Reflecting on the current state of the industry, Sameer pointed out a noticeable slowdown in quality output. “There are very few films being made. And there is a slight deterioration in music. People are not getting good work anywhere,” he said. This concern, he revealed, inspired him to take matters into his own hands. “So thinking about this, I saw a dream of a music company. And I am trying to take it forward… I will keep trying that from all over the world, by creating a new platform, to people all over the world, to the creators, to people who want to do good work, we want to connect them to this. And we promise them that we will take their music to the whole world, we will take their work to the whole world.”
