Film festivals such as Cannes, Stuttgart (Germany) or Melbourne help create awareness about Indian films all over the world. Of late, even foreigners are showing active interest in watching Bollywood films. When I was at Stuttgart last time, the Germans knew me! I was pleasantly surprised. I credit Yash Raj Films for marketing their film and hence popularizing Indian cinema in Europe,” adds Kohli.
