Anyone else surprised to see united states on the list?

[–] rolling_resistance 5 points 10 months ago

Not really. The largest English-speaking country is in top-50 articles by views on English Wikipedia.

How else would they do wikiracing /s

Interesting that Flower Moon is on the list. Hopefully this means:

  • The film is more successful than initially thought.
  • People are interested in learning more about the history behind the story.

Anyone see Jawan? I think I'll give it a shot this weekend. I'm watching Bajirao Mastani right now and digging it. I think 2024 might be the year of Bollywood for me.

I'm from India here and would recommend against Jawan. It did huge numbers because of SRK, but content wise it's really shallow. Its got some good visuals, but mostly it hero worship.

If you do want to get into good bollywood movies, I would recommend the following:

Good Story: 3 Idiots

Romance: Jab we met

Thriller: Andhadhun,

Horror: Tummbad

Violent: Gangs of Wasseypur part 1 and 2

Classic: Sholay
