AI can enhance beauty and imagination
During the conversation, Rajat was asked how AI could impact the depiction of natural beauty on screen.He was asked, “Earlier, Punjab used to be shown beautifully in several movies. Do you think AI filmmaking will be able to do justice to the beauty?”Responding to the query, he explained his perspective on AI’s role in visuals. “According to me, AI ends up making everything more beautiful. Our Punjab is most definitely beautiful. When one shoots in the Sarso ke khet, it looks like pure heaven on the screen. However, with the arrival of AI, a lot of things will be visually more powerful, more beautiful, and even unimaginable.”

There is no reality in it.”‘The ‘Ba***ds of Bollywood’ actor further elaborated that the scene in question was designed as a dream sequence. “It is not real. Aryan has shot it as a dream scene and fictional and not real,” he went on to add.
