ANUPAM KHER ON GADAR 2
He said, “I purposely went to watch Gadar 2 at Gaiety Galaxy, the last time I went there was for Hum’s premiere, so almost after 30 years I went to watch a film in that theater and it was amazing. It captures the imagination of the audience and also people were going to the theater to celebrate. Gadar 2 is a very fine film, a very balanced film, it makes you feel like a proud Indian. I thoroughly enjoyed it.”
Anupam continued, “I spoke to Sunny (Deol) when I was in Vietnam, he had called me for the screening then, but I had told him I would watch it in the theaters.”
ANUPAM ON THE MOVIE-GOING EXPERIENCE
When asked what are his thoughts now that cinema is back after a dull period, he stated, “We have got used to complaining that things are going bad or wrong. But nothing is going wrong. Also, change is very silent. During COVID, people have gone through certain changes and fear has no face, now that fear will slowly go away. Maybe it’s a good way of looking at films and cinema now. ”
“The change was needed in cinema, the make-believe fakeness am not saying that was important. I have worked in many such films, but people now want to see something that is larger than life or something that is closer to life. Going to cinema halls is a celebration with the family. This has helped filmmakers to think that they will have to make sure to make good films,” Anupam signed off.
