Actor Aamir Khan has urged writers to not stop amid the Covid-19 induced lockdown and rather, continue with “more enthusiasm”. A media report quoted him as saying, “Budding scriptwriters should continue writing with more enthusiasm, especially during these times. Every filmmaker needs a good script.”
The actor is on the panel of judges for an initiative that awards five winners with a cash prize of Rs 50,00,000. In a video announcing the winners of the contest, Khan said, “Those who did not make it to the top five should not get discouraged. In fact, scriptwriters should continue writing with more enthusiasm, especially during these times. Every filmmaker needs a good script.”
