The declining popularity of Hindi movies in comparison to South Indian ones is a matter of great concern for Bollywood stars and filmmakers. These days it is common for Bollywood celebs to share their opinion on how Bollywood can regain its glory and recently actor Varun Dhawan also shared his take on the matter.

During a promotional chat for his film 'Jugjugg Jeeyo', Varun told PTI, "We just went through a pandemic. So you're getting to see films made years ago. These aren't films which started now. But do our filmmakers, does our industry need to pull up its socks? Yes we definitely need to do that."

The actor further added, "The film business in general needs to pull up its socks too. The amount of flops that Hollywood has given, if you count the number, it is huge. The amount of films which have done badly in the South... (please) count. Our industry got hit. Going to the theatres is a public outing, which also got hit. That habit got hit. We are re-establishing that connection now. Can we make better films? Of course yes."
