Bollywood: A Tribute to Mediocrity

Bollywood, a combination of ‘Bombay’ and ‘Hollywood’ is one of the world’s largest film producing centers in the world, having even overtaken America. Some complain, the term that finds a place in the Oxford Dictionary makes it sound like a poor cousin of Hollywood. Its movies are unabashedly escapist, with the formulaic dancing around trees, and are unapologetically inspired by classics the world over, and even by those at home. I have collected some of the most remarkable movies of modern times- the ones that I have seen, and discussed them from a cynical, abrasive and paisa-vasool audience’s jaundiced point of view.
It’s a whacky take on Indian Cinema! Don’t Mind and enjoy the ride.
