00:00I think one of the major reasons for midlife crisis is larger than life image that movies
00:07and OTT platforms portray.
00:09See, that's a very lucrative argument that many of us internally cultivate.
00:16We say, no, everything is okay about our life.
00:19It's the movies that are spoiling the culture.
00:21The question is, where are the movies coming from?
00:23They're coming from the same ecosystem that is breeding you.
00:27It's impossible to have the life that you have and not have the movies that you have.
00:32Your life is boring because it lacks authenticity.
00:36Therefore, you need movies that involve thrill, adventure, sex, violence, and juicy songs
00:42and all those things.
00:44Had your lives been different, would you have required movies like that?
00:47And as long as your lives are what they are, you will continue to need those movies.
