Haasan: protect workers' pay, trust India

Haasan made it clear that cutting costs shouldn't mean cutting workers' pay or safety.
He also wondered why so many Indian films are shot abroad, saying, "Why must every love story bloom only in Paris, and every honeymoon end in Switzerland?

Instead, he encouraged filmmakers to trust India's own cultural and natural beauty, making sure every rupee spent really counts without losing creativity or ethics.
