The content of Bollywood movies has taken a toll over a few years. With more and more remakes and sequels, originality goes missing. No doubt, Bollywood has given some big hits but that is just because of the vivid fan following of the stars and nothing else.
Big names are equal to big audiences nowadays, irrespective of the story, direction. And this is having its effect on the content produced overall in India when compared to other cinemas. Has everyone run out of ideas for scripts? And the sad part is that most of the young talent is now a part of this. It is really disappointing to see talent getting wasted away like this. We took a look at the upcoming films and here are some remakes and sequels that will be coming out in 2019-2020.
1. Housefull 4
