Jaya Bachchan Went On A Rant About The Indian Film Industry And Didn’t Hold Anything Back

Jaya Bachchan is a veteran actress in Bollywood. She began her career at the tender age of 15 with a Bengali film and is best known for her performances in ‘Guddi’, ‘Mili’ and ‘Silsila’.

In a recent interview, Jaya Bachchan had a lot to say about Indian films today, comparing them to those from the 1950s and 60s. 

“Filmmakers at that time, created art. Today, it’s a business and all about numbers. Everything is thrown at our face. People have forgotten subtlety. Open display of affection is considered smart… sharam naam ki toh cheez hee nahi hai!”

Jaya added that the film industry today is just focused on big collections at the box office.

The veteran actress expressed utmost displeasure regarding the kind of cinema she sees today.

“I get stressed out when I see this kind of cinema. I need to run away to some quiet place.”

Jaya Bachchan certainly does not seem too fond of what Bollywood has become from what it previously was.
