Producer Dinesh Vijan Reacts On Producer Naga Vamsi's Derogatory Comments On Bollywood Industry
Mumbai, January 5 - Producer Dinesh Vijan of Maddock Films has reacted to the recent comments made by Telugu producer Naga Vamsi on the Bollywood film industry. During a roundtable interaction of filmmakers, Vamsi said that while the South industry is going Pan India, Bollywood filmmakers are making films only for Juhu and Bandra in a seemingly arrogant tone. ## During Sky Force's trailer launch event, producer Dinesh Vijan was asked to react to Vamsi's derogatory remarks. The filmmaker, who has been in top form with back-to-back big successes, made a very dignified response without showing Vamsi and South industry in a bad light. ## Speaking about the same, Vijan said that since the pandemic, there are 5 Hindi films (Pathaan, Jawan, Gadar 2, Animal, and Stree 2) which has crossed 500 crore net collection which didn't exist earlier. He said that just because Bollywood filmmakers don't speak about or brag about those successes, the fact is that we have 5 huge films (since Covid-19). ## Without gunning down the entire South industry, Vijan said that there might be 1 or 2 people who speak like that but whenever he has gone to South, they (South filmmakers) have been very encouraging. He called for unity and said that we should start calling ourselves as Indian film industry. ## Meanwhile, Sky Force stars Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya (in his acting debut) alongside Sara Ali Khan, Nimrat Kaur and Sharad Kelkar in key roles. Directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Anil Kapur, the film is scheduled to be released on January 24. ## #DineshVijan and #AkshayKumar on Vamsi's comment of "Bollywood sirf Bandra-Juhu ke liye movie banata hai." pic.twitter.com/YjnLDouDit— $@M (@SAMTHEBESTEST_) January 5, 2025 ## Stay tuned...
