"Love, Sex, Aur Dhokha 2," the much-anticipated sequel to the 2010 hit, is set to make its theatrical debut on April 19. Directed by Dibakar Banerjee and produced by Ekta Kapoor, this adult-themed film explores the complex theme of love in the digital era. With the release just around the corner, Dibakar Banerjee shares his thoughts on the film's reception and his lack of worry about its outcome.
Director Dibakar Banerjee Unfazed by Anticipation
While Ekta Kapoor recently voiced concerns about the film's reception, particularly in light of negative responses to a previous release in 2023, Dibakar Banerjee remains confident and stress-free. In a recent interview, he expressed his detachment from the anxiety surrounding the film's outcome. He believes that the challenges faced on social media, where both support and criticism surface, mirror the narrative themes of their films. "Our lives have turned into the stories we create," Banerjee stated, highlighting the blurred lines between reality and fiction that he, Kapoor, and others involved in the film experience.
Content Concerns and CBFC's Scrutiny
