Brad, whose company, Plan B Pictures, has already picked two Oscars, one for 12 Years a Slave and another for Moonlight; spoke about his efforts to make better cinema.
SRK, on the other hand, said that one needs to become a part of the system to start making better cinema.
“When I came in 25 years ago I wanted to make some films and I haven't made all of them because you have to be a part of the system. I produce films that no one else will produce, films that nobody else wants to make. Now, we make some films to make money to produce those films,” said Khan.
