Bollywood movies are all about emotional manipulation... giving inspiration.. they are heavy.. preachy at times.. black and white.. Which movies do you think are non-manipulative.. are straighforward..don't try to make a certain point.. but leave it to the viewer to decide... and take away whatever they wanna take from that movie.

Stanley ka dabba : subtle and interesting take in regards to child labor and how to appreciate the kids..

Chameli: "Baas pyaar ho na chahiye." Subtle points in regards to relationship and how nothing is wrong if there is love between two people (ie. gay, lesbian, bi and straights)..

Gandhi My Father was non-manipulative.
Otherwise silly comedies like Housefull, Ready, Golmal etc are non-manipulative.
