People know our cinema nationally. In fact, they are wanting to see the cinema from every part.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Aishwarya believes people now need to think unconventionally, beyond the boundaries of language or region. She added, \u201cEverybody can view cinema for what it is, across India. So I think we need to kind of break away from this conventional way of thinking and help our viewers, our audiences, and our readers also to not slide into that typical way of viewing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The actor, who is currently promoting Mani Ratnam\u2019s\u00a0<strong>Ponniyin Selvan 1<\/strong>, continued, \u201cArt has always been there, found the audience, and has been appreciated; so, have the artists. But avenues were limited. Today is a great time when it has become accessible to everybody. And proof of the pudding is in the eating, right?
