Tubelight director Kabir Khan says politics is no longer a taboo in Bollywood

Politics is no longer seen as a taboo in Hindi movies, holds director Kabir Khan, many of whose films deal with thorny, contemporary issues. 

The director of the upcoming film "Tubelight" stresses that it is important for him to give a societal context to the stories that he deals with. 

"When I used to watch Bollywood films, I would struggle with the fact that our cinema was set in La La Land, with no social or political context. So I decided that whenever I make a film, I'll try to put some context about what's happening," Khan said.

Meanwhile, Kabir Khan also announced that the film will release on Eid.
