Cinema of India: My First Impression | Video Essay

it's a shame that you forget to mention Mollywood. If u need "masala" films then these are okay, if you really want good films come to malayalam films

Honestly, Kollywood industry is underrated. I agree about they produce some kind of action commercial, but they also produce variety of genre and storylines with decent budgets.
(many great tamil films went unnoticed)
Especially director's like selvaraghavan, balu mahendra, thiagaraja kumaraja, vetrimaaran, mysskin, karthik subbaraj, maari selvaraj,raam, maniratnam, balachandar are highly recommend.

You should watch some malayalam movies (Mollywood). In my opinion it has everything the other industries have but more grounded and realistic

3 idiots is my all time favourite movie ❤ i am watching on loop ➿

You should've watched Vadachennai

You should watch Malayalam Movies 🙌🏻❤️

Excellent video. But don’t forget the action and story magic of the pre 90s Bollywood films.

Watch bengali cenima

Dear Admin . If you see this comment. You should watch Mahraja , it is Kollywood i guess

Bro Mollywood is one of the best industries here. Heartfelt, compelling stories made on shoestring budgets. Some good films (classi & contemporary) include:
* Kireedam (1989)
* Spatikam (1994)
* Manichitrathazhu (Try saying that 3 times fast lol) (1993)
* Ramji Rao Speaking (1989)
* Chitram (1989)
* New Delhi (1987)
* Mathilukal (1990)
* Vidheyan (1994)
Now, onto contemporary:
* Kumbalangi Nights (2019)
* Pathemari (2015)
* Aadujeevitham (2024)
* Bheesma Parvam (2022)
* Bramayugam (For Hitchcock fans especially) (2024)
* Jalikattu (2019)
* Drishyam (2013)

Sad to, not see Malayalam cinema, as part of this video.

India is Very big country
Bollywood is a small word
To cover all
Better to say indian cinema

Cringe

As a cinema fanatic, I must say this video is absolutely the best in every aspect! Well researched, looks beyond the surface, the pros and the cons, excellent start with some of the best movies and understood our cinema so well, without any prejudices, even over the top and mass movies. Definitely a must watch video for anyone looking to start Indian Cinema.

Super 30. its ggoood

You say bollywood has rooted movies compared to Telugu, please watch rohit shetty

Try anniyan

You missed Malayalam movies

You haven't explored indian art or parallel cinema. For example: Ardhasatya, Aakrosh by Govind Nihalani, Mohan Joshi Hazir ho, Khandhar, Ankur, Arth, Mandi, Manthan, and many more, adding to entire cinema of Satyajeet Ray.

nothing can beat 3 idiots

You should watch some marathi movies.

i see their is no mention of mollywood

I would say mollywood right now is the best in india

Super Deluxe is a good move but Kollywood got way way better movies than that, like Asuran, Aadukalam, Viduthalai, Visaranai, Pariyerum Perumal, Karnan, Anbe Sivam, Jigirthanda, Ka Ka Ka Po and many more

Did this guy just call Sholay a romantic movie?? 😂

try malayalam cinema too

man i wish he watched mollywood

Super Deluxe Forever!

Amazing video! Jersey, Lagaan, and Soorarai Pottru are among my favorite movies of all time

Bro has understood Indian Cinema better than most Indians ❤💯

an underrated tamil cinema film you should watch is kaka muttai (crow's egg), very simple movie but executed near perfectly

few more Indian reccos:

Haider (an adaptation of Hamlet)
Barfi
Kumbalangi Nights
Nayattu
Pather Panchali
Dil Chahta Hai
Udaan
Drishyam

Taare Zameen Par how could you forget this masterpeace

Another historical movie i would recommend is "Bajirao mastani" i remember enjoying it

My best bollywood movies you must watch before you die


Movies - 3 idiots , lagaan, bajrangi bhaijaan, koi mil gya , shrapit, taarezameen par , hera pheri , happy new year , dhoni , chichore , omg , swadesh, shubh mangal zyada saavdhan, aandhadoon, hawaizaada , ye jawani hai diwaani , ae dill hai mushkil , zindagi na milegi dobara .

I don't know if you'll see the comment but I suggest you watch 'MARGARITA WITH A STRAW' since you liked 'SUPER DELUXE' . It's a good movie ,it helped me discover a new perception of few things that society thinks is taboo.

Don't miss out on Malayalam movies, not as glamourous as the other industries in India, but there are some great movies.

try malayalam movies and come back

"Prem Ratan dhan payo" can mean "Finding love, treasure and money". Pretty classic for a movie title lol.

A chinese dude watching Indian movies from Canada. Truly mister world wide.

Fun fact: You can pause super deluxe randomly and it will be beautiful like a painting.

The movies that comes from west bengal are also called tollywood. Recent Bengali movies are not that good but movies in 1980 to 2007 are so good. The reason is because of Satyajit ray he is a very famous director known around the world. Some of his greatest movies are from the feluda series which are 2 detective movies called 'sonar kella' and 'joy baba felunath' he also directed 'Pather Panchali' 'apur songshar' and many more classic.

check out malayalam movies too

Man you skipped the best industry of Indian cinema "Mollywood"

Well Explained 🩵

As an Indian I can Describe 99% Indian Cinema in One word:

Shit.

😂😂😂

Endian cinema is nothing but herogasm, softcore pornography, diarrhea causing masala. Physics defying stunts. They just bark at different languages which seems like barbaric echoes. Toilet cleaners should not have the privilege of having a cinema industry in the first place.

Yk what we're missing? Bengali and north eastern cinema!!! Especially bengali!!! Like please Satyajit Ray? We NEED that Maestro to be mentioned!!.

This is a brilliant video! Loved the selection of sequences you've chosen in the edit. Cinema transcends boundaries and language. Thank you!
