South actors don't want to work in BW..Many of them have given statements like this..They have worked hard and made a place for themselves in their respective industries..Audience loves them. Leaving all opportunities there and giving months or years to do bw movies doesn't seem a feasible option to them. They would rather do bilinguals or multilinguals like Bahubali or Sahoo

Bollywood is definitely dominated by Punjabis though. And almost all are from upper class. Is there any Bollywood lead actor in history of Bollywood who is from lower caste? I guess Mithun is one.

Mithun is probably Brahmin or kshatriya, so not really a low caste person.

Bollywood na north hai na south, Beech wala hai. North ka punjabi industry ho gaya hai literally. South ka south industry. Jisko dono nhi digest hota woh bollywood dekh ke khush ho jata hai. lool

I have seen Religion being discussed in Bollywood, but for the very first time " caste" is being discussed. It's kind of disappointing to see how 'caste' is relevant. How is caste even related/connected to Bollywood? Does it change an actor/actress's acting capabilities?

North me to Punjab bhi hai na..unki apni alag industry hai..

Aur agar Maharashtra, Gujarat ko bhi north me count karo to unki bhi alag industry hai

isn't Gujarat , Maharashtra in the west though?

Caste shouldn't be connected to Bollywood but if only one one caste is in the industry then it is relevant.
