The Hindi film industry has become ‘disciplined and structured’, says director Karan Johar, but feels that ‘love and compassion’ that used to bind people together in olden days have disappeared.
Not new to the industry, he is the son of late producer Yash Johar, the man behind films like Dostana, Agneepath and Hum and founder of Dharma Productions, one of the most prolific filmmaking banners in Bollywood. ‘I hear stories of the yesteryears magic. One misses the love and compassion that film people had for each other even when they were making different films. As an industry, we have stopped belonging to each other,’ Johar said.
Johar has been an active member of the Hindi film industry since 1995.
He recently worked with three directors - Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar and Dibakar Banerjee - to create Bombay Talkies.
Johar admits that the industry has come a long way and that part of the transformation has been for the good.
