Cannes 2022: "Aryabhatta, Sundar Pichai Have Bigger Fans Than Actors," Says Madhavan

Madhavan, on Thursday, said that Indian cinema has largely neglected extraordinary stories from the science and technology field and its many pioneers, whose followers eclipse the number of fans that movie stars have in the country. Speaking at the inaugural event of the Indian Pavillion at Cannes Film Festival, actor Madhavan said, "From Aryabhatta to Sundar Pichai, we have such extraordinary stories as far as science and technology is concerned. We are not making movies about them, they are an inspiration for youngsters around the world. They have bigger fans than actors." (Video credit: ANI)
