Some themes that are disappearing from Bollywood?

I think we no longer see them in movies and probably they'll slowly disappear forever?

1. Joint families & issues.
(PRDP was one? But even that was smaller family compared to HSSH or HAHK, no?😆)

2. Siblings/Mother-Son/daughter lost and found😆
Google/FB karlo, bhagwaan ka baap bhi mil jaayega iss zamaane mein😆

3. No more iconic villains like Gogo, Loooins n Raaaberts or Gabbars.

4. Under cover cops/agents?

What else?

Simple stories of common man, Amol palekar- Hrishikesh Mukherjee type movies
Clean comedy movies are also missing

Clean humour.
I miss normal and clean jokes .. all comedies are now based on sexual innuendoes and its pukeworthy! 🤢

I think joint family issue should be made at once but in today's problems n a simple family rather the royal one in PRDp
The complexity of career ,importance of each other ,something I like that

@Bold: So true.

Amol Palekar reminds me... We no longer even have diffident heroes, no? Like in Chhoti si baat.

@All: Everyone's missing a good comedy, I see. 😆 We don't have situational comedies any more... it's forced humour or pushing a Bharti or Krushna on our faces🤢

What happened to good sense of humour? Why are today's directors failing at it so badly?😲

Stories on middle class hardcore friendships. Career oriented protagonists/Job hunting. Heroes determined to get rid of certain social evils.

Is that you, kaapi?

@bold: Oh yes! But we at least have a Swades, RDB n Delhi6 attempted in that direction once in a while.

We don't have Drama or theatre enthusiasts either... No stage pe naataks n stuff either anymore.

Biopics, grandeurs, modern drama, masala and remakes are the trending genres in BW as of now.
