Suniel Shetty said – Content does matter
Actor Suniel Shetty said in an interview to Aaj Tak, 'I think the scene of Bollywood Vs South Film Industry has been made on social media.

Suniel Shetty further says, 'I also come from South but my workplace is Mumbai and that's why we are called Mumbaikars. Now the audience is deciding which film they should watch and which film they should watch. Our problem is that we have forgotten the audience.
Be it cinema or OTT... the father will remain the father and the rest of the family members will remain only members. Bollywood will always be Bollywood and we should think that content is king at this point of time. If you recognize India, you will also recognize the heroes of Bollywood.
Mahesh Babu said at the trailer launch event of his upcoming film Major, 'I get many offers from Hindi films but I don't think they can afford me. So I don't want to waste my time working in Hindi films.
After the ruckus on his statement, Mahesh Babu clarified on it. The actor's PR team said, 'South Superstar had said that he loves cinema and respects all languages. He says that I am very comfortable working in the South film industry right now. I am happy that my dream is coming true and Telugu cinema is scaling heights.
