After a really long spell I am once again
blogging about Hindi movies that not just entertain, but also provide some
value for money experience. I've always been passionate about Hindi movies that
have an unconventional plot, something that the audience don't expect. Hindi
film industry or Bollywood as they call it here in India usually sticks to a
conventional plot which is so predictable that you can virtually travel in the
future and know what's coming up next. This is also because producers want to
play safe and want to ensure profit right from the start. A conventional plot,
big stars, foot-tapping music and a wide-scale marketing campaign is all that
you need to be successful in Bollywood.
Honestly, I am tired of all this, but
majority of the Indians still prefer this kind of escapism cinema where
sensible scripts take a backseat or at times are absent. However, the Hindi
film industry scene is changing as many upcoming and gutsy producers that fuel
projects in which they believe. Over past few years, small budget movies are
popping up along with big budget movies and it is surprising to see that these
small budget movies are doing well. Low budget means low financial risk and
these movies sometimes do not have the star power to propel it further, but they
have a strong and fresh script that appeals to certain sections of the society.
The story itself is the hero along with the vision of the director and some
terrific performances by actors that get an opportunity to portray a different
role altogether.
Surprisingly, the year 2015 has been the
year of low budget movies. Packed with fresh scripts and topped with terrific
performances these movies have managed to gained critical acclaim and recover
their production and marketing costs.
