Description

Bollywood has lost its sparkle - some 20 films that have come out this year have lost money, including movies from big names like Aamir Khan. That's said to be double the pre-pandemic failure rate. And other Indian films, particularly from the south, are coming to the fore. So what will it take to revive Bollywood fever?
