1 Week, 2 Huge Disasters: Who’s Responsible?

Bollywood is digging its own grave and the frustration is palpable.

After watching three new Hindi films in 24 hours, the exhaustion and disappointment is relatable and alarming – a clear sign of how far Bollywood has strayed from its golden days.

Take Kesari Veer as an example. Despite being based on a powerful historical story, the film is let down by poor production values, wooden performances and terrible CGI.

Suraj Pancholi as Hamir Gohil fails to bring any emotion, the story feels hollow and uninspired. Even veterans like Sunil Shetty and Vivek Oberoi do their best but can’t save the film from being mediocre.

The constant interruptions for unnecessary romance and abrupt action scenes only makes things worse and you are disconnected from what should have been an epic story.

Then there’s Kapkapiii, a scene by scene remake of the Malayalam hit Romancham. Instead of offering something new it just copies the original and adds nothing new and waters down the story for Hindi audience.

The main problem is clear – Bollywood’s obsession with remakes and nepotism is pushing the industry into a creative coma.

In the end this visible frustration isn’t for show – it’s a wake up call for Bollywood to stop taking its audience for granted and start respecting the art of cinema again.
