Entertainment is the spice of life. Not a single person can survive in this world without the touch of this spice.
This year has been very crucial from the point of view of the Indian Film Industry. The year 2019, was the year where all normals became dreams for us to live. 2020 was all focused to bring back normalcy through a different but not a new medium, the OTTs.
As the year ended, everyone was hoping to witness the re-rise of theatre culture with the release of movies like ’83’ in the theatres, but this too has been scrapped as the country is witnessing a sharp rise in the cases of Coronavirus and Omicron Variant.
Words cannot express how this year has been, the country has suffered through various challenges from the second wave of covid to winning the highest numbers of medals at the Olympics. The year has been an attempt to balance life after a turbulent lockdown.
The major movies that were released this year are; Jai Bhim, Shershah, Radhe, Bell Bottom, Bhuj: The Pride of India, Meenakshi Sunadareshwar, Haseen Dilruba, and many more. This year the Bollywood served audiences through OTT platforms.
The year 2022 has so much to offer viewers, however, the medium of service will depend on the Covid situation. Bollywood is all set to launch its big banner projects and new names this year. So, Bollywood lovers are requested to pay attention to the movies that are all set to release this coming year.
