Young audience, in the age group of 16-33 years, constitutes the main viewership of Bollywood films.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My audiences get younger all the time.
I must say, I was a very filmy kid. I used to watch a lot of TV and get very influenced by Bollywood.
My understanding of films was just as much as any young girl who watches Bollywood films. I had no idea about the whole process of filmmaking, about dialogue writing, scripts, screenplay etc. I had probably gone to two or three film shoots in my childhood.
I always tell younger filmmakers, it's not just about the acting or the art itself. It's about how big of an audience watches your film.
I grew up in Malaysia, and Bollywood is really big there. As a result, I've grown up watching a lot of Hindi movies.
Youngsters are the most discerning audience. They want entertainment, they want issues.
TV actors are doing great in Bollywood. We have our own market, our own fans, who love to see us on the big screen.
Movies can and do have tremendous influence in shaping young lives in the realm of entertainment towards the ideals and objectives of normal adulthood.
If you look at my audiences, even in Europe, they're hardly teenagers.
I mean, movies are all geared to be basically under 25, and they're all tentpoles, explosions, excitement and all that - they take advantage of the big screen, which is great.
