Why does India always select films which wont have much appeal outside indian audience? Bad choice again!

This pretty much conclusively establishes Aloo as the queen of Bollywood.

I think it has great appeal WW, it did well at the overseas market and was also widely appreciated at Berlinale 2019 film festival.


I think it was the best among the choices we had.

Poverty and slums can be sold to international viewers.

Are u serious, the movie itself was a copy of a western movie. or say "inspired".

There were so many regional options there?.

This is what it has come down to, even article 15 would have been a better option.

disappointed

No way..this film doesnt even have 1% chance in front of parasite or pain & glory. It's a waste of money or time if at all they are gonna promote it.
