Recently, Rohit Shetty attended an event. During this, the director was questioned on Bollywood and South Cinema, to which Rohit Shetty replied that Bollywood can never end. He said, “When you will see the history.. In the 50s and 60s a movie named ‘Pyaar Kiye Jaa’, which was a remake was released. Shashi Kapoor was seen in this film. When the careers of Amitabh Bachchan and Vinod Khanna were at the top in the 80s, a boy had come.

Rohit Shetty further said, ‘Kamal Haasan was a part of the film ‘Ek Duje’, which was a hit. We also had two superstars of the 80s, Jaya Prada and Sridevi, from the South. From ‘Himmatwala’ to ‘Justice Chaudhary’ and ‘Mawali’ in Jitendra ji’s era, all these films were remakes of South. The trend changed after Mani Ratnam directed ‘Roja’. Our famous music director AR Rahman is also from South.
Rohit Shetty said about Bollywood that when VCRs came in the 80s, then everyone was saying that Bollywood and theater would end. When OTT came, people said that now Bollywood will end. I believe that ‘Bollywood ends’ is a drug addiction, but in reality Bollywood will never end.
