Asserting that Indian film industry was not just Bollywood, the Prime
Minister said, "cinema in non-Hindi languages in our country has is a
rich and proud tradition. Alongwith Hindi cinema, it has played a great
role in promoting national integration and in celebrating different
aspects of our diverse social and cultural life." "I think that there
should be greater awareness of non-Hindi Indian cinema, both within and
without our country."
"When life is so rich and complex, when there are so many colours and
shades of emotion and experince in life, why do our films generally try
to stick to a stereotype?," he asked.
