a living legend and hit the bull's eye and is one of the succesful directors and producers in our industry after Anurag Kashyap . These guys know that good stories matter and they have given chances to so many raw talents of our country and their careers have been made and they all are stars now . And talking about sensible story , its happening since 2010s , when fresh talent started making mark and underrated gems became stars . Times are changing , plus dont rely on just one industry , there are lot of industries in our country which are making a mark .
JUST WATCH TOLLYWOOD Y'ALL LOSE HOPES ON GETTING THAT GREAT FILMS FROM BWOOD,AT BEST YOU'LL GET AN AVG FILM LIKE ATRANGI RE WHICH ALSO IS THE ONLY DECENT FILM IVE SEEN OF BOLLYWOOD(ALSO HALF KOLLYWOOD,PROLLY WHY THE STORYLINE WAS DECENT)MAYBE IM BEING A LITTLE TOO HARSH HERE AND CALL IT THAT,BUT YOU CANT BE RELUCTANT TO WATCH TELUGU MOVIES JUST BECAUSE OF THE LANGUAGE OH C'MON. the people like rajamouli are literally the PRIDE OF THE COUNTRY,and I CAN SAY THAT PROUDLY
@@na-hg3ch I think people start thinking Hindi films are crap, because you are aware almost 75% which are being made and when they are coming, but in case of south movie we are only aware about 5% movies which are already available on OTT or released in Theatre, so other 95℅ south films which are crap we dont now they exist, And BY the SS Rajamouli is famous for copying scen from so many Hollywood films he is just another Commercial director who know how to make mindless entertaining movies like Rohit shetty, they are so many Directora in South who are way better than him, from last 2-3 years People have developed the mind set that every south film are great thanks to Hindi movie channel which shows hindi dubbed version of south films which is not true, people of northern part of india have seen only films which are good, and if acting is concern I think only Tamil actors and malayalam actors are great (I am talking about actors who play lead role like Dhanush, vikram, fahad fassil, dulqar and so on) but telugu actors are not up to the mark only Vijay deverakonda is able to give decent performance in films like arjun reddy, dear comrade and even surprisely in world famous lover. And we can only blame hindi film director and producer who started making remakes of south films for easy money but south film makers also make hindi films remake for example rajnikant made his entire career by remaking Amitabh Bachchans films. Its always happened
On the conversation around paying top actors xx amount because they will be able to recover xx amount post-release, I feel this argument stems from the fact that we market actors to audiences and the technical crew is the obvious scapegoat in this scenario. What I am trying to say is that we tell people, watch this movie because this STAR is in it. I guess it's time we start marketing the crew to the audiences -- who's the director? who's the producer? who's the writer? Position those faces as your heros, dont rely on actors for your star-branding. And we might see a positive shift in pay gaps to technical crew and subsequent quality of movies that we churn out.
Because of someone like Anupama, we are even talking about this. She wants to have that intellectual conversation about things beyond commerce, collaboration, profits, numbers. She keeps steering the discussion about art, content, quality, value. I’m so happy that she opened the round table with comparing Bollywood to the Malayalam & Tamil cinema. It was like showing mirror to these top people in showbiz. I think this mostly because the stakes are so high in Bollywood. People like Akshay who are on a binge of working on back to back projects at such a tight schedule that it almost impossible to reach a certain level of quality in the movie. People on the round table got to understand that they are investing in massive projects with huge stars at the expense of art. I see each one sitting there has capability of making an artistically beautiful movie that is commercially popular. We need to have more of such discussions.
Producers vaccinated their crew because they were compelled to do so. Otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to make their movies. Don't make it sound like you did it out of compassion or your goodness of heart.
*Dishonesty* says the women whose whole movie has literally been sneaked from 8mile and if thats not enough,it was sent to oscars... GOSH!!Why am I alive?!?!
The irony is that everyone speaks against some assumptions..only to return next year and tell about same assumptions..if such influential people cannot change things who can?
Audience..till the day people blindly watch stars in any shit movie. This is going to happen and they are going to charge the moon cutting the remuneration and quality of technicians and the movie...producers can't do this because they have to pay the stars for the movie to work...
I think Anupama Chopra is one of the best interviewer I have seen. She always asks intelligent questions and gives full time for the interviewee to respond. Kudos to her. 👏
Who is Karan Stupid Johar to decide which actor deserves what paycheck or not.. no actor is stupid enough to ask for more than the market value.. if Karthik has reached thus stage of his career let him also earn money.. Karan too make fortunes by selling his mivies to Digital.. Who in the name of God is karan to mock new deserving actors?
I know as proud malayalee film enthusiast that I don't need Karan Johar's stamp of approval.. but my heart is swelling with pride. 💕 #fahadhfassil #dulqersalman #nayattu # thegreatindiankitchen
It's true. But the span they have as just an individual might be so bigger than the entire malayalam film industry's. So spreading our cinemas through them is something I think we all look at positively.
I am not Bollywood film watcher. I see a few films which get a positive feedback like andhadhun, barelly ki barfi or stri. I much more watch Malayalam and tamil due to the quality of content. But in my heart, I want the Bollywood to comeback strongly creatively and financially. Because the way in which Bollywood has increased visibility and market for Indian films, no other industry has done that. Once the world sees Bollywood, then they are likely to watch Telugu, Tamil or Malayalam later. Reaction channels in youtube is s an eg for this. Second reason is the soft power which Bollywood brings for the nation is immense. 3 idiots / Dangal has projected such positive impact for India in southeast Asia. If Bollywood gives chance to newcomers in all the fields, ultimately good people will emerge. However this requires taking chance. At least for every five movies, if they try some outrageous idea for one; they might discover next Anurag Kashyap. It is also important to give people a break when they are young. Take an eg of Tamil industry ; directors like Atlee, Karthik subbaraj etc made films with superstars when they are so young. If they had given Manoj Bajpai a break 15 years earlier, he would have played roles which Rajkumar rao is now playing. This roundtable definitely missed Dinesh Vijan who bankrolled small picture hits
Indian don't realise how popular bollywood is outside of India. Its our true soft power, exporting our culture and language to other countries, A country like afghanistan learned Hindi by watching bollywood movies. Bollywood is also watched in middle east and african countries. Chinese president Xi after watching dangal, he said i would like to see more bollywood movies screened in China. In my opinion, Bollywood can be, What Hollywood is for America.. Bollywood can open other new markets for themselves and also for our regional movie industry. It will benefit everyone.. Nowadays bollywood lacks, A good movie script and also they are making mostly metro centric movies. They don't know how to make a good masala movie like south. Otherwise Bollywood is good it has given many iconic movies. The reason why it's popular outside of India.
@@Hello-kh6bk exactly, bollywood needs to relearn how to make the entertaining movies that it used to make earlier. And also , incorporate more original songs in the movies in a proper way.
48:35 Hearing Karan Johar, it looks like he is doubtful of Brahmastra. However, the teaser is a complete letdown. Movie looks like 90s Shaktiman serial vfx
I thought the same but wondered if I was reading too much into it . The way he described how much time they had spent and then said " I hope it does well " not it will yet he speaks so confidently about other stuff.
I hope it won't be a flop.Ranbir and Alia are very good actors and Ayan is a talented director.There is Big B,Nagarjuna,Mouni Roy.Their hard work of 7-8 years shouldn't go in vain.
Reema Kagti Ji's Crocs are my favorite! How relaxed and organic this person is! The conversation was insightful. Samir Ji's and Nikhil ji's soft calm demeanor has my heart and Zoya Ji's and Karan's grip on cinema is aspiring and charming. Lastly, Out of sheer curiosity, I really wanna know the name of 135 cr actor @nikhil advani ji.
pushpa is on the way to get 50cr nett in hindi only with limited screens.that's freaking amazing with no promotions.Bollywood should get a reality check.
It was fantastic as always. Just a suggestion though ..when u r inviting Zoya I think there is no need for reema or vice versa coz I think they share the same school of thought and their work is also similar. Only one of them would suffice and someone else would have added another paradigm to the conversation 👍
The only answer to the first question should have been that "YES WE AGREE THAT SOUTH INDIAN OR FOR THAT MATTER EVERY OTHER INDUSTRY IS DOING A BETTER JOB THAN US " please acknowledge that .
I believe kartik hasn't reached that stage where he can actually do all these things. He is talking about everyone. .. all of them r demanding alot more than they did before pandemic
Those roundtables are so good, you guys should consider add subtitles for accessbility (for the hearing impaired and people who don't have English as a 1st language)
From 20:00 to 30:00 Nikhil Advani is pointing towards Akshay Kumar as akki considers 9 is his lucky number hai.and recently Thier was a news about him charging 135-150 cr for a movie. And 6 hero hai 2 jail mein I think he is referring to SRK n Salman may be becoz of all court cases.
Unlike what some are saying, I don't think Karan interrupted anyone. On the contrary, I love hearing his thoughts, one of the sharpest minds in the business and so articulate.
2 challenges for hindi : 1st from Telugu in terms of box office....For eg pushpa(hindi dubbed) collection...Next is Rrr, prabhas movies etc...Most telugu superstars make mass films also and tamil superstars 2nd challenge :Malayalam and tamil produces best mid budget quality films and hindi audience watch it from OTT, so whenever a hindi midbudget film releases,it will be unable to attract audience to theatre because they r watching great films from Ott So bollywood need big budget, quality films from now onwards... This is the challenge for hindi from south industries...
@@cyke1234 Bahubali 1 Released in 2015 . Now, Tollywood box office expanded. RRR only Telugu Version First Net collection will be more than 65+ Crores. Do you know RRR pre release business is 900 Crores.
For the first time i felt Karan is wrong. Producer has the power to bring in new actors, pay more the technicians. Why he is still paying the delusional actors hefty cheques
Karan is wrong! With Set max dubbing south movies in hindi everyone knows Junior NTR, Allu Arjun and Ram Charan Teja! Sameer is so right about Indra the Tiger 😂😂
The reason why Bollywood will loose it's charm over time against region cinema is Regional cinema : - They are earthy - Quality story line - Great music sense - Star power in South - Better respect to writer - Give a great height of emotions (SSRajamouli zone)
Nah Simple facts are South Indians generally stick to supporting South films so those films always have a sureshot stable income. South Indians generally don't like Hindi films much and even if Bollywood made better movies the masses would stick to South movies. This will sound stereotypical and all but this is the harsh truth
@@aritraroy2701 Finally I found someone who thinks alike. I don't comment this out of fear of getting abused. Hindi audience are watching good south indian films dubbed in hindi in theatres but no matter how great hindi films release in south india, they won't earn as much as a south indian film. Most of Aamir Khan's films have been great from 2000 to 2016 but none of them did record business in south. But Dabang 3 which was a disaster got great opening in karnataka thanks to Kichcha Sudeep. The Hindi producers themselves don't have the confidence to release their films in south india on a large scale. Bollywood is highly dependent on Maharashtra. I know Sooryavanshi was promoted on a marathi show. Similarly hindi films should be promoted in south india. Somebody has to take the risk and try to win over south indian audience. It's not about content only. It is also about promoting and getting the right number of theatres.
An interesting discussion. I am one of those who has watched Indira the Tiger simply because it was so popular on TV. However I am not sure why Chandigarh Kare Aashiqui’s name is mentioned as an example for a failure and not lavish budget movies like Bunty and Babli or even 83 which has gone nowhere close to its budget
The point they're making is not about failures but multiplex movies (movies meant to cater to urban audience) which might have received good reviews but not big bucks
I don't understand the concept behind Remakes. Like Bong Joon Ho said - all u need to do is get past the 1 inch obstacle - that's all, in case of regional or foreign cinema. Remakes are I think - in Anupama's words - just creative bankruptcy.
It might hold true for urban audiences but the larger Indian movie going population still wouldn't watch things outside their bubble. I'm all for remakes if they're done well.
@@shawna2z1 I agree with you but what movies are remade is the point. If movie like jersie, Vikram vedha are remade to show it to the larger theater going audience is ok. But movies like singham, Baghi franchise are remakes of descent commercial masala films of South and bollywood writers can write it on their own such stories. This shows either the bollywood writers are inept to write such commercial films are it's just lazy quick buck thing by the producers.
@@visahanstunner4 it's hard to believe that there aren't enough good writers. It's just easy money. As long as there is demand for these movies, this will sadly continue.
