Manage episode 403196702 series 3190287
In India, movies were the quintessential escape from reality. They were the transition into a world of disbelief yet they would entertain like no other medium. Now, all that remains of the mainstream version of this young art form in this country is a version that asks its viewers to "leave their brains at home". It feels like a gross insult to the audience. To underestimate one's audience is the beginning of any revolution and that revolution must start with the people.
In this episode, we discuss the fall from grace of a world renowned industry and how its interests are represented by less-than-capable artists and its commerce is handled by those who do not have any interest in the artistic value of the creation. Is there a need for a change? If so, who will bring it?
