Farah Khan: Big fat Bollywood entertainers will get people back into theatres
Hindustan TimesOnly the return of big Bollywood entertainers will make the revival of big screen possible and a successful affair after the lull induced by the pandemic, feels filmmaker Farah Khan. “When people come out of the pandemic and go to the theatre, they’ll want to go to watch a big ticket entertaining film because everything else I’m getting to watch while I sit in my bedroom,” Khan continues, “So, if I’m going to take time out of my life, wear a mask and get into a theatre with other people, it better be paisa vasool entertainment.” According to the choreographer-filmmaker, the “big fat entertainers” will definitely come back for the theatre goers. “They worked because that’s something you want to go and watch on the big screen. At least initially, when there will be a little trepidation and hesitation, you’ll want to go to watch a big fat Bollywood entertainment,” Khan tells us.
