00:00Ajay Devgn sir was also there at the press meet, so with his support, I got introduced here for the first time.

00:07I am coming here for the second time.

00:09I still have the feeling that I am coming here with his support this Friday as well.

00:14So now I am completely neutral.

00:16The game is balanced.

00:17Now everyone will play equally.

00:19And whoever has a better picture will win.

00:30My question is to the producer, sir.

00:56On 30th March, there is another movie releasing called Bhola.

01:01And there is a tough competition with Desira.

01:03So producer sir, I would like to ask you, what is your take on this?

01:06What would you like to say on this?

01:07Nothing like that.

01:11It all happened.

01:14Both movies are coming on 30th.

01:19I mean, end of the day, both are the movies and I feel audience will accept both movies.

01:26Let me say something as an exhibitor.

01:29The more cinema there is, the more competition there is, there is more energy in the screens.

01:35And I think India is lacking that energy.

01:37We are a country that had four releases in a day and had all four blockbusters.

01:41So I think we are longing for that time to come back.

01:44So it's not competing, it's just growing together.

01:47That's true.

01:48Can I also answer that question?

01:50Sure, sure.

01:51When I came to Mumbai for the first time for the promotion, it was for Makhi.

01:54And Ajay Devgn sir was also there at the press meet.

01:57So with his support, I was introduced here.

02:02So now I am coming here for the second time.

02:04I still have the feeling that I am coming with his support this Friday as well.

02:09Holding his hand and with Bhola.

02:11It feels like a moral support.

02:14So if I am in Mumbai, I will also go to Bhola first and then to Dasara.

02:19So let's do that.

02:44There is still more that should happen with this.

02:46I think now, like you said.

02:50When we were kids, Hindi films were very popular in Hyderabad.

02:56It's still popular.

02:58All the blockbuster Hindi films were watched in the theatres.

03:03So for the first time, our films are being watched in the theatres.

03:08So now it's all neutral.

03:09The game is balanced.

03:11Now everyone will play equally.

03:13And whoever has a better picture will win.

03:43Yeah, I will say I am from India.

03:45And they will say, are you a Bollywood actor?

03:47I will have to say, no, I am from the South.

03:50But I think things have changed now eventually.

03:53Where you go and they realise Telugu films, Tamil films, Kannada, all these.

04:00So the division is understood.

04:02But at the end of the day, we are all one.
