5 Hollywood LGBTQ Films That We’d Love To See Remade In Bollywood - MissMalini

While the audience may doubt the authenticity of a movie when you say remake,
Bollywood has proven time and again that this tag is nothing to be afraid of.
There have been instances were remakes of Hollywood movies have done wonders at
the box office for us. Ranging from taking a seed of inspiration to keeping it
completely the same but changing it to the taste of our audience, Bollywood is
close to perfecting this art. Chachi 420, Sarkar and Baazigar are just some
shining examples of this.

5 Problematic Ways In Which The LGBTQ Community Is Represented In Bollywood And Here’s Why It Needs To Change - MissMalini

The past few years have been quite amazing for Bollywood and its audience in
terms of all the pathbreaking films that it has made. From Aligarh to Kapoor and
Sons, even the LGBTQ representation has been slightly better and most definitely
less of a caricature than what it used to be. But it still remains far from
depicting a realistic picture of the LGBTQ community. Cinema has the power to
inspire and more often than not it turns out to be the prime source of
information for a lot of people. Kee
