Sunny Deol, who is gearing up for his upcoming release Jaat, recently appreciated South filmmakers and pointed out how they make cinema with love. The actress stated that the producers in the Hindi film industry should learn how to make movies with love from their southern counterparts. He further shared how much he loved working with all the South filmmakers. Sunny Deol also indicated that he might go and settle in the South.
At the trailer launch of Jaat, Sunny Deol said “I want producers of Bombay to learn (from them). You all call it Bollywood, but first refer to it as Hindi cinema, and learn how to make cinema with love (from south filmmakers)…I thoroughly enjoyed working with all of them. I told them (makers), ‘Let’s do another film’. Maybe I shall go and settle there (in the South).”
“Earlier, the producer used to like a story when the director narrated it. Then they would commit themselves to making it. Later, the corporates came in and then it became very commercial. In all of this, people lost interest (in filmmaking). Everyone became a victim. The people who had hunger (for filmmaking) were left behind,” the actor added.
Earlier in an interview with The Hindu, Anurag Kashyap also stated that he has moved out of Mumbai. The source told the portal that the filmmaker has relocated to Bengaluru and is keen on working in the South film industry.
