Filmmaker Madhur Bhandarkar on Monday said a good movie will always lure the audiences to theatres and he believes that the current lull period of the Hindi film industry is just a passing "phase". The 54-year-old director, known for films such as `Chandni Bar`, `Page 3`, `Fashion`, `Jail` and `Heroine`, hoped that the film industry will bounce back soon.
"I have seen this industry very closely since a very long time. Earlier piracy was rampant and it was said that theatres would shut down as people were watching films on video cassettes. Similarly, when cable and OTT came in, people said the same thing again that the industry would shut down. There are some films that have not worked today. But there have been good films in the last six-eight months that have worked commercially. So, a good film works. There is a phase in every industry," Bhandarkar told reporters here.
