MUMBAI (Web Desk) - In a recent virtual chat session with fans, Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor shared his thoughts on the current state of the Hindi film industry. When asked about what he thinks is lacking in the industry, the actor stated that the western culture has greatly influenced it, resulting in confusion.
"I think what’s lacking in the Hindi film industry is really knowing your audience. I think somewhere in the last 10, or 15, or 20 years, the Hindi film industry has been quite confused and influenced by Western culture, by Western films, by remakes," the 40-year-old actor remarked.
Kapoor also emphasised the importance of giving new faces and minds opportunities in showbiz. He believed that not providing them with a chance is another reason why the industry is lacking.
"There are very few actors and actresses and they are not giving new people an opportunity, like new directors, new minds. I think it’s very important actually to give them (an opportunity) because that’s when the change happens. That’s when new minds come and new stories are being told so I hope that happens," he added.
Ranbir Kapoor was last seen in Luv Ranjan’s Tu Jhoothi Main Makkar alongside Shraddha Kapoor, which grossed over INR 150 crore nationally. He is now gearing up for the release of his next film Animal, which features Rashmika Mandanna and Bobby Deol.
