Interview: Fahadh Faasil (‘Aavesham’) | Baradwaj Rangan
Hi BR,
Amazing interview. Long time lurker here…
I’ve felt like BR has been trying to ask the same question to a lot of different people over the last year about the “entertainment factor” in movies nowadays, and all of the people who have answered are just, in my opinion, kind and generous (or scared) enough to not utter a single word of criticism at how audiences’ tastes have changed in the face of short-form content.
Fahadh says that young-gen actors/crew are not worried about saving face in front of the camera, and so let loose. The sanctity of cinema has been taken away, and when something is not considered sacred anymore, it leads to experimentation. This sort of experimentation/indulgence is arguably good, and might lead to movies like Aavesham or Premalu, but it is only rarely that they lead to movies like Bramayugam or Lover. More often than not, in today’s world, a filmmaker would decide to do a “Love Today” instead of a “Lover. And I am not talking about the gender-politics of the movie here, I am talking at how both those movies indulge their audience’s basest wants.
As an aasthaana gen-Z person, I can say with utmost confidence that our attention spans and our way of approaching a movie’s highs and lows have completely changed. It’s a little sad, but I hope some course correction happens in the future.
