These days, more and more actors are turning producers and starting their own production houses; did you ever try guessing the reason behind the same? Earlier, actors used to become producers to launch their kids in the film industry, but now, even young actors are starting their own companies. Yes, India is crazy about Bollywood and here, anything is POSSIBLE.
The filmmaking world has changed a lot and many production houses have popped in, for pumping in money for films. 1 good film can make a producer super successful. Yes, this is the reason why many actors are trying their luck with production. Moreover, even newcomers get a good chance to prove themselves through these production houses.
Many actors turn producers not for making money or for offering an opportunity to newcomers, but for future security. Yes, after a period of time, the actor loses his worth in the industry and after this, it becomes extremely difficult to get good films. With a production house, new movies can be fabricated and the acting career can be revived.
Film industry is quite unpredictable and you never know what will happen the very next moment; hence, it’s good to have a backup plan.
