Quite true Ehsan but when did anyone say that Bollywood made better films than hollywood. I only remember somebody saying(was it BombayKid) that it is wrong to take the west as the yardstick.
I am not a Hindi films buff myself.I too find most of the hindi movies made of late terribly nauseating.But if your intention was only to deride Indian movies, I am not falling for it.Because I do feel that even in the midst of all the trash that the Bollywood churns out, there are some real talents there and take it from me the Paki equivalent does not hold a candle to ours.

I agree that the Pakistani films are absolute trash, but than I don't watch them either. I think Nawaz should be asked to watch two Paki films everyday and he will commit suicide in no time. Try watching Pakistani TV dramas and you would soon realise whose candle will blow out. Both in their content and acting talent the Paki dramas leave the Indian films miles behind.
Ehsan.....when have you watched any Indian dramas/plays to make an assessment ? If by Indian dramas you mean the ones churned out by Zee TV and the likes, you're wrong. India has a great theatre culture and the talent in the theatre too is second to none. Out here artists are treated with respect and we don't ridicule our stars.
Bombay Kid could you please read my posting again and point out where I was comparing indian dramas with the Pakistani ones. Get your facts right. My comparison was between Inidan films and Pakistani dramas.
Ummm, are u all forgetting something? 50 some years ago, india and pakistan were one. that;s not that long ago, so i guess(GASP) you are part pakistani and part indian, AHHHHHHHHHHH. Right? by the way for those who didn't get it, that was sarcasm-seriously someone go answer my please read post.
