are any Bollywood films actually worth watching? Indians need not apply

No, it's all musicals and really terrible special effects. Their culture is largely stagnant.

Enthiran was entertaining. I liked the epic one where they catapulted themselves over the wall with palm trees.

Lagaan, the one about playing the British in a cricket game to stop their village from being taxed. Good sports movie.

pretty much what I expected

I'll try these two, but I'm not expecting much

Bahubali was funny

I've only ever seen 3 idiots and dangal but I liked them

Apu trilogy is the only good thing.

Apparently a lot of the crazy Indian movie videos you see aren't even Bollywood but Tollywood.

RRR was kino.

RRR was amazing and I don't know why nobody ever talks about it.

>>212019486
what's the difference?

>>212019085
Are the Indian viewer numbers even worth it? The CPM for those must be $0.01

>>212019612
Tollywood has toilets.

>>212019617
... bruh that's $4.5k, and literally all youtube engagement is from browns.

>>212019464
not Bollywood. Satyajit Ray's films (and most good Indian films) were made outside the Bollywood system. I'm specifically looking for good, Indian films made within the Bollywood system. I feel like there have to at least be a few out there

... bruh that's $7.5k, and literally all youtube engagement is from browns.

They have a shit culture, and know it. That's why they demand to be shoe-horned into all things white so they can claim white culture as theirs too.

>nobody ever talks about it
You simply missed all the threads about it.
Well, the threads about this scene and the dance anyway.

>>212019617
Of course, why aren't you capitalising on the trend?

>>212019967
also why they insist on being called asian

>>212019617
we're on track to 2 billion indians by 2050
quantity beats quality

everything else is dogshit, nothing will ever surpass he kino of ROBOT

if bollywood films were any good you'd at least be seeing them shown at indie cinemas. or winning awards. the film industry has a fetish for propping up brown people. still no bollywood shit because indians are cringe af.

>>212019968
I just want to watch this for 3 hours

>>212019085
reacting to bollywood movies to gain indian subscribers seems to be a feasible tactic

Parinati 1986

>>212021146
I see them show up in my local cinema from time to time, but I have no idea if anyone actually goes and watches them

rolling for 5 or 7

i've never seen them advertised at indie theaters. fucking major ones, forget about it. i've seen popular clips on yt but they all look like nonsense. the only shit i've seen with indians that looks good are american movies. slumdog millionaire and i think the one called white monkey or something but i just watched the trailer for that and never bothered to watch it. it looked like it would be good though.

Lovecraft as right about the Indians. They implemented a caste system too late, it completely fucked their ruling caste. Brahmin may be lighter skinned, but they're compromised.

They've never built anything or maintained it and this isn't a recent stereotype.
