If money was the criteria to gauge the success of an artist then I beg to defer with Sathyu.
SRK, Hrithik, Aamir Khan are crowd pullers and money spinners in real world. So in a way Sathyu is highlighting the fact that Indian audiences are bunch of idiooots.
Movies like Garam Hawa are meant for film festivals and museums. Life in India is stressful and depressing enough. Indian audiences still crave to escape from reality.
Its simple. Just as the difference between classical music and rock music, the audiences for both are poles apart.
