Heeramandi Actor Jason Shah On Toxic Dhurandhar: Ranveer Singh's blockbuster film 'Dhurandhar' featured a lot of bloodshed and action. A lot of space was given to violence in the teaser of actor Yash's upcoming film 'Toxic', which came amid the release of this film. Actor Jason Shah has expressed strong objection to the increasing violence in Indian cinema and has also opposed these films. Also told that religion and politics have had a deep influence on films all over the world.

Jason Shah is known for Sanjay Leela Bhansali's superhit web series 'Hiramandi'. He played the role of Officer Cartwright in it. In an interview, Jason said, "Religion and politics have had a deep impact on films, not only in India, but all over the world. You can see all the hidden messages in films. Times have changed, cinema is an art that talks to people, connects with them, so if films do not evolve, people may lose interest in them."

Such things were said on the teaser of 'Toxic'

Jason further said, "I think the innocence of films has been lost. Will everyone go to see 'Partner' (2007 film) today? I don't think so. People want to see too much violence." Referring to Yash's Toxic, he further said, "I was watching the teaser of Toxic, which shows how much our thinking has developed as filmmakers."

Such statement given on 'Dhurandhar'

After Toxic, Jason gave a surprising statement about Dhurandhar. On this film of Ranveer Singh and Akshay Khanna, the actor says, "People were enjoying seeing the violence in Dhurandhar and I was shocked to see this. Parents took their small children to watch the film. Dhurandhar was politically inspired. It was the story of an incident that happened in India. A very serious subject and people like to know the opinion of others on this subject."

Jason will be seen in Vijay's 'Jana Nayakan'

Heeramandi web series was released in the year 2024, which also featured actors like Aditi Rao Hydari, Sharmin Sehgal, Fardeen Khan, Sonakshi Sinha, Farida Jalal, Shekhar Suman, Manisha Koirala, Richa Chadha and Sanjeeda Sheikh.
