Then debate elsewhere cause that ain't the purpose of this thread.

The purpose is to discuss and give your views on what you prefer but not to call a certain genre Brainless and other ones for intelligent people.

Jodhaa Akbar was big the US due to quality or due to Ash-HR casting coup and the exotic royal theme?

I said because if quality mattered then why didn't Munnabhai MBBS do some significant business abroad? Why was CDI lower than other conventional SRK films despite being a brilliant film?

Also, if quality is criteria how did Akshay's Singh is Kinng strike big overseas? (I think it did well due to Akki-Kat and the mainstream hero playing sardar)

Akshay Kumar suddenly rose up the ranks in overseas market from 2007. Did films like Namaste London and playing NRI help his rise abroad?

if someone like masala movies they people are brainless i dont get that logic

How do you spotLawyers,Doctors from the common man in the cinema halls?😲

So a common man living overseas automatically becomes intelligent coz he lives abroad?


Another thing cinema is made to entertain but not to use your brains to solve any equation.

Majority of overseas cinema chains define bollywood as masala cinema.

And that's what made bollywood what it is today

quality with bollywood touch thats the most thing they are looking for and thats why most of the massala film fail or became average and the food wom in india help too much to make the people in overseas go and watch the film in overseas they read too much just like hollywood but in india totally different case

me and my mates watched Rowdy Rathore and found it very entertaining and well worth the money. All of us are students at Uni either studying law, arts, science, engineering or management. I guess we're all dumb and illiterate

So only intelligent people lives in USA and UK? Aunties are intelligent too? Wait so romantic sagas are as mindless as masalas.

On a side note agneepath was masala

Brainless or mindless? It's a subjective matter. Coz Housefull 2 did better than Agneepath overseas

Dabangg 2 and Bol Bachchan also did really well this year which you would call mindless ? Explain? Oh and the mega ETT too.

Explain. Oh and JTHJ had a very intelligent too i guess.

Not every thing that has script is gold or every thing you might call Brainless is rubbish.

Masala,Massy,Leave your brains home. to name a few are:
