A Quote by Sunny Deol
My production company wasn't doing well, so we were not producing films. Over a period of time, we have realized that we are going to produce our own films and make cinema that we like. We've got so much in-house talent, and my kids are going to be coming, so we all decided that we are going to be in films and cinema.

It's part of this global environment now and I'm grateful that the Academy is having this window on world cinema.
