Unfortunate that Bollywood is still star driven, says Shonali Bose

The Sky is Pink director Shonali Bose has Priyanka Chopra and Farhan Akhtar in the lead roles in her film but the director believes it is still tough to make small film in a star-dominated industry. The 53-year-old filmmaker said there are better chances of her film drawing the audience's attention with the presence of top actors. "It is unfortunate (that the industry is) driven by star system. I do wish that was not the case. Bollywood is still star driven even for one to get backing on the script. "It is difficult to make smaller films. Like in case of Amu and Margarita, With A Straw you do not get backing by big studios as stars are not playing roles," she said.
