Script works for films, not star-cast: Kunal Kemmu

Actor Kunal Kemmu believes that the success of a film depends upon impressive storyline and not on the number of big names in the cast.

"Films are not about solo hero or multi-starrer. They are about stories. I don't think it is always a serious attempt from anybody's (actor or filmmaker) side to do a multi-starrer or solo," Kunal told IANS.

"Sometimes there is story of a couple, which becomes a love story, sometimes there are stories of an individual which becomes a biopic. In the same way, we have stories of families," he added.
