Actor and director Tigmanshu Dhulia, renowned for his work on films such as Paan Singh Tomar and Saheb Biwi Aur Gangster, recently shared insights in an interview regarding the film industry's exploitation of individuals' vulnerabilities. He also highlighted the significance of having trustworthy friends within the industry.
Tigmanshu Dhulia on the Film Industry's Insecurity
Tigmanshu described the film industry as an "insecure place," stating, "You require many good friends here because you cannot be open. Everyone experiences moments of weakness. If someone reveals their vulnerabilities to an acquaintance, it may be exploited. But who can you confide in? Many things your spouse may not comprehend."
He elaborated on the necessity of having a true friend, saying, "There should be two friends... but this has become a challenge for me. Which film should I choose? Is the script satisfactory? I am currently facing a difficult period. The film is not succeeding, and I am struggling to find an actor. You need someone to talk to. When we write a film script, we depict a friend of the protagonist—someone who will engage in conversation with him... You need a friend in real life as well. I do not have one at the moment. I cannot share my thoughts with anyone. It’s a dilemma."
