TIL Desk Bollywood/ Actress Bhumi Pednekar, who is doing a Netflix show titled “Lust Series” which will have stories by directors like Zoya Akhtar, Karan Johar, Anurag Kashyap and Dibaker Banerjee, is grateful there’s no censorship on the internet. She says it gives creative people the freedom to show what they believe in. Bhumi finds it “phenomenal” that the digital medium is allowing a variety of subjects and genres in the entertainment industry.
“Thank God for the internet, thank God for these amazing portals that are there. For instance, Netflix and Amazon. The kind of content the audience has got to see has gone up drastically and because of this, the quality of work will go up too. You can now not show audience any cheap Rs 2 thing that has no thought gone into it. They are not going to appreciate it,” Bhumi told.
“The fact that we don’t have censorship on the internet really gives you a lot of freedom as makers and creative people do what they believe in,” she added. Bhumi is glad that “Lust Series” is releasing digitally instead of coming out on another medium.
