1. The Breathtaking Entitlement of Bollywood
Bollywood is falling. And there is no doubt about it. The signs are many and the frustration is brewing. Its directors and actors are forced to reveal the breathtaking degree of their sense of entitlement.

2. When a poorly made non-descript movie with non-descript actors like Karthikeya 2 but with a very solid Hindu orientation destroys giants like #LaalSinghChadha and #Rakshabandhan then know that something fundamental has changed.
3. Bollywood was always an incongruity. It was a ‘Hindi’ film industry in a Marathi state with no connect to either Maharashtra or to the 55 crore Hindi belt in north. It was by and for an extremely rare Mumbai uber-upper class who flew into their pent houses in helicopters.
4. Before India’s independence Lahore used to be a great center for cinema artists. After Pakistan was created a lot of their artists fled to India for fear of persecution, but in India they did exactly what they were fleeing for: Islamization of Bollywood.
5. After that the takeover by underworld resulted in an increasingly sterile industry which didn’t reflect any true society or any problems of Indians. It had absolutely no connect to the audience.
6. There was an element of laziness deeply embedded in Bollywood. Stories of UP, Bihar were horrible caricatures with one or two ethnic words thrown in to show affinity. Directors and actors would never get out of their studios to study their subjects.
7. The only thing they diligently followed was anti-Hinduism as that is what they were paid for by the Islamic and Christian lobbies. Hindus were shown in every bad color while Muslims and Christians were benefactors without fail.
8. Hindus lapped it up for they had been benumbed to insults to their society, religion and culture. But in the last few years the consciousness had been rising with social media. And with the Nupur Sharma incident they really got angry and conscious.
9. First came the rejection of small players, and then even the mightiest of them like #AamirKhan. And that has enraged the small players who have started saying that this cannot go answered and an answer will come from the industry to the audience. Really?
10. What answer will the actors give? Is that a physical threat? How exactly will the answer sound & work? It shows their level of disconnect from reality. They think it is their birth right to make absolutely horrible content and then get millions to lead their degenerate lives.
11. And when the Hindus are finally awakened to this and have withdrawn their patronage, the uber privileged class is outraged and cannot think what to do.
What they need to do is to end their anti-Hinduism, divorce their anti-Hindu m asters and make classy content.

12. But that will take another generation and meanwhile, regional film industries making good content will soar through, led by the likes of Rajamouli. For the past decade south Indian movies had taken over the television watching. Now the cinemas are taken.
13. And this is how it will continue. The current generation of degenerate, lazy, incompetent and anti-Hindu Bollywood needs to die for the next decade for it is that drying up of finances which will end the evil anti-Hindu tradition there and then something good might emerge.
