Veteran actor Pankaj Kapur is gearing up for the release of his upcoming film, Binny and Family, which is about overcoming generation gaps and strengthening family bonds. He emphasized the importance of every generation learning from one another and closing the communication gap.
In an interview with ANI, he said, “I (feel) there should be an effort from both sides. The problem with today's youngsters is that they have a lot of answers available on the internet, such as on Google. There are many other sources from which they feel that they can get the answers. Somewhere or the other, it is not wrong. It is correct. But the experience of parents, grandparents, and elders can also help them achieve things that may not be available on the internet or Google. So, there should be a mix of both, so that both generations can learn from each other. The most important thing is to develop trust, closeness and togetherness within the family.”
He further added, “Today's generation is advanced in many ways from other generations as they have more information. What is lacking is experience. That experience, and wisdom, can be obtained from our elders. And the elders should try to recognise the energy and communication skills of today's generation.”
Pankaj praised the writer and director of the film Ssanjay Tripaathy and said, “He has written the script so well and made my character a professor. His father was also a professor and mine too.”
While discussing his character and how the director portrayed it in the film, he stated, “So, professors have an amazing quality that they work with youngsters. It is very easy for them to relate with youngsters. And they are related to education. So, it is also easy for them to learn and teach. Mentally, they are also ready for the fact that if someone teaches, they will learn more and impart it.”
He continued, “In the film, when my character realises that his granddaughter is trying to communicate with him, he thinks that he should also try to understand the perspective of the young generation. So, this is a character of an educated person who is not only ready to teach but learn also.”
Varun Dhawan’s niece Anjini Dhawan, who is making her debut with the film, explained that the film deals with the topic of communication gap in families. She said, “It's not a generation gap, it's a communication gap. So, I think a lot of people around my age think that our grandparents or parents won't understand us. But if you don't talk to them, you won't even know that they might understand. So, I encourage everyone that you spend some more time with your parents. Sit with them, sit with your grandparents. Because whatever you learn from them, no one else can give you in life. I think it is very important to trust our parents and discuss your issues with them.”
Taking about the film, the makers recently released a 2 minute 39 seconds second trailer. It provided a glimpse into the life of Binny, a young girl who prefers to live her own way. The story takes an intriguing turn when her grandparents move in with her parents, causing difficulty due to the generational divide. The film appears to be engaging.
