Another year went and the Hindi film industry threw up more bad than good once again. A middling /mediocre movie like Dabanng still seemed to hit a nerve with the audience proving that masala cinema still rules the roost. Despite this fact, it was the small budget films that created the biggest impact as it gathered a strong niche audience especially among the burgeoning middle class. These movies were superb in my opinion because of the detailing and research that was put into them. The results were not only authentic but at the same time entertaining.
