People prefer to watch foreign
films rather than locally produced ones. Why do you think this happens? Should
the government support local film makers financially?
--------------
I don’t agree to Government
funding Film Industry. Why people prefer foreign films to local films, I will
elaborate in the following paragraphs together with my point of view towards government
funding too.
All living beings need
entertainment and human being is no exception to it. Rather human beings need
entertainment the most. Film industry optimally fulfills this need of human
being.
Another truth is that people
need the variety in everything. They need Variety in food, clothes and variety
in entertainment. Same pattern of movies for a long time causes the monotony
hence people tend to watch foreign films. By watching foreign films they see
new faces, new culture, new stories and new places. It is really very exciting
and flabbergasting too.
So far as financial condition
of Indian film industry is concerned, I think it is a very wealthy industry.
Most actors, actresses, producers and directors are multi millionaires. Even
others involved in this industry are pretty rich and financially well-off.
Hence film industry does not need any financial support from government. Any
funds diverted towards film industry would be useless.
As a matter of fact financial
support from Government is direly needed by various small cottage industries,
farmers and many community development institutions like Old Homes, Orphanages,
Hospitals, School and Colleges etc.These days condition of most of the
institutions mentioned here are pathetic and those are in a very bad shape due
to lack of funds.
Similarly Zoos also need funds
from Government for providing good food and healthy living conditions of the
inhabitants in the absence of which the wildlife animals, birds, and other rare
species may become extinct. Government must fund Forest Department to work more
efficiently and effectively toward prevention of killing wild life animals like
lions and many more.
In conclusion, Attraction of
foreign films is merely for change in entertainment. Film Industry is rich
hence no funding by Government is not necessary.
Funds may rather be diverted for development
of community and wildlife.
