Pakistani Bollywood fans take note, Bollywood backs article 370 removal

. . .
We watch every type of films but agar language samjh aye to Indian films are in Urdu and everyone in Pakistan can understand Urdu that's why Indians films are popular and topics of most the films are personal lives of people not politics or religion


Dancing and music is not Haram or is not considered Haram by Pakistanis

We watch old Bollywood films from 90s and early 2000 new bollywood films are bakwas just like Pakistani films

Bollywood/indian/hindi movie industry has gone through a tremendous change in my life time. I used to watch their movies telecast on their national TV Doordarshan since 1986 when we bought our first black and white TV, we get strong signals of indian national TV due to our proximity to Jammu area where they had a "booster" for Doordarshan. You know in 80s they used to telecast a hindi movie every Sunday at 5 O'clock in the afternoon, they were mostly 60s, 70s or sometime early movies of 80s. The storylines were very traditional, family based, in fact I would say somehow socialist views were spread through those movies, probably because india was ruled single handedly by congress part of india which had "socialist leanings" and it was reflected in their movies also because I believe most of the producers/directors from that era were also supporters of congress or socialist types. The story line were pretty fixed particularly in 80s indian hindi movies, the hero was always poor and heroine was the daughter of a rich "seth" and then hero would somehow marry the daughter of that rich seth against his will and all kinds of fights and melodrama about this kind of story lines. Another type of indian hindi movies used to have a hero who was social justice warrior and was often a policeman or a government employee and would be fighting against smugglers and other such kind of evil people.
Then came 90s and the storylines of the movies changed drastically, the traditional socialist family oriented storylines were renounced and movies were centred around a young college boy who falls in love again with daughter of a rich seth who was his class fellow in the college and then a lot of fights and melodrama around it. Then came 2000s and the indian hindi movies used to be called "bollywood" (a new word for us, it didn't exist until 80s or even 90s) and the story line shifts from the "poor hero" to the "rich hero" often residing in the foreign countries and speaking very anglicized langauge, same with the heroine characters. And now in this decade, Bollywood movies are totally devoid of any kind of rational/story lines and just are propagating whatever is in the fashion in the western world which they seem to be worshipping at the moment, songs are filled with "white background girls" and other kinds of ridiculous thing. I think their movie industry is totally devoid of any connection to their society anymore and is just a sh1tty version of hollywood since last 15 years or so. And our so-called "Lollywood" is behaving these days a crappy sh1tty version of "bollywood" these days.

So these days it is like this

Hollywood ==> Bollywood ==> Lollywood

I think that likeness and dislikeness for the films from different years has something to do with age group I like films from late 90s and early 2000

I also used to like to watch indian movies of 80 and early 90s on VCR because they were totally different than what we used to watch on Doordarshan TV on sundays in 80s, for me the movies from 60s and early 70s used to be "boring" whereas action movies of late 70s and early 80s were quite attractive to watch so much so that we used to watch them on VCR in our village annual mela by paying 2 rupees to enter in some "baithak" where they would play them on "commercial" basis.

But Pakistani Punjabi films from 60s are nice I have watched few but old Pakistani Urdu films are boring

I used to love watching Ali Ejaz and Nanha punjabi comedy movies even by renting them on VCR, but didn't like Sultan Rahi type movies, always found them to be crap though my mamu used to love watching them in cinemas because he is uneducated villager guy though settled in Gujranwala since he was teenager in early 80s, now when I ask him "do you like Shaan punjabi movies", he says "Nai yaar, Rahi Rahi si".

No I didn't watch them, actually black and white pakistani movies were a big no for me. But recently watched Munawwar Zareef's black and white movie "Naukar Wohti da" on youtube and found it quite entertaining. I think I like punjabi movies only with comedy touch, not the hardcore serious ones.
