Sonu Sood says film industry should focus on good content
Sonu Sood recently appeared on ‘ANI Podcast With Smita Prakash’ and spoke about the future of the entertainment industry and his personal interests.
On being asked by Smita if the Bombay industry needs to sit up as the audience is now watching films only for the story, regardless of the language, he said that the makers need to fasten their seatbelts and provide good content.
He added that people are smart and informed hence only the films that have a good story and good acting are becoming successful. He said that the industry needs to be true to its craft in order to provide up to the mark.
Talking about the rise of OTT platforms and their new talents, he said it is a brilliant phase for actors, directors and storytellers as the possibilities are endless; but one can only survive if you are the best and not average. He stated that people do not have time to watch mindless films, only brilliance is applauded.
On being asked how the star stays so grounded and does not fully enjoy the glamour that comes with being a celebrity, Sonu Sood shared he is more comfortable living with humility. He enjoys sitting and chatting with the crew members and spot-boys during his shoots as it keeps you connected with yourself.
The actor also talked about his little village in Punjab called Moga where he still roams around on his father’s old bike and cherishes having tea and food on the roadsides. He said that a person should never forget his roots, and even after fulfilling all the desires and dreams, one should be responsible for where they came from.
Smita also talked about the actor’s spiritual beliefs and how that gave him the strength to help thousands of people during the pandemic. Sonu replied that it was definitely the blessings of the almighty that helped him to play the most important role of his career, where he could provide for the people. He hopes that he can continue this good work and says that all you need is good intentions, and not money or power to truly do good for the people.
