When I was a kid, my grandfather used to watch Bollywood films. There's a lot of colour and vibrancy to the Indian films.

James Wan

I grew up with Western films, and I always wondered why Bollywood never made films like that. Why do we always have to break into song?

I don't think Bollywood is only mindless cinema, but a lot of films they churn out are not films that I completely enjoy watching.

Freida Pinto

I started writing movie scripts. They excited me a lot, but I didn't like them when they were finished because they were simple copies of the films I saw in childhood.

Manuel Puig

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.

Rani Mukerji

Some of the scripts I hear are completely useless. Sometimes, they're copies of very bad Hollywood films.

Kollywood allots big budget only for commercial films. Bollywood film industry is straightforward that way. When compared to Bollywood, Kollywood is fake. They keep churning out the same films.

Amala Paul

A lot of people in India are not that into non-Indian films or Western films.

Tokyo is wonderful for distribution of international films, a lot of Iranian films, Taiwanese films. But most of the art films are from Europe and Asia.

In Bollywood, you have to do one film at a time, and there are no mixed schedules. And doing four films at a time is out of the question. Telugu film industry works very differently. But the kind of films I'm getting here are better than what I've been offered in Bollywood.

Rakul Preet Singh

In the last 10 to 12 years when things were not going my way, I was just writing scripts. I have a bank of 10 to 12 scripts for web-series, films and short films.

Aditya Dhar

Some of my scripts need the larger catchment area of Bollywood. But some suit Telugu films.

Ram Gopal Varma

I've chosen films that are different compared to the conventional Bollywood films we all know and love.

Hrithik Roshan

When someone talks about Western films, you probably think of those old black and white cowboy films your granddad likes. But the Western is a wonderful genre because it is usually a story of a lone hero fighting against corruption in a dangerous world.
