Kabir Khan REACTS to Donald Trump’s 100% duty on | Indian Movie News
US President Donald Trump has triggered debate in the global leisure industry with his latest declaration—plans to impose a 100 per cent tariff on motion pictures produced exterior the United States. The announcement, made via posts on his social media platform Truth Social, drew sharp reactions from filmmakers around the world, including Indian director Kabir Khan.
Trump argued that worldwide productions have undermined America’s movie industry, writing, “California, with its weak and incompetent Governor, has been particularly hard hit! Therefore, in order to solve this long-time, never-ending problem, I will be imposing a 100 per cent Tariff on any and all movies that are made outside of the United States.” He additional claimed that international nations had “stolen” moviemaking from the U.S., likening it to “taking candy from a baby.”
Responding to the remarks, Kabir Khan questioned both the feasibility and readability of the proposal. Speaking to NDTV, he said, “I have no idea what he means when he says ‘made outside of the United States’ because every second Hollywood film is shot outside of the USA, the VFX is executed outside of the USA. And tariff on what? The ticket price? His statement is too broad to be understood properly. Firstly, let’s see if he remembers this tomorrow when he wakes up.”
The filmmaker’s feedback spotlight considerations across the industry about how such a coverage may even be enforced, particularly given Hollywood’s heavy reliance on worldwide taking pictures areas, post-production hubs, and expertise swimming pools.
