New Delhi: Veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai feels that the lockdown implemented in the country is a major setback for the Indian film industry. He said, "Like any other industry, Bollywood too will face challenges in producing films." He added, "Like other industries, the film industry will also face challenges with new changes in the production of films for the big and small screen. Even after lockdown, the situation will be wet and watch. This is a big shock for us, but together we will fight it. We are waiting for theatres to re-open, we will re-release the films."

However, the director of 'Karj' believes that after this time of fighting the global pandemic, the world will become better than before. The Showman of India said, "Trust me, it will bring new knowledge and better knowledge, discipline, creative, socio-political and economic platforms by the year 2024, with it will be a better world. Changes in the meantime will bring new controversies." Chaos in the world can cause conflict and confusion, but ultimately it will settle for a better world. It will be a 'change in era' period."
