All projects don t need big names: Feroz Abbas Khan

New Delhi Oct 22 (IANS) Director Feroz Abbas Khan who released a five-episode courtroom drama web series on sex education titled "Sex Ki Adalat" last month believes every project does not need a well known actor s association as it s the content that eventually drives the show.

Khan s series available on YouTube covers taboo and debatable topics like India s obsession with male child virginity masturbation and menstruation infused with scientific facts in the form of a courtroom drama.

However the series is devoid of big film actors following in accordance with the latest trend of big screen actors working for the digital platform.

Khan told IANS: "Many a times it depends on what your content is and accordingly you do the casting. When I made the musical Mughal-e-Azam many people asked me this question. Today it is the biggest hit. It does not have a single known name like that.

"Some of the most popular projects on social media have not a single big name but were big because of the content. Internet is a very different world. It can clearly absolutely trend on the strength of the content."
