Shekhar Kapur on Indian Media...

Relationship between Indian media and society it nurtures is Schizophrenic. Indian media nurtures itself, creates its own hype, both in terms of its content and its value.

It’s noise with little content. And it’s nurtured by itself, not by the society. The system creates its own hype and perpetuates its own myth, and lives with the incest. But it is flimsy, can fall anytime.
