Epic war movies.
Reason : Not a single actor in bollywood who can play warrior.

I would love Bollywood films and shows aimed at teens . But these people all debut in their mid 20s thy seem to old . Atleast the men do .

Fantasy genre. I mean not mytholgoy - other wise ur option will get limited. U could any no. creatures from Indian mythology there are thousands - Daanav, Yaksh, ichadhar Naag, Rakshash - and so on - but something away from religious mytholgy - Something liike Baahubali but with more fantasy.

I think hollywood fills the void of genres BW does not do.

So no incentive to make those films.

Suprised Bollywood never made many fantasy or horror films considering the mysterious stories in India and there being quite a lot of mythological tales.

Do you guys know Star Wars had influence from Indian mythology.

I don't think we have seen a good comedy with a female lead.

I would love to see a remake of Anne Hathaway in The Intern. 😊

Sci-fi and some good mystery movies. Abbas-Mastaan gave a few mysterymovies but I want more and with giid story and suspense that is not so predictable. And a yes from my side for animation.

I liked Ajnabee and Humraaz

I really liked Aitraaz if you catch my drift 😉
