Indian Studios Embrace AI For Filmmaking
Reuters reports on April 4, 2026 that Indian studios are rapidly adopting AI to produce full films, perform AI dubbing and recut older titles, driven by tighter budgets and streaming pressure. Companies like Collective's Galleri5 and JioStar are rolling out mythology-based AI content that has drawn tens of millions of views but poor audience ratings in some cases. The shift promises lower costs, faster production and raises legal, rights and quality challenges for creators and distributors.
Scoring Rationale
High score reflects Reuters' first detailed account of an industry-wide shift, strong sourcing from interviews and site visits, and clear commercial implications. The score is trimmed slightly because the report lacks deep technical detail on specific models and audience reception has been mixed.
