Farhan Akhtar feels the Indian audience has evolved from fantasy films to stories which are about real issues and are inspired from their surroundings.
Bollywood's
multi-faceted
talent
Farhan
Akhtar,
who
is
looking
forward
to
the
release
of
his
next
movie,
Lucknow
Central,
which
is
about
a
music
band
of
prisoners
-
feels
the
Indian
audience
has
evolved
from
fantasy
films
to
stories
which
are
about
real
issues
and
are
inspired
from
their
surroundings.
Having
made
his
directorial
debut
with
Dil
Chahta
Hai
in
2001,
Farhan
has
spent
a
long
time
in
the
film
industry
dabbling
in
direction,
production,
writing,
acting
and
even
singing.
Talking
about
the
evolution
of
story
telling
in
Indian
cinema
over
the
years,
Farhan
said
in
a
statement,
"I
believe
things
in
the
film
industry...
the
stories
that
are
presented,
what
the
audience
likes
to
see,
follow
a
cyclic
format
which
even
has
an
evolution."
"And
it's
a
good
thing
that
our
audience,
writers,
and
producers
want
to
talk
about
our
people,
they
want
us
to
talk
about
our
issues."

"A
few
years
ago,
it
was
the
age
of
NRIs,
love
stories
were
very
popular.
Everyone
was
eager
to
witness
the
presentation
of
romance
and
the
world
of
fantasies
was
blooming.
Maybe
the
audience
is
now
bored
of
fantasies
to
some
extent
and
they
want
to
learn
about
themselves
now,
share
our
issues
with
each
other."
