Explaining the marketing, John said, ‘My 40 interviews are not marketing. There are four p in marketing- product, place, price and promotion. You know this By giving 40 interviews, I am addressing one in only P. There are more factors to complete marketing- press, print, TV, and now digital, which is probably most important. How do you bring people to see it? This is the right of the studio. How to hold screens, it is the right of distributor.
