After recent big budget hits, Nawazuddin Siddiqui asks, “cinema kahan hai?”

In a new interview, Nawazuddin said that these are visual experiences and asked where is the true cinema. He also said that such big-budget films take over theatres which left him wondering if small budget films will get theatre releases. The actor thanked OTT platforms saying that it’s here where he can watch good films.

The Kashmir Files, released in March, became the first Hindi film to cross the ₹250 crore mark at the box office. It is a small budget film and features Anupam Kher, Pallavi Joshi, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumaar, Puneet Issar, Mrinal Kulkarni. Recently, big-budget films such as SS Rajamouli’s RRR and Prashanth Neel’s KGF Chapter 2 were released in theatres.

Nawazuddin Siddiqui refused when asked if the concept of the main lead is changing in commercial cinema. He also replied when asked about playing lead character in Thackeray. I don’t think it’s changing. The films that are being hits now, it looks like skills be damned, entertain people on superficial levels.

He also said that it’s a struggle for ‘good, modest, small budget films’ to get released in theatres as only big-budget films get released. Speaking about such films he added, “Such movies dazzle and create awe, that planes are put in water and fishes are made to fly”. These are visual experiences that even I like to watch but where is cinema? I think children like these shocking films. A young mind is a progressive mind. We should have been more progressive after two years, but unfortunately, it didn’t happen.

Family Star review

The Hindustan Times’ review of the movie Family Star, starring Vijay Deverakonda and directed by Parasuram Petla, suggests that the film struggles to make a mark or entertain, with issues reminiscent of Geetha Govindam (2018). The film tests patience and fails to maintain interest as it progresses.

The review criticizes the plot of Family Star, stating that it is thin and defies logic, making it difficult to enjoy. It also suggests that the film’s portrayal of middle-class life is caricaturish, as if it was written by someone unfamiliar with the realities of such a life.
