Film critic Saqib Saleem, speaking to The Times of India, emphasized that modern audiences are increasingly looking for strong storytelling rather than the predictable formulaic films that have dominated the box office for years. He noted that while commercial success often hinges on familiar tropes, viewers are now demanding fresh narratives that resonate on a deeper level. Saleem added that the industry should focus on content quality to meet this evolving taste. The comment comes amid growing discussions about the need for innovation in Bollywood’s cinematic offerings. Industry insiders say that such a shift could influence future production choices and marketing strategies.
