Spoke for future of cinema, not to hurt any community: Adoor
The New Indian Express Kottayam
|August 05, 2025
Clarifies that he supports govt granting funds to members of SC/ST communities & others
FILMMAKER Adoor Gopalakrishnan has clarified that his remarks at the Kerala Film Policy Conclave on Sunday were never intended to hurt any community, after a controversy erupted over his comments on government funding for films.
"I support the intention behind giving a ₹1.5-crore grant to the SC/ST community members and others," Adoor told TNIE on Monday.
"There was a time when I travelled to Madras multiple times to conclude a movie shoot. That era is already over. Now, editing is done on the film set itself. Such advanced technology helps us make movies at a lower cost. Therefore, instead of granting ₹1.5 crore to one person, the government could give ₹50 lakh each to three people. This would ensure a platform and opportunity for more people."
He suggested mandatory training for newcomers to ensure quality productions.
