Adil Hussain: Society's Values Shift from Knowledge to Wealth
25 Jul
Summary
- Relationships have changed, leading to a more fragmented society and families.
- Societal respect has shifted from knowledge (Saraswati) to wealth (Lakshmi).
- Modern independence changes the definition and integrity of personal values.
Actor Adil Hussain believes that evolving relationships have led to a more fragmented society and familial structures. He contrasts his own upbringing in a joint family with today's nuclear families, suggesting that prolonged physical distance can diminish the appreciation for nuanced connections.
Reflecting on changing societal values, Hussain pointed out a notable shift from respecting knowledge to venerating wealth. He stated that while financial stability is necessary, wealth should ideally be guided by wisdom.
These observations were made during promotions for 'Max, Min and Meowzaki,' a film written and directed by Padmakumar Narasimhamurthy. The movie is currently being screened in theaters across the country.
