A Story Starved Film Industry

posted by admin

A new trend is emerging in the film industry these days with everybody trying a hand at writing out scripts for the silver screen. Everyone wants to make their own stories and this has resulted in low and contemptible cinema. It would be quite unfair to blame them especially because the focus of producers and directors is on gathering publicity and doing marketing so that they are able to make a neat profit. Caring for film making as a passion and treating it as art for art’s sake has been long forgotten.

As it is, Bollywood films are known to rip of hits from Hollywood from a long time and it will quite a while when this changes. Many known directors who claim to deliver hits consistently are actually taking their “inspirations” from western movies. Not only is the story copies, but even the background score, music tracks and even action sequences.

As a result of this, authors are turning film writers and trying to boost its image. Chetan Bhagat, a successful banker who has written two bestsellers will be writing. Another investment banker from the States has returned to this pet subject of his. Like them, many others are putting efforts to deliver hit movies.
