i was just thinking y cant audience love both equally .when Sallu does mindless action movies with no story that has item numbers do chaar dhamakedaar dialogs like BG,Ready,Dabaang people enjoy it the movie become superhit .But when the same Sallu does movie with a strong story like Phir Milenge it is thrashed by audience .i personally liked his performance in that movie .

Same goes for Akshay when he does masala movies like Housefull ,RR they become blockbusters but when he does a tasveer even dogs abandon those cinema halls

same goes for SRK ,Ajay in fact all the superstars

y cant Audience appreciate good stories great performance .i would like to clarify i m no where negating the prominence of masala movie .it is loved by all even i enjoy them

so y cant BW churn out movie that has MIXTURE of both intelligence and entertainment .Y is the balance always disproportionate or uneven

i know some say audience go to watch movies to unwind themselves for enthrallment .but can they enjoy Intelligent(i mean movie with a strong story and taut screenplay and good performance ) just as the masala movies

y cant directors like Sajid ,Rohit shetty ,prabhu deva make movies that are intelligent as well masala entertainers

it should be Intelligent+ masala and not Intelligent v/s masala

so do u think BW can ever make movie that has a strong script ,great performance ,entertainment quotient and make the same collection as masala movies

DOES THE FILMMAKERS HAVE TO TAKE THE AUDIENCE ALWAYS FOR GRANTED IN THE NAME OF MASALA MOVIES OR THEY TRY TO TREAD AGAINST THE TIDE DO CERTAIN LOGICAL EXPERIMENTATION BUT KEEPING THE ENTERTAINMENT QUOTIENT HIGH

Real Critics is Audience paying the Ticket Price, not ppl sitting Online claiming it to be Mindless 😛😆

I dont think its about story , its about screen play & editing . If dabang or RR had lousy screenplay & erratic editing it would have flopped
just masala cant save a movie . Proof - so many masala movies getting canned

It's because the Indian filmgoers are a bunch of mindless zombies, to enjoy intelligent masala movies, you need a brain first of all... why do you think Sallu's "ATBB" all flop in the American market? 😆

Sure, 3 Idiots was a good example, so far, no-one has been able to beat it.

There is no such thing as masala movies and intelligent movies...Movie making is a business...its commercial...jo hit ho gayilog unko masala movie kehte hain...otherwise wo art movies hain😆...
Ye humare desh aur iss forum ke intellectuals( read- psuedo intelluctuals ) hain...ye classification unki dee hui hai...movies are supposed to be entertaining...documentaries dekhni hai...toh TV per dekhenge...
Humare forums..per right now there is an onslaught of psuedo-intellectuals and cynics...jinka sirf kaam hi celebrities aur fans ko bash karna hai...chahe wo kissi ke bhi fans ho...arre bhaiya...agar itne bade intellectual ho...to Bollywood section mein kya kar rahe ho...kahin library mein baith kar books padho...😆

Americans are No.1 "Chutiyam Sulphate" who doesn't have Brains to judge Sallu Movies, Plus As Ignorant u will be in whole thread, No Sallu ATBB has ever Flopped in ChutiyaMatic FUDDU AMERICA, why do we have to care about a F-U-C-K-N Country which is itself filled with Zombies. 😆

I think there are some movies which are both masala and intelligent. Rang De Basanti comes to mind right now. If I think of others, I'll add them here. Ek Tha Tiger may be one of those, though one never knows.
Its just that some recent movies, especially those who are remakes of a certain specific kind of South Indian film, have been over the top crass, and it begins to seem as if that is all that Bollywood produces. But on the whole, more interesting movies, across big and small budgets, are being made all the time.

Because common man pay 200 rs(1000rs for small family) for entertainment, which masala movies provides very well.
On the other hand Intelligent movies mostly have dark matters which people have already in their real life. People have enough tension in their life ( Petrol price, food price, project dead line, family prob, presser at work etc..) so at weekend when they wants to relax i guess they choose masala movie which provide entertainment and they don't have to apply their mind like intelligent movie and can enjoy with their family(including kids and wife ) .
