      I think that goes a long way. He's humble cause he knows such massive initiatives and successes are almost always a team effort. One person taking complete credit for the success of a company is quite a controversial statement. He seems to be a fantastic leader!

      Completely agree but it is still commendable that he has that kind of clarity and grounded nature.

    @TheDremzzzz 10 месяцев назад +97

    Vijay very smartly avoided and digraced( intentionally) from the main question and spun off to how poorly writers and musicians are paid and no word on how to fix some actors charging a bomb.. Mr. Ajay and Sajith were polite enough to listen patiently to all the crap 😂

    • @adityarajadhyaksha3635
      @adityarajadhyaksha3635 9 месяцев назад +3

      with regards to the Price of Talent/astronomical fees charged by certain actors i think Vijay digressed instead of taking on the elephant in the room. Simply put the question Nikhil was trying to understand was- how do we justify the 100/150 cr fees that we hear certain actors charge for films? How does one make sense of this/ how does it all add up. To this, i would like to add my 0.02$ as follows:
      1. Demand-Supply gap for mass appeal movie stars: firstly, there are actually very few (just 6-8 actors) in the entire industry that actually command a fee which is say equal to or more than the film budget (The 100 cr fee club!!). These are just a handful of movie stars who have MASS APPEAL stardom. They popularity transcends geographies, cultures, socio-economic stratas.. they have a huge fan following ranging from the movie centres in the hinterland, to a tony multiplex in South Mumbai and even foreign shores. these 6/8 movie stars totally account for about 10-12 film releases in a year. This, is in an industry that releases 300 films a year. So as you can imagine, fundamentally there is a big DEMAND- SUPPLY mismatch for these movie stars and therefore it is safe to assume that they would always charge a significant premium.
      2. Monestisation methods: With regards to justifying the actual amount- one has to look at monetisation of a movie. A large part of the monies accrue even before a film is released. For example sale of OTT rights/ satellite rights are sold on the strength of the star headlining the film- long before the film releases. The opening weekend collections of a film are again largerly on the star power of the actor, those bookings happen even before a review hits the street. for large productions with these mega stars, these collections combined account for close too 200/250 cr- and these dont accrue because of a postiive review or a great film- its purely the star power. So what these stars claim is a lions share of this revenue (50-60%) which is largely attributable to their popularity. The remainder that the producer gets, allows him/her to recover the cost of the film and the theatrical share is pure profit.
      3. Opportunity cost: today the opportunity cost for one these mass movie stars is a minimum of 1.5/2 cr per day. If they arent doing a film, they have multiple avenues to monetise (advertising/ social media posts/ stage shows/ appearances/ tv shows)- each of which earns them a minimum of 1.5/2 cr for a days work. So, when a producers asks these movie stars for 60-70 days to shoot a film- their opp cost is 100 cr at the very least.

    • @harijariwala7472
      @harijariwala7472 8 месяцев назад +1

      i think some actors charging high fees is acceptable since the 80% business falls on their soulders. but whatever he said about the musicians is very very real. i am a music producer myself and i have no intention to be jump into bollwood because i know how dirty it is and how much of money these labels/studio makes and how much the artist gets from it. and these called agencies are also part of it because whatever little amount artist gets from that too agency takes its share. so its fucked up biz for artist. atleast i am independent and happy earning good enough royalties knowing i have all the rights to my music and i will be recieving the royalties from all the songs that has released for atleast 100 years to come! because eveyrthing is automatically split and streamlined effortlessely that it justs credits to my bank everymonth with detailed report from where each penny came from.

      and producer spends more than he does on the writers and technicians on them! ! otherwise the star will leave their movie

    • @arkay5004
      @arkay5004 6 месяцев назад

      Not sure if you even understood the argument.
      Notwithstanding, if one were to truly compare the sizes of movies without VFX and IMAX costs, I'm sure that star fees would be the highest portion of a movie's cost across the globe. Ofc with stars being worshipped in India the proportion is higher, but again, it's a fair and free market.

    The content industry is one of the cut-throat industries, the artists are the most egoist people to work with as they live in their own world. No matter what production line we discuss, the one who is a blend of writer-director-player-producer would make the best of the Money. An example, is Rakshit, Rishab Shetty. If you listen to Charlie's interview with Rakshit, he addresses that movie is targeting dog lovers in the north, so, some thought went into making money, it is not just fights, flesh, romance etc - it is the connection that brings in..

    Nikhil you are amazing 🤩. This is not a podcast. It is pure, unrefined conversation between bright minds.
    And Nikhil please don't feel sorry to digress. I think the show goes to another level when you stray.

    Loved the humility of Ajay sir who has seen three decades in the industry and is yet so accommodating. While Vijay who is just an apparatus for inflating talent speaks as if he has delivered success since ages and a know it all. Sajit also comes from managing google . Yet the privileged guy who manages talent is talking over the rest.

    The quality of these podcasts is just out of the world. Thanks for doing this. I just wish and hope these reaches to as many people as it can. Another idea is maybe we can create a community donation pool where the viewers can donate and you can probably collect and make the final donation.

    This was fantastic! Nikhil Kamath made a great impression on me during his first podcast with Ranveer Allahbadia years ago, where he shared his journey of Zerodha. I understood this guy is one of the greatest minds, but seeing him in action and with the immense hunger to learn about various and diverse things, just inspires me to a whole another level.
    A big heartfelt thank you to all 3 panellists for sharing their tremendous insights and opinions. Learnt a lot :)

    fantastic episode nikhil. i am a writer and filmmaker myself and yes it is true the industry is opaque and there are so many times you actually feel if there really is money here, in this line of work but after listening to the constant emphasis on how important the creator(writer) is to this ecosystem it gives me hope and that is what i take away..

What I learnt from these 8 epic episodes is how to recognise🏅 someone genuinely without faking n make them feel valued ( ofcourse for that you need to know the ' actual ' person n learn about their work) + how to make the folks feel ' comfortable ' so that you can get the best out of them. Thanks again🙏

    @dhruvbijani9064 10 месяцев назад +4

    One flaw in Vijay's argument is what does a creator loose if content doesn't work?? Nothing tangible. Artist getting chance to showcase the talent, tell the story, express the ideology on back of the financier and if doesn't work he walks away to next project without life altering consequences. But if a production fails producers can't walk away without consequences to the next one.

Sadly not impressed with majority of podcasts and those that host them, most are inexperienced, not natural communicators, and low on maturity. These Gentlemen with vasts amount of knowledge, clearly respect one another, and still be friendly even if they disagree. I find that civility lacking of here, sadly. But all praise to them, learned so much🙏🙏🙏🙏

    As an aspiring scriptwriter for the past 6 years, I must say this is the first time ever that ever so spoken words "Content is the king" got the right time width. I have seen producers, actors and studio heads shouting we must empower writers but the reality in the 'word to action' ratio is 1:1000 and it's disheartening because it always felt like a PR game to speak those words. Just speak and nothing else. Let's see what this does...

    Almost everything that Vijay (talent management guy) said is bullshit. Round and round the issue, without concrete objective points.
    He was asked about high fees of stars, somehow ended up talking about scripts and writers. That was totally not the question. He just pivoted so he doesn't have to answer.
