Indian film director, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri slams Filmfare awards show. He politely refused to be part of unethical and anti-cinema awards. The director explained why he refused to be a part of the project. Vivek sent a lengthy letter slamming the award event.
Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri slams Filmfare awards:
“I learnt from the media that The Kashmir Files is nominated in 7 categories for the 68th Filmfare Awards. But I politely refuse to be part of these unethical and anti-cinema awards.”
“According to Filmfare, other than the stars, nobody has a face. Nobody matters. That’s why, in the sycophant and unethical world of Filmfare, Master Directors like Sanjay Bhansali or Sooraj Barjatya have no faces. Sanjay Bhansali looks like Alia Bhatt, Sooraj like Mr. Bachchan and Annes Bazmi like Karthik Aryan. It’s not that a filmmaker’s dignity comes from Filmfare Awards but this humiliating system must end.”
“Therefore, as my protest and dissent against a corrupt, unethical and sycophant establishment of Bollywood, I have decided to not accept such awards”, Vivek Agnihotri tweeted.
