Netflix and Amazon gave daring Indian filmmakers hope. Now that's turning to fear
CNN
Screenwriter and director Ruchi Narain struggled for decades to find steady work in the Indian film industry.
Even with two major, critically acclaimed films under her belt — "Kal: Yesterday and Tomorrow," a thriller she wrote and directed, and "Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi," a political drama that won Bollywood's equivalent of an Academy Award — the work just wouldn't come. "I struggled a lot because I am an outsider and a woman," Narain told CNN Business. "I was meeting people every week but it all went nowhere." That changed when Netflix (NFLX) arrived in India in 2016.More Related News
