Milap Zaveri on Mass Cinema's Comeback, ‘Dhurandhar’ Hype and AI | Director's Cut

In this Director’s Cut interview, Milap Zaveri, the ‘Satyameva Jayate’ and ‘Ek Deewane Ki Deewaniyat’ director, tells Variety India EXCLUSIVELY why mass cinema is back, how ‘Dhurandhar’ changed Bollywood and why content is king. In this in-depth conversation, Zaveri breaks down the post-COVID box-office revival — from films crossing 500-700 crore to surprise hits like ‘Gadar 2’ and ‘12th Fail’ proving audiences want content over star power. He analyses ‘Dhurandhar’s’ journey from being 'written off' to becoming a movement. The filmmaker argues that Bollywood's biggest mistake was abandoning mass entertainment to chase critical approval: 'We stopped making films for the masses because we wanted to be cool.' He credits YRF, Siddharth Anand’s ‘Pathaan’ for proving commercial Hindi cinema can still dominate. Zaveri also opens up about his bond with John Abraham ('He resurrected my career.’), and reveals his next film stars Harshvardhan Rane. And finally, he offers perspective on why he believes AI can never replace human writing in film.
