The rise of digital platforms means viewers get to explore far wider genres and themes, pushing cinema into exciting new directions beyond typical blockbusters.
That’s a fascinating observation! The change is really tied to how audiences and technology have evolved. This article, https://www.uniindia.com/the-evolution-of-bollywood-from-masala-movies-to-ott-driven-storytelling/press-releases/news/3441382.html , captures this shift well. It shows how the rise of streaming platforms has allowed Bollywood creators to experiment beyond traditional formulas. With OTT, there’s less pressure to fit into the "masala movie" mold, so stories now tackle complex themes—family dynamics, social issues, identity—more deeply. This evolution is reshaping Indian cinema, making it more diverse and relevant for modern viewers, while still honoring its roots.
