Nawazuddin Siddiqui :He is 'hopeless' about BW's future

He observed that Bollywood is still influenced by the trends of the '80s and '90s.

On BW films successful at BO last year:

"We see the same films being made, merely with different actors, costumes, and makeup. I'm genuinely pessimistic about the future. While many remain optimistic, it's evident that audiences prefer a specific type of film, which is fine—they should. However, the survival of diverse cinema is crucial, and unfortunately, that isn't happening."
