00:00In the future, if you get your love,

00:05will you die for that love or fight?

00:13Look, this is my age neither to die nor to fight.

00:19This is my age of living.

00:21And I live only.

00:23And that's not the energy for love and love.

00:26That's what happened.

00:28If you come here, it's very good.

00:30I welcome it with open eyes.

00:31If you don't come here,

00:33there are four options for KBC.

00:36Thank you so much.

00:38Firstly, congratulations to the entire team.

00:40The trailer looks very intense.

00:42So congratulations on that.

00:43Karan sir, my question is to you.

00:45It's slightly away from Dhadak.

00:47You know, in today's time,

00:49there is a big conversation happening around film reviews.

00:52Like if you look at the West,

00:54Superman, there was actually a conversation

00:56where the advance booking saw a big spike after the reviews came out.

01:00Last year, you took a decision of completely stopping the press screenings.

01:05And you had your reasons for that.

01:07Now in today's time, when there is so much happening

01:10and when reviews are accessible and when you are making films like

01:13a Kesari, which is heavy on word of mouth,

01:15a Dhadak, which is heavily dependent on word of mouth.

01:18What's your thought on reviews and do you plan to revoke the idea of, you know,

01:23not hosting screenings prior to the release?

01:26So the reason, Himesh, I took that decision at that point of time is,

01:32as you know, and everybody knows this, that we at Dharma Productions

01:35have always shared our films.

01:37We've always had press screenings the evening before,

01:40sometimes even before that.

01:42I believe in very much, even though we are in turbulent times today

01:46and we don't know the authenticity levels of what social media has to offer,

01:50yet I believe in the power of the media.

01:54I am supportive of the media.

01:56I am a member of the media myself.

01:58I have a talk show.

01:59So I believe I am a member of the media myself.

02:01I have full faith in media and I know the power of what they can say

02:05and the power of change that they can bring.

02:07My big issue was when you have a certain kind of an embargo,

02:12you know, when you are seeing the film.

02:14And what I was noticing really was that on social media,

02:18that embargo was being broken,

02:20where people were writing very subtly about the film

02:23or indicating something they thought,

02:25even if it was not a proper review,

02:28it was an indication, it was a suggestion.

02:30In a sense, that is also breaking embargo.

02:33And that's what really upset me on a personal level

02:37and as a filmmaker and as a studio head.

02:39I don't want to be fixed on that all through my career

02:44because I believe that movies should be shown to the media.

02:47And criticism is something I'm not afraid of

02:49because just as we have a right to tell our stories,

02:52a critic has the right to criticize us or dislike what we've done.

02:56It's never about the fear of criticism.

02:59It's just that we want to show you our film,

03:03so can you please protect the film till the film is released?

03:08And then write whatever you need to in the morning of the film.

03:11That is my fear.

03:12That is my fear.

03:13So had I to go back, it will be with the hope

03:17that everybody keeps that embargo alive.

03:21If everyone promises that there will not be those leaks

03:24or there will not be those visual put-out

03:27or subtle lines about our film,

03:29I would love to share.
