A Quote by Binnu Dhillon
The kind of films being made, that are called experimental, only happens when the industry is confident enough for them to work and I believe that soon we will see a 100 crore blockbuster Punjabi film.

Jokes apart, people are constantly asking me, 'What are you doing for the industry?' When one makes a blockbuster, you plough back money into the industry. If my film makes 100 crore, I'm not taking the entire sum home! It gets distributed between the exhibitors, distributors, producers and actors.
