Bollywood needs to learn from Kollywood: Amitabh

Amitabh Bachchan was the chief guest at the 10th Chennai International Film Festival (CIFF), which began on December 13, ended Thursday. A total of 154 films from over 50 countries were screened at the festival.
"Bollywood may be bigger in size and popular, but it still needs to learn from the Tamil film industry. I've shot for a few films in Tamil Nadu, and built strong camaraderie with the industry, and in turn have understood how disciplined they are and the affection with which they treated me," Amitabh said at the closing ceremony of the CIFF.
"This is something Bollywood needs to learn from. The Indian film industry may be the largest in the world but a major proportion of it consists of the southern film industry. The Tamil film industry is the pivotal part in the south and one can't ignore it come what may," added Amitabh.
