Pushkar Jog, who makes his Bollywood debut as an actor and a director with "Huff! It's Too Much", believes it is very important for newcomers to get the right support to achieve success.

I believe there is somebody or the other backing newcomers. But if there isn't, then it is a problem. Yes, talent is necessary, but what would you do with talent if it doesn't reach the audience? The time spent on the film is wasted," Pushkar said in an interview.

Producer T.P. Aggrawal is backing Jog's film and he has taken upon himself to release the movie in India.

Pushkar is happy with the support, but wishes that had a bigger brand lent support to his project, it would have meant bigger things.

"If someone bigger than T.P. sir was backing this film, the promotions were massive, then it would have been a different story. But whatever happens, happens for good," Pushkar said.

"Huff! It's Too Much", releasing Oct 25, also marks the debut of foreign model Armeena Rana Khan.
