For keeping nation together, uniformity and common sharing of purpose of existence is essential. Contribution of film industry for forging and strengthening of that commonality for India is not just noteworthy but is perhaps unsurpassed by many of socio-political groupings.
Even towards remastering and mass popularising of common language for nation, Hindi or Hindustani, film industry has tried to more aggressively contribute than any of the politico-bureaucratic backrooms which only complicated it to keep it beyond easy access of common people.
History or even religion could have never been able to mark such a strong imprint on citizenry’s mindsets recently as has been stamped by creativity and nation wide penetrating reach of the film industry.
Can't deny that some of most commonly popular gods of 20th-21st century like Saibaba or Santoshi Mata received wholehearted support of films to breach limits of localised popularity and go really global.
Recognition of that superior contribution of the film industry is fortunately well entrenched in every remote corner of India and manifests thru people’s overtly expressed love for films, songs and stars.
Downplaying or criticising film industry is unfortunately a street entertaining narrative, by those who are in perpetual denial of its popularity and usefulness. Regular calls for boycotting films is a representing signal for that frustration.
It is not that one can ignore numerous negative activities or observations which may ingress any creative field of mass following, large emploment and wealth creation though those remain outweighed by the numerous positives from this industry.
