Why does (a portion of) the forum do this? Constantly? The minute any movie by their favorite celebrity flops, some of you guys immediately point out the lack of understanding on the part of the Indian audience. Is this funny to you? Constantly tearing apart Indians for daring to reject the films by your favorites? Every post against the continuous generalization of Indian audience is met with clamors of protest and claims of caring about Indians. If you guys have any respect for the Indians, why do you never show it when your fellow fans put them down? Some of you are mad about any kind of generalization made against the NRIs populating this forum and yet have absolutely no problem with years of hating Indian viewers. The double standards are unreal. This forum and its continuous overt and subtle criticism of Indian viewers after the films of the forum favorites flop is disgusting. Release these classy and subtle films directly overseas then, don't come crying for our money or appreciation. We are clearly not intelligent enough for this. People can say, they liked one film and it was an interesting experiment that may not be liked by everyone WITHOUT insulting Indian viewers. It's pretty easy. Try it sometime. Then, people come after me informing me how they never criticize Indians and I overreact. Us foolish Indians are smart enough to know when we're being put down. It's not that box office successful films are necessarily good films. Even us stupid Indians know that. But when films are criticized by viewers, critics and results in bad collections - can it be that the problem was probably the film? And not us stupid Indian viewers who didn't understand the subtleties which were not made explicit onscreen.
PS I don't want or care for any justifications. I have seen more than enough of this. For years too. I don't care if you don't personally do it. You don't stop it either.
