In his characteristic candor, Naseeruddin Shah revealed his attempt to engage with two highly anticipated Indian films, 'RRR' and 'Pushpa.'

During an interview, Naseeruddin Shah delved further into his cinematic philosophy, expressing, "I have confidence that smaller films like 'Ramprasad ki Terahvein' and 'Gulmohar' will secure their place because I have great faith in the younger generation. They are highly evolved and possess a wealth of knowledge. Beyond the excitement, I can't fathom what more one could expect." These words not only reflect his optimism in the budding talents of the film industry but also underline his belief in the transformative power of storytelling.

While he admitted to not having watched films like 'The Kerala Story' and 'Gadar 2,' he was aware of their content. His reservations stemmed from his concern about films such as 'Kashmir Files' enjoying such unprecedented popularity.
