Which genre is Bollywood weakest in? Both quality-wise and BO-wise?

What are the genres in which Bollywood didn't really produce nice films to watch or talk of?

IMO it's fantasy. They treat this genre as kiddie genre. Their casting goes wrong, special effects, sets are all kind of tacky. From whatever I've seen, I haven't found any good film in this genre from Bollywood.

Your choices and opinions please.

All genres except for romance, comedy and family drama. Horror, Suspense, Sci-fi, fantasy are so pathetically picturized.

Animation! Both commercially and quality wise, BW fails in this department!

Horror probably... I haven't watched many, but of the ones I have, they tend to make me laugh and look more like comedies.

Science fiction, horror, and fantasy.

Lately even comedies. 😕

Horror is a JOKE in Bollywood. Those stupid Ramsay Brothers' films are a laughing stock. Other so called modern horror films are also useless or straight lifts from Hollywood films.

Same old aatma, tantrik, some remedy for ghost through nimbu mirchi or seance or holy blanket! 🤪

Horror films in Bollywood are known more for sex than horror/chills/thrills itself!

Apart from all those mentioned above, movies where the heroine is a the main protagonist. Even the most brilliant of stories, acting and screenplays fail to make these movies successful.

Everything apart from romance, family drama and masala movies. Children and teen genre is non-existent. Fantasy, sci-fi, mythology is also not explored. Action is existing only in the masala genre.
