Vivek Agnihotri calls for a new Bollywood: Actor can’t even speak Hindi
Vivek Agnihotri criticized Bollywood, claimed that new actors lack talent and box office figures are inflated. He urges young filmmakers to create a new industry or nominate Bollywood as ‘Instawood’.
Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has commented on the current status of the following Hindi film industry Anurag Kashyap’s commentThe director highlighted the fact that the new-age actors do not know how to speak Hindi and claim that “there are no promising new stars” in the age group of 21-35. He criticized the filmmakers to increase box office numbers to create a false perception of success.
Agnihotri, who directed the Kashmir files, shared a note called ‘Bollywood is Falling’, in which the fall of the Hindi film industry is called “The Best Thing to Happe”. He wrote, “Bollywood is in dilapidated. And it is good for the industry. To erect a new building, you must demolish the old. It’s that time.”
The filmmaker argued that, instead of “passion for cinema”, “corporate greed and agenda-powered materials” are producing film today.
“Today, Bollywood has hardly any independent producer. There is no new producer. No fresh idea. No innovative distribution or marketing strategies. A few years ago, there were only two or three, and they were also monopol at the reasons other than filmmaking. The passion for cinema is replaced by corporate greed and agenda-operated materials,” he wrote.
He said, “Why are there no moviesthat’s, why there is a crazy crowd to release old films. Most directors can create a difference in these important times and have left OTT.”
Commenting on the new age actors, Agnihotri wrote, “To survive the film business, star-actor is necessary. But there are no new stars. If you want to cast someone from the age group of 2135, you will find almost non-heroines and heroines. The instructor, and WhatsApp.”
And if someone chooses to choose “unknown or external” actors from a “humble background”, Agnihotri said, “You do not give any chance to get funding, distribution, or marketing. ,
But Fully box office numberThe filmmaker said, “The box office, once the final test of a film, has now become an office. You can publish any figure, give free tickets, arrange corporate booking, whatever you want, manipulation of bookings, manipulations to the booking, it is a free-off-all.
He added, “No surprise, as usual, Bollywood chose the easy way: manipulation and corruption. Ironically? The powerful people that make this corrupt cyclonic, they are now playing the role of victims. The demons they have made are ready to swallow them.
Eliminating his note, Agnihotri asked young, interested filmmakers to “produce a new Hindi film industry,” or believes Bollywood should be named “Instawood”.
“The team we worked with on Delhi’s files were filled with small towns, Vernacular boys and girls. Many of them will succeed and make a luxurious film and eats Monster this old, broken, and extremely corrupt system. If you are ready to sacrifice a middle class, younger-time young storyteller for your craft. Instawod,” AGNIHOOD, “wrote.”
Filmmaker is keen on the release of his film The Delhi Files: The Bengal Chapter, which is scheduled to hit theaters on August 15.
