5th May 2023, Mumbai : It is well known that Vivek Agnihotri expresses his unvarnished opinions about the film business. He recently discussed a variety of subjects, including the Boycott Bollywood trend, Anurag Kashyap, and much more, in an interview with renowned filmmaker Sudhir Mishra. He has made the astounding assertion that he has been boycotted by the whole industry.
Vivek claimed that he and Kangana Ranaut are the only ones who still question Bollywood nowadays in a section of the chat that we reported yesterday. “Bollywood ko kisne question kiya 4-5 saalo mein,” he quoted. Except for me and Kangana?” We’ll examine Vivek’s assertion that the business community is boycotting him today.
The podcast of Sudhir Mishra and Vivek Agnihotri has been uploaded to the ‘I Am Buddha’ YouTube channel. In a conversation with Mishra, Vivek said, “I have been totally boycotted in this industry. I have found my solace in middle-class people. And when I talked to the housewives, they mentioned having issues with this over-exposure and vulgar display of physical attitude. People are irritated because films do not address the real concerns.”
Vivek Agnihotri further pointed out that there’s no relatability in Bollywood films that are being made today. He said, “I am saying it without malice, but Student of the Year, and films after that, just see the youth in those films and the youth on the roads of the country, you won’t find the youth shown in the movies. When I watched Deewar, I related to it instantly, I looked at Amitabh Bachchan and felt, ‘Oh I also have this problem.’ But today, there is no relatability. Why are you disrespecting the sensibilities of the audience?”
The director of Kashmir Files continued by saying that no one in today’s society is interested in the problems of the average person and that Boycott Bollywood is not a hoax.-
