AR Rahman expresses his hatred over the word 'Bollywood', says 'it is so generic and condescending'

Updated : Apr 12, 2021, 14:15 IST

Oscar-winning music composer and singer AR Rahman is making news these days due to his upcoming film '99 Songs' which he has produced and co-written. Recently, while talking to an entertainment portal, the ace music composer has expressed his displeasure with the term 'Bollywood'. He said, 'the one thing I believed in, that each production should have a voice and nothing should be generic or that this is how Indian movies are. Already we are making our movie industry generic by calling it Bollywood. Anything that comes from any part of the country is called Bollywood, which is also a rip-off of Hollywood. It’s disrespect to our filmmakers and amazing workers.'
