Gurinder Chadha argues that having people of colour as leads in films makes financiers wary, impacting her ability to secure funding for diverse projects.
Despite the success of Bend It Like Beckham, which grossed 60m, Gurinder Chadha notes that investors remain hesitant to support her films centered on Asian experiences.
Chadha highlights the industry's reluctance to invest in diverse films, stating that investors need to act to increase representation, or progress will stall.
She expresses disbelief at the financial industry's cautiousness, wishing it would embrace a wider array of stories and perspectives in cinema.
