Apart from all those mentioned above, movies where the heroine is a the main protagonist. Even the most brilliant of stories, acting and screenplays fail to make these movies successful.

Dont think so..Of late, The dirty picture, EV, Kahaani, Fashion were successful films!!
I think Bwood also does not make good action films compared to Hwood besides besides sci fi, horror and animation!!

Fast paced thrillers (lacking entertainent quotient) bombs at BO but they are the best which bollywood has produced

Sci-fi type films haven't worked. Never watched any horror movies because I don't think they'd come out as natural as Hollywood ones IMO.

Bollywood tries just four genres- Romance, Comedy, Drama, Action. One sub genre of Romance and Comedy is Romantic Comedy. Action is also sprinkled with romance and machoism. No surprise elements there. All other genres are fail.

Animation! Both commercially and quality wise, BW fails in this department!



And its all the more shocking because the Indian animation companies actually work for International studios and contribute in the making of several Hollywood animated movies.

Sci fi, horror, animation, action movies. They all lack a punch.

Also hardly tries to make adaptations from the local book writer stories.

Lately even comedies. 😕



Horror and fantasy are a given. But yes, a lot of the comedies make me cringe instead of laugh. I can't believe how they make so much money.

Someone mentioned animation. I'd have to disagree with that. The problem is that people don't watch animation enough in India. Parents would rather take their kids to a "massy" commercial movie instead.

Dehli Safari was great!
