Amitabh Bachchan: Everywhere Hollywood has gone, it has destroyed the

Amitabh Bachchan is busy with the
promotions of his upcoming film 102 Not
Out. It also stars Rishi Kapoor in the lead
role.
In an interview with Indian Express, Big B
got candid about Indian cinema, Hollywood
film industry, and movies and shows on the
digital platform.
Amitabh said, "Speed of communication and
the alternatives that people have for
entertainment has become so good. Earlier,
it was only cinema. Today you have TV,
computer, mobile and with communication
coming in so rapid, you are exposed to stuff
that's coming from every corner of the
world. So, they are used to seeing
something and in some cases
in perhaps greater quality than ours and
they want the same from us. So, we have to
keep re-inventing."
Amitabh Bachchan said that Hollywood has
destroyed the local industry wherever it has
gone. "This I was told in 1993 when I was
on a casual visit to New York and I met
some studios who were wanting to meet
me and they told me, You better get your
house in order because India is the new
frontier and Americans are coming.' And
everywhere Hollywood has gone, it has
destroyed the local industry whether it's
England, Italy or Germany, they just come
and take over. They have the money and the
expertise. They have the quality and
quantity. We are fighting against them," said
Big B.
He added, "I still believe that emotionally we
are stronger but we will not able to match
them in technology. But I have to say that
the younger generation of our film industry
are absolutely aware of what's happening in
the rest of the world. And they are spending
a lot of money and energy to make their
films equally big."
Amitabh Bachchan also said that people
should not patronise Hollywood films when
they release.
The actor said, "So, whenever their films
come out, please don't patronize them
because we are fighting against an ogre of
Hollywood from overtaking us and
destroying our industry. I spent some time
with these young filmmakers and they think
so big and massive. They don't have any
doubts about how to do things. They tell me,
We will do this and that,' and I ask them,
But how will you manage?'. They assure me
they know how to do it."

Honestly, I dont like the way he thinks. If Hollywood movies are doing good then we need to learn from them and improve our standards, not patronize the audience to not watch better movies just cause it will affect his industry.

why should I pay for krish 3 when I have option to watch avengers!

Start making better movies then..

this is same excuse flop directors in lollywood pakistan makes against bollywood...local industry is being destroyed by indian content lol

Better start making good content films.

Bollywood is lazy lol...you wanna compete with Hollywood then:

a) stop copying them
b) improve the content
c) get rid of nepotism

Not true at all. I don't know what Amitabh Bachchan is smoking. Healthy competition makes industries work harder and give consumers better choices.

Grapes are sour 😆

Did he, in effect, just say "don't watch HW movies because they are better than ours "? Arrogant entitled jerk! Native language films always have an advantage if the films are even kind of equivalent. Try working to make better movies that can compete instead of asking the audience for charity!
