Arjun Rampal good looks and charismatic personality has made him the talk of the town, not just in India or Dubai but globally as well.
Recently in an interview Arjun shared parallel cinema is culminating into mainstream cinema. Sharing his point of view he said, there are tones of options for people now to access movies, music and entertainment in general – cinemas, YouTube, Amazon, Netflix etc. How does Rampal see that, as a producer and an entrepreneur? “It’s a great time for all kinds of people and with all kinds of talent,” replies Rampal.
“As you said, with Amazon and Netflix – there are all kinds of platforms where an artist can work and create something. Whatever he creates will not be left in cans in a corner collecting cobwebs, breaking the artist’s heart. He would be able to release it on a certain platform. It’s a great time for people who are into production and for artists and others who want to create content,” he added.
When asked why Pakistani and Indian actors, despite sharing the same language and culture, fail to collaborate as much as they should, he said, “It’s unfortunate what’s happening,” he says, thoughtfully. “I just feel that it’s sad. Artists are messengers of peace and love. Telling stories and entertaining is what they’re meant to do. When you curb that, and stop that kind of interaction, it is very heartbreaking. It should not happen. I just hope politics stay away… Pakistani and Indian artists should be able to work together.”
