Tisca Chopra on ongoing boycott culture
- IndiaGlitz, [Thursday,September 08 2022]
Just when Bollywood was recovering after a terrible business phase after the pandemic, it faced another huge challenge in the form of boycott trends. In last few months, boycott trends have effectively runied the business of several potential blockbusters and every actor and filmmaker is desperate to find a solution to this issue.
Recently, actress Tisca Chopra also shared her views on this issue and shared that audience posses the ultimate power to accept or reject a film. She told India Today, I don't feel there is anything special about any actor at all. We are people who just go out to do our jobs. Part of our job involves other people. We are the ones who are seen on-screen, however, there are a lot of people who have worked behind it. Our responsibility is not just towards the writers or the producers, but to everyone who are involved in making the film. As performers, that responsibility is on our heads.
The actress added, The bond with the audience is also important. I think they are larger-than-life. They are the ones who make us because without them, we are nothing. If they are boycotting our films, sure. Kuch to soch rahe honge na vo log, kyu nahi sochenge (they must have something on their minds). They are the ones spending their time and money to watch us so I respect what they want. If they don't like it, they don't.
