Bollywood Page 1 - The biggest and the best film industry in the world Back to Startpage

The Biggest and maybe the best filmindustry in the world with the most gorgeous actresses and the greatest lovers.
Action, drama, comedy, romance and thriller .... and sometimes in the same film as in the india unique Masala genre.
But a Volcano of Bollywood New Wave directors has erupted and the Bombay/Mumbai film industry has taken a
new and exciting path with a maverick director as Anurag Kashyap at the front.
I will mention some Mainstream films here with their often spectacular dance numbers, but as an indiefilm lover i will
mostly mention the much more interesting Bollywood New Wave movies that skips the dance numbers and abandon
the masala ham-acting style for actor guidance and motivation resulting in truth and rawness in performance.
Indian film is more than Bollywood hindifilm as you got the Tamil filmindustry in the south, the Telugu in Hyderabad,
the Malayalam and the proud Kolkata based artmovie Bengali film. Often a Hindi Hit is based on a regional version.

Please note: That that the indian film companies has finished releasing films on a physical media as DVD or Blu-ray
and that streaming has killed these beautiful media.
The great Kolkata based company Induna kicked the bucket in
march 2023 and i have no retailers to buy from anymore, so that explains the absence of new films here since 2018

Ett obskyrt och udda men underhållande drama.

Urmila Matondkar

Klicka på bildlänken för en större bild
på fina Urmila


Bland filmaktriser var Urmila Matondkar en av mina absoluta favoriter.
1995-2005 utvecklades hon till en skicklig aktris med stor charm. Född
1973 i Goa, barnskådis och slog igenom 95 i Rangeela av Ram Gopal Varma.
Hon är med sitt utspel lika bra i thrillers som draman, och funkar också i
komedier. Urmila är mycket respekterad även som en skicklig dansös och
kan ibland ses gästspela som detta, t ex i China Gate och Company

 

Great but maybe a bit high-strung artmovie
drama where Anupam Kher plays an alzheimer
struck man who thinks he's murdered Gandhi
in 1948. Melodrama and with lovely Urmila
