'An educated society will be able to decipher the difference between good and bad and hopefully that will reflect in the kind of writing that our cinema has,' he said here Monday at the launch of the online portal The Big Indian Picture.u00a0'Until then I guess you will have to take a very safe path. A path which is not very difficult to understand for a person who is not that educated yet at the same time subtly be able to pass a message. So, I would give a lot of respect to Indian cinema because it has to tread this very narrow path,' he added.u00a0
Meanwhile, the 69-year-old defended the song-and-dance routine in Hindi films saying it only reflects the way Indian society has been.u00a0'If you go back in time or the small towns, villagers have always played an important role.
