Bollywood’s rising entourage costs have recently stirred conversations among industry insiders. Many celebs have highlighted how actors now travel with a team of at least nine people. In a recent interview with News18 Showsha, filmmaker Rohit Shetty talked about this trend and offered his perspective.
Rohit Shetty SUPPORTS Actors In Entourage Cost Debate
We all know that Shetty has directed blockbuster films with stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Ranveer Singh, Deepika Padukone, and Kareena Kapoor. He explained that the cost increase is not just about actors.
He stated, “When we talk about the cost, it is not just the actors. Everything from travelling to ticketing and hotels, the prices for everything have gone up. It is not just actors. The whole cost has gone up for a lot of things.”
According to Rohit Shetty, the rising expenses extend beyond the cast to all aspects of film production.
Filmmaker On Use Of CGI In Movies
In the same interview, Shetty also discussed the use of CGI in films. He noted that visual effects have become a staple across the industry. “I think now everyone is using VFX. It is not just us but all over the world. Most importantly, it is a bit easier and safer. When you are doing hand-to-hand combat, we are trying to be as real as possible,” he said.
Despite the growing reliance on CGI, Shetty remains committed to authentic action sequences. “For me, hand-to-hand combat will always be real. Even when you see my next venture, Singham Again, hand-to-hand combat is real and yes, there is a lot of CG as well,” he added.
