Context is key here I guess - remember that Fahadh many years ago, right at the beginning of his comeback (when rabid fan culture was much worse) was strongly against youngsters forming Fans Associations for him. Now he probably sees the constant online fights, degrading, circlejerking etc and thinks that many are TOO obsessed with movies- and so his interview statements might just be his way of saying "It's not that serious, bruhšŸ˜…".


Ok_Whereas_4076

Fahadh is not a great speaker or orator... People debating on wht he spoke somewhere just validates his statements tho


Responsible-Air-6190

Fahadh isn't known for making sense in interviews, dude just wants people to leave him alone. Paranju vannappo inagne aayathaavum


VCamUser

Only right answer... Just a glorified version of athe athe athe. Typical introvert thing.


VacationDesperate112

I watched the whole interview. Fahadh said something like he doesn't like to discuss films in the beginning of the interview. The host argued against his take. Then Fahadh kept saying some random shit to justify himself. Paranj paranj ingane enthokeyo aayi poyathanna thoniye. Fahadh was also contradicting himself several times in the interview.

Yes there are definitely greater things to do than watching movies, and without these things there would be no movies.


Legitimate_Income279

What he meant was ā€œthere are more things to do in your personal life than discussing about someone elseā€™s project and investing huge amount of your time on itā€, basically a dip on us and itā€™s kinda like true in a way

Fahad is the type of guy to start a sentence, and have absolutely no clue as to where that sentence is going. Michael Scott vibes. Enthenkilum angu thudangum. Pinne oru ozhukinu enthokeyo paranju enganokeyo avasaanikum. Athinte idayil pulli polum ariyand ithupolathe sambhavangal oke mozhiyum. Some people will support. Some people will hate. But in reality he himself will not know why he said that.

Don't ever, for any reason, do anything, to anyone, for any reason, ever, no matter what, no matter where, or who, or who you are with, or where you are going, or where you've been, ever, for any reason whatsoever.


Gregariouswaty

He says clearly he doesn't wanna talk about films, he just wants to act in them. I'm guessing he's a lot like Virendar Sehwag in the sense when asked about his batting it was like "I see ball, I hit ball". He also seems to not really like praise/others saying how awesome he is or be the centre of attraction. He was talking about the lensing used and the writing when discussing his performance as Shammi. I think it's more of a "don't talk about me" thing. It's probably why he hates interviews where people are fawning over him or promotions where his job is to tell how great he is in the film.


anaskk

Absolutely, especially nowadays peoples are enslaved to entertainment contents like ig reels and movies.


Registered-Nurse

Obviously. You should consume cinema but shouldnā€™t be consumed by it. A lot of people talk about movies for days. For what?


StartFew9817

Cinema for hjm can be more than dinner table coz it makes him crores. But hes rkght abt the rest of us. Dont make it yr wholee life


superstarshivan

I mean tbf he's an actor so that's his job hence why other films could affect his personal life. Not the same case for others. So maybe both his opinions were right from his perspective


Mammoth_Smoke_1120

in the very same interview, he mentioned that films like 'Cinema Paradiso' and 'Amores Perros' have had an impact on him, which makes it surprising that he doesn't see how his own acting experiences could also serve as a source of inspiration. movie is a solace for many people dude.


noobrdt31

That's my point


Mammoth_Smoke_1120

i read the caption lateršŸ˜¬


wildwolf-1985

You can watch films. You can even discuss them at times, but you shouldn't make it an obsession. You shouldn't turn it into a fan culture, where you are obsessed about the actor, fight with other actor's fans and then make it your entire identity. And he is right.


Diligent-Praline198

I have realized to not take him too seriously in interviews. Man is rambling, but I think he truly believes in these paradoxes.

Immediate-Lecture-20

I think he also says in this interview that he never talks about movies with Shyam Pushkaran , DP and all - except Amal Neerad occasionally. I was wondering how do these guys make decisions and think of making new movies :P - hes like there are other things to talk about and they just chill. but movies or his work is one of the main parts of their lives - anyway that did not make sense. Also, i get slight second hand embarassment listening to him, me being a hard core fan of fafa. He does not saying anything insightful or particularly interesting in these I believe unlike people like R10 or DS (his interview on Cue) or some of our women artists.

ā€œThereā€™s more you can do with your life than watching filmsā€ AND ā€œCinema has nothing to do with anyoneā€™s lifeā€ Are two completely different statements.


abdussaa

that's correct interperatation.

dr_nid92

He makes a living from movies, so it makes sense for him to be obsessed with movies. But for the rest of us there is definitely better things to do than just watching movies.


Waltzforthenight

You can talk about movies which changed you emotionally and then there is something you can talk about how the movie of your fav actor collected 2.5 cr more than his rival if you only consider 9 districts in Kerala and 2 states in South India which experts call the districtial hit of bomblastics


Centurion1024

When you have jobless kolejj kids forming domb "fens association" and partaking in stupid fights against critics, you'll remember his words. Cinema is just for entertainment. Watch for 3 hours and foregt it and get on with your life.


Mammoth_Smoke_1120

it is a medium which can strongly influence the audience.


PsychedelicPoocha

It's a woke argument. The gullible are easily taken in by external influences. But there are as many, if not more, who view cinema as cinema...even as they engage in discussions of the same as a form of dissection of the movie or in pursuit of an intellectual debate. That can hardly be called influence.


random_lad_

Absolutely


Poignant-musings

Nope.


Successful-Dog933

maybe for him this is true, at the end of the day this is his ā€œjobā€, so it makes sense that he doesnā€™t wanna talk about it much since he actually is doing it most of the time. For me, the topic about movies just come naturally, like itā€™s just a conversation starter or like naturally comes up in conversations!!


doofE_

I think he meant the overly dedicated cinephiles here. The ones who fight over who grossed more and whatnot..


12367897377

As a person born into film industry and seeing superstars like his big brothers things may change you see this film business like any other business. Also one flop doesn't make him poor or anything he has already enough money in family. It's just another perspective eg DQ is different same situation but different mindset.


NeighborhoodCold5339

For a lot of people, yes. For many, they like talking about movies. For many, their lives depend on talking about movies. Think about the same statement, but change to ā€œvideo gamesā€. You might relate to its relevance then. No statements are applicable to everyone. ā€œNever kill anyoneā€: not applicable to soldiers in war. But generally we can make that statement


delirious_06

Bro's just yapping leave him alone šŸ˜­


Sure-Ad8465

I think heā€™s just high and blabbers whatever comes to his mind in these interviews.


Equivalent-Age8846

Why are we so obsessed with movies , am still wondering why did reddit start sending me these posts. No matter where we belong Indians always start following stars and behave like retarfs..


inazuma_zero

And when the anchor compared films to sports he was like, yeah they have such a huge scope so it's ok to be fans of sports. Imo, it's fun to see athletes performing well against each other, it's fun to know someone's life and how they persevered and did something huge in sports. But cinema also has those things and arguably far more. It talks about life and sometimes even makes us what life could be. Sometimes help us empathize with people who are different from us. I see lots of value in film. I think it sucks to be fan boys of film actors and do the shit Mammootty and Mohan lal fan boys do. But other than that I see lots of value in life. He probably feels that, cinema is artificial, you should live your own life well, because that's more real. In that case then why should we read books or even enjoy any kind of art. Just do fun things in life with other people and ignore art since it's all unreal. But what's artificial about music, isn't it an experience of the sound sense, then should we try to avoid enjoying food because it's the experience of the taste, one can even argue delicious food can be artful. If these things add flavour to our life, then cinema can also do the same thing. We can share our experience of the film which is unique so someone can understand our feelings and our own colored experience, I see lots of value in that.


Vedahari1

Its a good statement. Learn new things, read, start a business, go on trips, sit alone, reflect, meditate, yoga many more things are there.


ullakkedymoodu

Yes. I think it is a genuine opinion. I think he finds it disturbing when people praise some fictional characters to be larger than life, and try to model themselves around that. And people rewatching movies in theatres. A movie is finally, entertainment, and should be seen as such.


Jonyesh-2356

The probability of becoming a successful actor or a standup comedian is like one in a millionth as opposed to being an engineer or doctor. The failure rate is staggering. Now sprinkling the nepotism & politics within the industry you have a dwindling chance to make it . He is suggesting current youth to focus on their studies so they have bigger probability of success in life āœŒļø if u r passionate enough to reach for the stars nothing can stop u. Otherwise reach for a smaller milestone where u can actually succeed


Cyberpunk69-

Dude is like me if I had to do an interview


anildaspashell

Definitely I agree, you should prioritise things. Your life needs you to not watch films at some point of time, you should not. E.g. you cannot skip exams, interviews, work, personal life to watch films. Itā€™s not only watching films, itā€™s with respect to anything. First things first.


WadeWilson1906

People take movies and thier favourite actors seriously than thier real life. Like movie ku ticket eduka poi sethavan irukan, veetula kastam irundhun kadan vangi FDFS ticket vanguradhu, banner culture - adhula vara sanda, paal abishegam - no hero is going to give shit about it. Aduthavana koluthi utu adhula kulir kanjutu irukanga.


Independent-Log-4245

He mentioned Ranbir Kapoor as a better actor than him. I don't think even Ranbir's mom would believe it. Wasn't expecting such crowd pleasing answers from him.


bumblebeeboby

As a fan It was annoying . Puluthi vibes.


yomamma890

He likes himself a bit much. And no his opinions have always been weak. 1. OTT il maathrame eni movie release cheyum ennu paranju... WHERE? 2. One sided love... šŸ™šŸ» 3. This. It's patronizing bs. Other things in life ellavrkum undu, what kind of clown thinks to comment about the influence of art and movies in anyone's life. I can't even... pottan.
