As Bollywood lately witnessed a lot of film failures, filmmaker Vikram Bhatt has some suggestions for the industry to help it course correct its path. Speaking with ANI, Bhatt, who is known for creating films such as 'Ghulam' and 'Raaz', emphasised the need to cater to the masses.

"Everyone forgot the masses and went to niche films. And during COVID, the audience's habit of watching films in theatres disappeared. We stopped making massy films. If you see the South industry, it's flourishing because it always prioritises the mass audience. They still want to see superheroes, want to see Pushpa, want to see Kantara. They still consider the villain a villain, still whistle and clap. Hum toh waisi films banana bhul gaye jise dekhkar audience seeti aur taaliya bajaye," Bhatt expressed.
