Kodak has been studying the Indian market for the past eight months so as to understand the local context and ecosystem.
"India has several independent markets within the country. More than 1,500 feature films are shot in India every year. The majority of the European box office is controlled by the content from the US, whereas in India, the local industry rules. Moreover, the industry in India is very fast-paced," said Richter.
