When Aamir Khan revealed why Bollywood is behind Hollywood!

Bollywood can’t produce films like Inception, according to Aamir Khan, who produced Lagaan, Rang De Basanti, and many other films.

One of the most well-known actors in Hindi cinema, Aamir Khan has acquired the moniker “Perfectionist” for his outstanding work in films like Lagaan, Rang De Basanti, and many others. He previously explained why Bollywood was unable to produce the movie Inception.

Bollywood films are more well-liked internationally than ever. The growing popularity of the genre in the west has caught the attention of Hollywood production studios. Bollywood filmmakers, on the other hand, are frequently criticised as being brainless and unable to produce films of the calibre of Inception.

In a conversation with Rajeev Masand, the actor shared, “First of all, I would like to say Hollywood is far ahead of the rest of the world, indeed India, in its ability to tell stories well.”

“And in its freedom to pick topics that are bizarre sometimes, unimaginable topics is what they pick up. Dream within a dream, within a dream. How to convey that and connect with people and make them believe that this is happening? So this fantasy of larger-than-life storytelling is something that Hollywood does it really well. Technically, even in their headspace, they’re far ahead of us. They’re able to things anything that they imagine. We’re not able to imagine only,”

He further shares, “So first we have to be free enough to imagine things which are amazing, and then we can try get it to execute it. So when I watched a film like inception, sitting in the audience and thinking, we have a long way to go to catch up with them. That’s the truth and that’s what I believe. I also believe that we are making films that are for our audiences. We have a large and healthy audience of our own. our primary responsibility, emotionally as well, is to reach out to the audience. So that’s what I enjoy doing.”

The actor continued by stating that films like Lagaan, Rang De Basanti, and many others are difficult works that test the limits of creativity. He continued, “We don’t give enough value to our writing. We don’t give enough value to our writers. That’s a big thing to look at in the film industry. we need to give much more value in every way, emotionally, creatively, and economically.”
