Action star Jackie Chan has a message for Asia's film industry: Unite against American movies or risk losing your culture.
Chan has starred in a string of Hollywood blockbusters , including "Rush Hour" and its sequel, and plans to start shooting "Rush Hour 3" soon.
But he told The Times of India that that such movies erode the culture of Asian countries, saying "Asians should unite against American cinema."
"Why do we need to ape their culture," Chan reportedly said. "I see an Indian saying 'Yo Man!' but that's not what Asian are about."
India, like Hong Kong, has its own thriving film industry, known as Bollywood. While American movies are shown in Indian cinemas, Hindi movies dominate the big screens on the subcontinent.
"Cinema reflects culture and there is no harm in adapting technology, but not at the cost of losing your originality," Chan said.
