"I am going to produce a movie of my own. I am not going to stick to the time-tested formulae of Hindi cinema. I want to make a film for the present generation. So there will be a lot of new faces in the film"
About this Quote
The real voltage is in “not going to stick to the time-tested formulae of Hindi cinema.” He’s naming what everyone in the industry understands but rarely attacks so plainly: the safe architecture of songs, stars, and familiar emotional beats that hedges against financial risk. “Time-tested” is the polite term; the subtext is fatigue. Bedi positions himself as modern without sounding contemptuous, framing rebellion as generational responsibility rather than ego.
“I want to make a film for the present generation” is strategic phrasing. It borrows the language of youth culture and urgency, implying that Hindi cinema has drifted out of sync with its audience. He’s selling relevance as a moral and market necessity at once, a pitch to both critics and investors: this won’t just be different, it will be timely.
Then comes the concrete proof: “a lot of new faces.” That’s not only aesthetic freshness; it’s an attempt to break the gravitational pull of the star system and the nepotistic pipeline it can imply. New faces promise risk, discovery, and a reset button - and they also announce Bedi’s confidence that the film’s appeal can come from concept and craft, not just celebrity.
