If the Thums Up ad is any indication, Pathan will be another mindless action movie, sans logic and plot. I am afraid it's going to fail.

Yes. All style. No substance.

You can send your own writing or script to Red Chillies Entertainment. I am sure if SRK likes it, he will give it a shot. You can mail them your work at the email addresses at bottom of this page.

Thanks! I didn't know you could do that. Doubt they ever look at anything from total unknowns, but I don't have anything to lose by sending.😀

You can atleast contact them and find out how to go about it. They can maybe arrange a meeting with SRK or his immediate subordinates. It's just that your idea must excite them, especially SRK. Don't just mail your work like that. It might get misused. Good luck.

CBI 5 is filming. Please, SRK! Buy the rights to the whole series. I can totally see you as Sethurama Iyer, investigating officer. No romance, no superhuman stunts, no fluff. Just good stories.

Very well said! 👏

It’s a very long time since all of us saw him in a good author backed role like Chak De India or Dear Zindagi or Swades

Bollywood audience is not mature enough for something like Paleri Manikyam or Yavanika or Kariyila Kattu Pole. They would understand Sethurama Iyer. And it's a pretty good series from an entertainment POV. That's why I suggested it.

I am sorry but that's generalising. Gross generalising. And extremely offensive. What is this "Bollywood audience" things. You make a good film everyone will like it. And it not like regional cinemas especially south cinema do not produce mindless pointless massy movies. As a "Bollywood audience" i would like if my "intelligence" and "maturity" is not judge on someone else parameters of good and bad. As i have said earlier art is subjective my friend.

OK, let me know how many nuanced Bollywood movies have become hits as opposed to the fluff. I could prob point out one Kahaani, but that was a fairly straightforward mystery thriller. Maybe a Badla. Again little nuance. Most hits from Bollywood ARE lacking in logic and nuance. Did an Udaan become a hit? Did a Masaan? Lunchbox got most of its money from overseas. Gangs of Wasseypur?

The numbers speak for themselves.

There are societal characteristics which develop over time. If you're going to claim Afghanistan is not backward in terms of women's rights because it is generalization, you would be both right and wrong. Yes, I would be generalizing, and yes, I would be right in generalizing.

Bollywood audience is of course not Afghanistan. But they marvel at bling and noise and give nuance a wide berth.

Yes, south movies produce masala films. But south movies also produce incredibly nuanced movies, AND the audience makes them hits.

I am sorry you're offended, but I cannot apologize for stating a fact. Not only me, someone like Anil Kapoor has said it. Multiple reviewers have said it.

As for art being subjective... of course it is. But as my response to you at the time was: there is difference between a student's painting and a Ravi Varma masterpiece.

You are hardly stating any facts mate you are gaslighting that s what you are doing. If a person after hard day at work wants to watch a classic massy movie with songs and dance where hero beats the shit out of villian ,ITS THEIR CHOICE . THEIR RIGHT .Nobody get to question them or call them "immature" for spending their free time the way they want instead of anyalizing complex characters the way you want . A common man watch cinema for fun so let them . I might not personally like fan of masala movies but i will atleast respect if others do because its their opinion

Some amount of respect other choices and opinions is that too much to ask?

So Anil kapoor said so and multiple reviews said so it has to be true sur .

You make a good film everyone will like it .

Yeah, it's their choice. Who is saying they cannot? Sorry, friend. Any gaslighting is done by you by turning this around to a discussion on rights of people to watch what they want. And then you're telling me I'm disrespecting their choices. How? By stating my opinion of the vast majority of movies which become hits in Bollywood?

I have the same rights as Bollywood audience. I am not disrespecting them as people. But I will say again and again Bollywood audience is not mature enough for nuanced movies because nuanced movies mostly fail in Bollywood.

The numbers speak for themselves.

Southern audience also chooses to watch and enjoy such masala movies. But there are more nuanced movies which the same audience of teachers and bankers and rickshawallas and doctors and daily laborers watch in Chennai and Kochi and Bangalore, which become hits. We in the south also work hard and spend the money we earn at the movies on weekends. But fact is a southern filmmaker can expect to make a complex movie which has as good a chance at succeeding as a Baahubali.

What you're saying is the same art student making a copy and Ravi Varma should be viewed at the same level. I wouldn't be able tell the difference between copy and original, but I would be the first to admit I am not mature enough to understand high art.

you said and i quote "bollywood audience are not mature enough" that s disrespecting someone else opinion you did not state your opinion on bollywood movies you passed YOUR OPINION ON AUDIENCE BOTH ARE DIFFERENT i hope you aware of that.

I am sure normal cinema goers know that these movies are or not some masterpiece they know in your words "difference between in ravi varma and art students drawing" but THEY MIGHT STILL PREFER NOTE THE WORD "PREFER" to attend their college fest where they will be present with fellow art student s work then go watch ravi varma s exhibition BECAUSE THAT S HOW THEY CHOOSE TO SPEND THEIR FREE TIME. I am sure if you search a bit you would find various bollywood movies of your taste that were hits sooryavanshi is not the only type of film bollywood makes

So are you claiming they understand both types of movies and prefer the masala ones? Somehow, I doubt that. Closing eyes to reality doesn't make it go away.

And note: I didn't claim Bollywood only makes Sooryavanshi type movies. I said by a huge percentage, those are the types of movies which Bollywood audience watches. You're saying it's an informed choice, not an instinctive one. I am going to disagree vehemently.
