In that case, why did films like "Avatar" and "Tin Tin", also made using the same technology, cost so much?
"Initially, it was for big budget films during the technology's experimental phase. A film like 'Avatar' was made on thousands of crore using this technology because it was during its nascent stage and the makers were exploring it," added Stilgoe.
"The west invents new technology and works on it, so there's also invention cost involved besides production cost. Whereas, India wants to just use that technology to make some money," he said.
