It was a general feeling of the producers that ordinary cinema halls, which catered to the needs of the ordinary viewers, would fetch more profits for them and hence they were concentrating on the people who could go to multiplex cinema.

This was stated by the noted film scriptwriter Atul Tiwari while talking to newspersons here at the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT-K) here on Saturday.

Atul had come to participate at the ten-day film festival ‘Umang-2006’ organised by the members of the IIT Film Society.

Atul said the ongoing trend in the film industry under compulsions of globalisation was likely to deprive the middle class film audience of its right to watch good films at the ordinary cinema halls. He said scripts are suggested to be prepared in a manner, which could draw crowd from among the NRIs living in distant countries as they could afford to pay handsomely to the film.
