What works for Indian audience

Punha is about muhallas, about drawing rooms and chutney sandwiches in parties. Extra characters like alka and anuj give that sense of overflowing life. This is like a nukkad or raju ban gaya gentleman or jo jeeta where side characters build the world. Especially for the milleu these characters grow up in.
Sometimes I feel that difference between an indie film and a film film (Bollywood) is how empty the former feels. I feel Indian audience and even kids (animation films) goto theatre to engage with a world and its surpluses rather than just a sharp story. That's what I feel.
