Mumbai:
Bollywood
megastar
Amitabh
Bachchan
says
filmmakers
should
be
more
driven
to
make
projects
based
on
real
life
subjects,
which
affect
the
society.
Big
B
shared
the
thought
on
his
blog
post
after
meeting
a
girl
named
Kankana,
who
is
making
a
documentary
on
violence
against
women,
and
has
sought
the
70-year-old
veteran's
video
byte
for
it.
He
is
impressed
with
the
effort.
"It
is
a
brave
effort
on
her
part
to
construct
a
subject
through
film,
her
first,
on
a
subject
that
is
so
prevalent
in
society
today,
and
one
that
needs
to
be
addressed
immediately.
Good
luck
to
her.
Directors
should
come
up
with
more
films
on
real
subjects," Bachchan
posted
on
his
blog.
Big
B
is
also
happy
with
the
changes
in
Indian
cinema,
which
are
clearly
reflected
through
the
awardees
at
the
60th
National
Awards,
announced
earlier
this
week.
Offbeat
films
like
Paan
Singh
Tomar,
Kahaani
and
Vicky
Donor
tasted
success,
and
Amitabh
believes
it
is
a
great
time
to
be
in
the
industry.
"The
world
of
cinema
in
India
is
changing
so
rapidly
it
is
difficult
to
keep
up
with
them.
I
am
delighted
to
be
in
the
company
of
some
of
them
and
to
share
and
perhaps
participate
in
their
dreams.
"I
do
realise
my
standing
and
that
it
does
not
weigh
too
heavily
when
in
comparison
with
the
young.
But
I
shall
endeavour
and
put
in
hard
work
and
perhaps
attempt
to
be
in
the
company
which
deserves
mention," he
added.
