Chopra on the right path

I agree with Chopra 100 %. In India any movie with 2 actors and 20 dancers dancing around the trees is a big hit. Don't forget Chopra made one of the most powerful movies of all time - PARINDA.
In 1942 the script was weak. Mission Kashmir was technically brilliant, no one in India has ever made such a brilliant technical film (I am not considering Kante since it was made with hollywood skill sets). I think Chopra is right in making a hollywood film. Hope his movie wins some Oscar

Mr Chopra , a director who make films like 1942 and Mission Kashmir, has no right to talk about the maturity of the Indian Audience.Does he consider himself a more creative a director than Satyajit Ray or Shayam Benagal, to name a few?If then can make movies which suits their intellect and at the same time appeal to the masses, then why cant his film do the same?
That will be something like "Grapes are sour...."

Hello,
It's not bad(!!!) to read such an article where the understanding level of Indian people has been very badly insulted!!! I don't think that in reality the understanding level of average Indians is not enough mature to understand any sort of plot, in fact very big shots (!!!) like 'Chopra ji' thinks himself to be much above the maturity level of Indians, which in reality I hope opposite the case is!!! Thanks for reading this comment.
