I stopped watching Hindi movies years ago after I kept coming across sexist tropes
But I just watched 12th Fail and it's awesome
In the last year or so, I've watched
An Action Hero
Nazar Andaaz
Dangal (but it was someone else watching it was a watch through review on YouTube, I forgot what those are called)
Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food, Hindi dub (not critically very good but good enough light family flick)
and now 12th Fail
And gosh these are movies. Non sexist, non-romance focused good films exist!
And non Hollywood so that's a plus because I absolutely adore the ambience and detail in films like 12th Fail, Dangal, and Hera Pheri,
Like you're there, in the village, part of the village, with minimal Western influence more or less.
Those old traditional everyday items, skills, and jobs my parents talk about that have never been a part of my life but my parents and grandparents did experience them a little bit at least
I definitely don't want to live in a village, but watching these characters and their families have deep roots in their community or village just feels nice :)
i just told my mom hera pheri 3 is going to be made. she said "athu onnum poyi kannale. malayala-thhinne ingane apamanikkaruthu" aka "don't go and watch all that. don't insult malayalam like this" and so i'm going off to watch ramji rao speaking which i haven't already watched for unknown reasons to find out how much i've insulted malayalam by kinda liking hera pheri
