Sanjay Dutt Recognizes the Evolution of Mainstream Cinema: Embracing Fresh Narratives and Technological Marvels
Sanjay Dutt, a veteran actor with over four decades of experience in commercial potboilers, recently expressed his observation of a notable shift in the genre. As he delves into his latest project, director Lokesh Kanagaraj's multi-lingual film "Leo," Dutt reveals his excitement for the emergence of new-age filmmakers who are revitalizing mainstream cinema.
"I am genuinely thrilled by the stories being crafted today," shares Dutt. "The younger generation's approach to storytelling guarantees that masala films will continue to grow and improve. Lokesh Kanagaraj, a dynamic filmmaker who understands the pulse of the audience, holds a special place in my heart like a son."
However, this transformation in the industry isn't solely driven by filmmakers' sensibilities; technological advancements play a significant role in turning larger-than-life visions into reality. Dutt points to the impact of visual effects (VFX) on his Kannada blockbuster, "KGF: Chapter 2" (2022), emphasizing how these enhancements elevate the cinematic experience. Similarly, "Leo," featuring Dutt alongside Tamil star Thalapathy Vijay, promises a grand spectacle with breathtaking action sequences and stunning special effects.
Dutt acknowledges the remarkable progress in technology, stating, "The advancements in technology have provided filmmakers with the tools to create awe-inspiring visual effects, larger-than-life sets, and captivating action sequences. Combined with fresh narratives, these technical marvels ensure that masala films become even more spectacular."
