Independent films like “Masaan”, “Court”, “Chauthi Koot” and “Titli” have of late made India proud at film festivals globally, but actor Ranvir Shorey says Indian cinema still has a long way to go to make its presence felt. “With the production of such (indie) films, it’s a small step to a great journey that lies ahead of us, because as self-sufficient as Bollywood is on the international platform, it is still seen as some kind of a novelty or a freak show,” Ranvir . “When we have films which speak the international language and hold the international grammar of cinema, it affects people and communicates with them worldwide. It’s something which we desperately need as a film industry.”
