"I don't think it's a new idea or concept." - Dulquer Salmaan on pan Indian films
- IndiaGlitz, [Sunday,September 18 2022]
Malayalam movie star Dulquer Salmaan is all set for the release of his upcoming film 'Chup'. Directed by R Balki, this is going to be the third Hindi project for the actor who has previously starred in 'Karwaan' and 'The Zoya Factor'. In a recent promotional interview, Dulquer Salmaan talked about one of the major issues going on in Bollywood i.e, boycott trends.
The actor shared that nothing of similar sorts exists in South India. He told Prabhat Khabar, The boycott culture has increased due to social media. Because one can write anything, irresponsible people can start with any agenda. Cancel culture does not exist in the south. I’m hearing this for the first time in Bollywood.
Salmaan also shared his views on the concept of pan Indian films. He said, When something is overused, we get tired of hearing it. Now I don’t see an article or an interview without this pan-India word. I don’t think it’s a new idea or concept. The movies of stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Rajinikanth and Shah Rukh Khan went beyond borders long ago. Now I feel there is no need to emphasize that a movie is a pan-India film.”
