“Dobaaraa” will open on the big screen at a time when only lavishly mounted spectacle films such as “Pushpa: The Rise”, “RRR” and “KGF: Chapter 2” have emerged blockbusters across India. The mystery drama is set to be released on August 19. Headlined by Taapsee Pannu, “Dobaaraa” is the Hindi remake of the 2018 Spanish movie “Mirage”. The moment we go rooted, our films will work,” he added. Other filmmakers are attempting to make those films which they don’t usually, they’re trying to impress, changing genres. “’Gangubai Kathiawadi’, ‘Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2’ worked because the two filmmakers made the kind of films they usually make. He said both “Gangubai Kathiawadi” and “Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2” - the two Bollywood blockbusters of the year helmed by Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Anees Bazmee, respectively - worked because the makers followed their conviction.
When our mainstream filmmakers make their kind of films, they work,” Kashyap, known for acclaimed films such as “Gangs of Wasseypur”, “DevD”, and “Mukkabaaz”, said. Wherever the films are rooted, they work. “Here, people who can’t speak Hindi, who speak English, are making Hindi films. The filmmaker, who has produced Malayalam films such as “Paka” and “Moothon”, and Marathi movie “Vakratunda Mahakaaya”, said Hindi film industry now has directors who can’t even speak the language, which reflects in the movies they make. But our films are not rooted,” Kashyap told reporters here. When you see Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam films, they’re rooted in their culture, whether that’s mainstream or non-mainstream culture.
“Because our Hindi films are not rooted, this is the simple answer. Kashyap said if films from the south are resonating across the country, it’s because the filmmakers have stayed true to the milieu.Īt the trailer launch of his upcoming directorial venture “Dobaaraa”, the director was asked why are Hindi films not doing well at the box office. One of the reasons the Hindi film industry is struggling to deliver hits is because the movies are no longer “rooted” in culture, said filmmaker Anurag Kashyap on Wednesday.
