Hehe... is the internet getting weirder?

If we are talking Bollywood then Chandi Chowk to China is pretty much the awesomest thing I have ever seen from that neck of the woods. Of course, I've seen very little as they are sort of hard to come by round here.

Seconded.

I'm still going for Little Big Man.



You guys ready to let the dogs out?
Of more recent flicks:

Amen! Satyajit Ray movies are brilliant and I loved Lagaan, it also managed to cross overseas very well, a lot of my "non-Indian" friends appreciated it and watched it which is very rare for Bollywood movies.

I'm Indian but can't speak Hindi so I'm very much into my English films. From the few Indian films I've seen the ones I've listed below are classics and I'd recommend them to everyone, Indian or not

Satya:


Mother India:


Sholay:


Salaam Bombay!:


Hey Ram:


Rang De Basanti:

Also I'm almost certain the thread started wanted East Indian films rather than Native American films considering his username references this famous Indian (East) gentleman:

He was banned so I say we just post native American Indian movies.
