New Delhi:
OTT platforms are not able to change Bollywood “Forever”, actor-cum-director Rakesh Roshan has said, shows the patience with which the Hindi film industry has survived all challenges so far, including some black like Kovid-19 Hans include incidents.
Speaking in NDTV’s “India Through the Eyes of Its ICons” series, Mr. Roshan said: “You can never say forever. When the video came, many people thought the same, but it does not change Bollywood . ”
Drawing from its decades experience in the industry, Mr. Roshan’s comment was in response to a question whether technology and OTT platforms have the ability to change Bollywood forever.
Mr. Roshan agreed with the prestigious writer Salim Khan that the lack of powerful story tell is proving to be the heels of the Bollywood industry.
He also said that “packaging a story” is equally necessary and this “nutritious packaging” is something that is not found in films made these days.
The South Indian industry still makes “nutritious” films and the technology is giving it a kind of lead, which is necessary to bow to the audience today “, the prestigious filmmaker said.
On making a film and the developed art of audience’s choice, Mr. Roshan said: “Making a film is in one field. In a decade from now on, it can develop completely in a new direction where our films will be seen very old. Or it can return to a big life cinema that we used to make, but today is being replaced by a wave of real-life films. “
