Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan along with Karan Johar, late actor Rishi Kapoor and Abhishek Bachchan in \u2018The Romantics\u2019 open their hearts about how the Hindi film industry has the power to shape pop culture for India and Indians.
Shah Rukh feels Hindi cinema is part of our DNA and they spread joy and love in the world.
He says, \u201cOur cinema is as much a part of our lives in India, as much as you wake up in the morning and brush your teeth. It\u2019s just an inherent part of us. There\u2019s beauty in the cinema that Indian filmmakers have stuck vis-a-vis music or keeping it still like a musical format.\u201d
Karan Johar says our films try to depict the country\u2019s culture in the most vibrant way possible.
He says: \u201cWe\u2019re an incredible place. We\u2019re a country of so many cultures and so many religions. There are the colours of Rajasthan, the beaches of South India, the magnanimity and large-heartedness of North.\u201d
Rishi Kapoor is proud of how the Hindi film industry has made our nation proud globally.
He says, \u201cWe\u2019re definitely a force to reckon with the world as far as cinema is concerned. We\u2019re the largest film-making country in the world. The way the West perceives Indian cinema is not about sadhus, it\u2019s not about snake charmers, not about elephants, and cows. We have come a long way.\u201d Meanwhile, Abhishek Bachchan feels Hindi films are truly unique.
He says: \u201cFilms that come out of India are completely unique to India, and to our ethos and to our culture and they don\u2019t try to be like anybody else.\u201d
\u2018The Romantics\u2019 has been directed by Oscar and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Smriti Mundhra, who returns to Netflix after the phenomenal success of \u2018Indian Matchmaking\u2019 and the \u2018Never Have I Ever\u2019 franchise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
