Hollywood Will Eat Bollywood If We Don't Produce Better Content: Arjun Kapoor!
Arjun Kapoor says that Hollywood might end up eating Bollywood in the near future if Indian cinema does not produce new content. He said the gap between Hollywood & Bollywood is inching closer.
There
was
a
time
when
Bollywood
was
the
true
ruler
of
cinema
in
India
and
Hollywood
was
just
a
side
kick.
It
looks
like
the
tables
have
slowly
turned
over
the
years
and
Hollywood
has
a
huge
fan
base
in
the
country
already,
as
it
delivers
fresh
and
new
content
in
every
other
movie.
The
same
is
not
the
case
in
Bollywood
as
people
are
getting
fed
up
of
watching
the
same
old
script
being
sold
in
a
new
bottle.
If
the
same
continues
for
some
years,
Hollywood
might
end
up
eating
Bollywood
says
Arjun
Kapoor.
Speaking
to
Bollywoodlife,
Arjun
Kapoor
revealed,
"The
English
film-viewing
market
has
eaten
into
our
business
because
our
content
is
not
good
enough.
If
we
provide
great
content
on
the
same
day,
even
our
films
would
do
well.
There
is
food
for
thought
that
we
have
to
pull
up
our
socks."
He
also
revealed
that
the
audiences
are
giving
out
signals
to
Bollywood
film-makers
that
if
they
keep
doing
the
same
old
stuff
over
and
over
again,
they
will
make
sure
never
to
come
to
the
theatres
to
watch
movies
and
waste
their
time
and
money.
He
said,
"The
audience
is
giving
us
a
signal...
'ki
yaar,
tum
log
kuch
banaoge
jo
hum
logo
ne
nahi
dekha,
toh
hum
aake
dekhenge
theatre
mein'
(Do
something
new
which
we
have
never
seen
before,
so
that
we
can
hit
the
theatres
to
watch
it).
Arjun
Kapoor
also
stressed
that
Bollywood
should
gear
up
with
better
VFX
so
that
it
can
match
up
with
the
competition
worldwide.
