In an exclusive chat with Zoom, he said that he was not fully aware of the situation in the Indian film industry, but had recently read or seen a discussion about Hollywood, where a certain type of film had become the go-to commercial, big-budget structure. He noted that by repeatedly making the same kind of films, an appetite or taste had been created in an entire generation of young audiences who now had the money to go to theatres. He added that this trend had led to the decline of mid-budget and low-budget films, which may not have been massive blockbusters but were still financially stable and contributed to a more diverse cinematic landscape.
