Bollywood should tell true stories: Anil Kapoor
The actor, who has ventured out in international cinema with roles in \'Slumdog Millionaire\' and \'Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol\' besides starring in TV dramas like \'24\', says it is important to create content that appeals to people irrespective of region.
For Hindi cinema to find global acceptance, it is important that Bollywood filmmakers choose real issues over their song-and-dance routine, feels Anil Kapoor.
The actor, who has ventured out in international cinema with roles in 'Slumdog Millionaire' and 'Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol' besides starring in TV dramas like '24', says it is important to create content that appeals to people irrespective of region.
It is important to tell stories as they are, as real as possible. I think the more real it is the better it is. I know music and dance is our culture but I think filmmakers should use it only if it is necessary for the story then it is fine. Otherwise we should not.
We need to focus on creating content that can be lapped up anywhere in the world. We have to create a taste for Indian films and that responsibility is on filmmakers and writers," Anil said.
The 59-year-old actor was part of a discussion with Freida Pinto at the FICCI-IIFA Global Business Forum during which they talked about varied subjects like the relevance of Indian cinema and their Hollywood experience.
