"I applaud this announcement by @myogiadityanath ji. We need many reforms in the film industry, first of all we need one big film industry called Indian film industry.. we are divided based on many factors, Hollywood films get advantage of this. One industry but many Film Cities," she wrote.

She went on to say that best of dubbed regional films don't get pan-India release but dubbed Hollywood films get mainstream release, adding that the trend was "alarming".
