Reflecting on the same, Dibyendu stated that Bollywood as a mainstream cinema couldn't grow with time. He shared, "Humne hamesha new wave, parallel cinema hair art house dunda hai, lakin pehle zamane mein jo mainstream cinema hua karti thi jisme achi pictures banti thi. Fir beech mein ek time aya jab mainstream cinema alag hogai, jaha alag duniya ki kahani banate rahe, wohi ek chiz karte rahe. Wadiyo mein ja kar geet gaa rahe, deewaren girate rahe. Toh isse entertainment ka duniya ek alag ho gaya tha toh, woh ek bahut bada nuksan hua industry ka."

"Ek time ke bad koi directors and producers nahi aye jo bole ho ki yeh kya ho raha hai? Vesi filmey kyu nahi ban pa rahi hai, Do Bhiga Zameen, Madhumati jaisi. Ek time ke bad writers ka importance hi khatam ho gaya. Toh writers agar ache nahi ho toh industry kaise grow hogi? Beeche mein humne dekha ki ache writers nahi the, aur jo the unse zabardasti kuch aur likhwaya ja raha tha."

"Toh problem woh, talent toh industry mein bhar bhar ke hain. Depend karwane wale pe hota hai ki aap kisi se kya kar lete ho. Director ko batana hai, actor ko kya karna hai, kese karna hai. Filmmaking is complex; we are working with so many various things in a film that need specific skilled people."
