Ever since ‘Haseen Dillruba’ was released, it has been facing both positive and negative reviews from the audience and critics alike. The film has gotten mixed reviews, with some accusing it of glorifying toxic relationships and domestic violence.
In a recent interview with Film Companion, Ted Sarandos said, “I feel like our work in India has just begun. We are working with local storytellers, we’ve started our biggest slate of original content last year that’s continuing to grow, some of our films have been immensely popular with our Indian members. Jagame Thandhiram is one that is immensely popular, and Haseen Dillruba was in our top 10 in 22 different countries.”
He explained, “That, to me, is the real possibility of exporting culture, exporting storytelling and helping the planet, this big scary place, feel a little smaller and safer because we know each other. So that’s a cool benefit that we get from all that.”
From the horse’s mouth 🙂
