I just asked as the Hindi music industry has not had a blockbuster hit recently. In fact, not many hindi music videos on youtube have crossed 100 million views recently. So is the hindi music industry dying? Are people switching over to English, KPOP etc. instead? Do you think we'll get to a point where they'll be no more/less songs in BW movies?

Honestly speaking Hindi music industry was never that great to begin with. They mostly thrive on already sung or hit songs.

Its like the 1980s era when all movies and songs were dud after superhit 1960s and 70s.

It was again revived in the 90s.

You cannot sing the songs right now. No recall value. NA DA. Zero.

Music is horrendous and boring.

Its also pretty fast. Good for dancers bad for the rest. Plus most songs are in punjabi. Cannot understand.

First decade of the millennium was fabulous when it came to music so second one had to be a dud. Third decade will be good again. That is if t-series hegemony ends before that. They are killing the industry and good voices.

Even some of the songs back in 90s which were supposed to be copied sounded lot better than the crap remixes they make these days. I am not sure if Bolly music is dying but T-series monopoly needs to go.

In terms of quality and longevity the Hindi music industry is in the ICU since years.
