With a few exceptions here and there, they suck balls. Why can't they hire white actors who can ACTUALLY act?

Their body langiage doesn't suit Indian movies. But Tom Alter did so well in Hindi movies.

Yeah though he was playing a caricature and since Lagaan was I think his first film he didn't then have the experience to make him at least two dimensional. Though one dimensional is probably what was wanted.
