Very interesting read..TFS. You topic doesn't make me feel like am losing my brain cells on this forum. Am always learning and finding things out from your posts. 😊

I had no idea films are getting shorter in Bollywood. I think that's a great idea..these days people would rather watch a TV show Han a film and I think it's because TV shows are much shorter than films. At least that's how it is for me. Am so busy with school, if I need to take a break and watch something it's much more easier to watch a TV show than a film.

However, I hope this doesn't mean Bollywood will soon get rid of songs in films..because main reason why Bollywood films work is because if the songs.

Thank you for the appreciation. 😊

Tbh I do also post stupid and ridiculous articles from time to time so that I can get some laughs. But my main reason for joining BW forum was so that I can learn new things about BW. Therefore I'm always looking to post articles like these to maybe get a discussion started and in the process see what other's opinions are about the topic.

^ your welcome. The silly topics re fun to don't get me wrong..but we should balance it out with the kind of topics you post on this forum. I can see you are interested in learning new things about Bollywood..it's reflected through your posts. 😊

Am also the same..I like learning about the behind the scenes stuff like this topic about Bollywood. And having a good discussion rather than always arguing about celebs..those are fun sometimes but not all the time!

2hrs should be max without songs it should be around 1 45 long movies are quite tedious and audience don't have much time nowadays

Mujhse Fraandship Karoge was 100 minutes too! 😳 I wish they made a sequel to this movie, 100 minutes wasn't enough.

Ayan's YJHD last year was nearly three hours, likewise PK. I think if the content is good (and lasting) then no matter how long the film is, it'll get a lot of viewership.

That's a much wonderful idea😆

Seedhi baat no bakwaas.

Movies like VZ are good,but that length bored me. In future please shorter length movies please. 😆

Mardaani and baby had no songs as such.

I loved both movies.

They can release the songs online or in CD.
