Much has been written about filmmaking in the yesteryears when the whole unit would interact as a family, sharing small joys with the big ones.But now the life-in-the-fast-track-syndrome seems to have robbed the industry of the camraderie that artistes earlier were known to enjoy.

And the mighty Bachchan, who has spent more than 3 decades in the industry, endorses this changing trend and said, `Yes I do think so. I find co-workers are much more impersonal and detached than they used to be ten years ago. Of course, there is still a great sense of camaraderie, but perhaps the change in people is because techniques have changed.`

Ruefully he concluded, `For whatever reason, I find that the industry has turned into an extremely impersonal place, a place I don`t know much about.` Philosophic gems from the greying patriarch of Indian cinema!
