Gulte Movie News And Politics
Producer Naga Vamsi spoke openly about the changing face of Indian cinema in a candid conversation with Gulte Pro. His views reflected both concern and clarity about where the industry is heading.
According to Naga Vamsi, the film business is currently going through a tough phase. Revenues have dropped across the board, whether it is theatrical, digital, or non theatrical. He believes the situation may get even tighter, with nearly forty percent reduction in financial viability in the near future. Earlier, satellite rights and digital deals acted as safety cushions for producers, but those options are now shrinking due to strict release window conditions.
Speaking about filmmaking, Vamsi expressed strong admiration for the Tamil film Dhuruvangal Pathinaaru. From a producer’s point of view, he feels it is an excellent example of honest cinema. He praised the director for sticking to the story without worrying about box office pressure or audience formulas. For Vamsi, such films prove that conviction matters more than calculations.
He also admitted that the current production process has its own flaws. Watching films in parts during production does not always help in understanding the final output. By the time the full film comes together, it often becomes too late to correct mistakes. He feels producers need to rethink this approach so that films can be fixed at the right stage itself.
Naga Vamsi also touched upon the illusion created by social media. He said much of what appears on platforms like Twitter and Instagram is pure promotion and not a real reflection of a film’s success. Box office numbers and ground reality are often very different from online noise.
Despite all these challenges, Vamsi remains hopeful. He believes 2025 can still bring positive change, starting with the Sankranti season. His comments act as a reality check for the industry, stressing the need to balance creative ambition with financial discipline in the years ahead.
