Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap said that every good film should be considered as a commercial film.
"I'm hoping that every good film is a commercial film. Every good film should be a commercial film. And my definition of commercial is that if the film goes out and people engage in it and it earns money, then it is a commercial film," said Mr Kashyap at a press meet for Titli.
"The first mistake that we make is that without even watching the film we tag it as 'parallel'. Titli is not parallel cinema. Titli is that strong, impactful and good cinema which we're watching and our audience is going to watch it. And Titli is that kind of a film that I can't remember how many times I have watched it. And every time I watch it, I get immersed in it," he added.(Also Read: Titli Trailer Stars a Family of Rogues, One of Who Wants to Break Free)
Regarding the favourable phase for commercial cinema, he said: "This has been building up since so many years, and the phase is so good that in every one or two months, such films are releasing."
Dibakar Banerjee, who has produced Titli, said: "We try to identify if we can release the film in more than 300-400 screens. If a so called independent cinema and so called new thinking cinema like this can touch 300-500 screens, then it means that it's a big step for the film. And we're aiming for that."
Directed by Kanu Behl, Titli is scheduled to release on October 30.
