Arabians like Indian movies only because of the fights , songs and dances and glamor. None takes Indian cinema seriously. It is only meant to entertain them. If you ask me I prefer watching a good entertaining movie over a serious one.😳 But I hate those hyped movies. I enjoy less known ones. I enjoyed watching Bangra Bali for Sunny Kaushal because of the dances more than Street Dancer or ABCD2. The problem with the big projects is that they are lackluster 😵
You are lucky to grow up watching good cinema. I too grew up watching Egyptian cinema which was based on good novels .
I also like to watch light hearted movies over serious ones but cannot watch movies like bhool bhulaiya2 or pushka that questions your basic IQ level. Bhool bhulaiya 1 was a remake of a classic Malayalam movie and that's why it was good😆. Stree is a light hearted good movie. It has good storyline, enough glamour, good acting, good story and a strong message. Badai ho, mimi, bareli ki barfi, ludo etc were also similar. I like that kind of movies. They don't have larger than life setting but still has the entertainment quotient.
Most of the classic Bollywood comedy movies like Hera pheri, hungama, hulchal, bhool bhulaiya are remakes of Malayalam movies.
