 Home to one of the largest film industries in the world, India comprises of Hindi films, more popularly termed Bollywood, with a larger chunk belonging to cinema of other regions. It is the regional cinema that forms a larger part of Indian film industry, not only in numbers, but also style and substance. Cinema is a religion in this country, so a lot of people do watch films, but when I go to smaller places, like when the festival happens in Kerala or Calcutta, the audiences come in like thousands. And the regional cinema in our country is making a definite statement. And how it impacts an individual, how much it harms his psyche, let alone his domestic life, that was being beautifully visualized and presented to the audience. The kind of Tamil cinema I watch, I prefer it to be something should have a personal connection between the film, it should be more realistic. The more regional it is, the more experiential it is, the more deep-rooted it is, the better it is for their films. A group of film fans have been turned into blood donors, eye donors. Yes, it is also reaching to people through cinema. We talk about serious cinema, so for you to talk about cinema, which is sensible. Basically Marathi is my language and any good effort, maybe it is a very small effort, done in Marathi film, if I don't see it, then who is going to see it? It's about what we see, what we don't see. In our society, we can see certain things, but sometimes we don't want to see it. Regional cinema will have to evolve by creating its own distinctive motive, different from that of Bollywood. In cinema, you can create some kind of magic, but in reality, it's not about what you see, it's about what you don't see. It's about what you see, what you don't see. Different from that of Bollywood. In cinema, you can create some kind of magic. People don't follow all your understanding, but certain magic.
