Parambrata Chattopadhyay told why soldiers, Pathans will not work in Bengali
Shahrukh Khan starrer Jawan and Pathan are two of the blockbuster films of 2023. Both films broke many records at the box office. But in a recent interview, Parambrata Chattopadhyay said that if films like Jawan and Pathan are made in Bengali, no one will watch them. He also appealed to the Bengali film audience.
Recently, while talking to Calcutta Times, Parambrata Chattopadhyay said, “There is tremendous double standards among the Bengali audience. SRK (Shahrukh Khan) films do very well here, but if you make Jawan or Pathan in Bengali, no one will go to watch it.” He said this is the era of domestic family dramas, fantasy thrillers and detective stories.
Commenting on the rise of OTT where complex stories are performing better than the big screen, Parambrata said the national audience prefers spectacle on the big screen to earn its money and according to him, this spectacle is associated with “masculinity”. Is. And masculinism as defined by RRR or Jawan in our country is unfortunately about men.”
