What is the main reason behind Bollywood's slow decline?

Bollywood's shambolic state reflects a confluence of factors that have contributed to its downfall. Which is the main factor behind its slow but steady decline?

Bollywood is more controlled by online political Twitter warriors

Trust. Faith. Bollywood/cricket was the Indians' second religion. PR and all have made them lose faith.

All of these reasons combined.

Kader Khan passed on. He was a actor/writer/director extraordinaire in one

Rajiv Rai had one of the most interesting filmographies in 90s. He should make a comeback to directing

Many reasons. Most Bollywood films have lazy writing. People have more options now. More people are exposed to films and shows from other countries not just BW and HW. Bollywood actors are no longer stars even for the awestruck masses because everyone is over exposed through social media, these days. And finally, post pandemic most people can’t be bothered to waste their time at the theater for an average fare. Time is important.
