• Over the last few years increasingly large size of the

overseas markets has made it extremely significant for Bollywood filmmakers • The higher ticket prices, the growing NRI audience and the international audience slowly taking interest in Hindi films • It ensured that the $20 million threshold (equivalent to the 100 crore club in India) has been surpassed by films like My Name Is Khan and 3 Idiots • Karan Johar once famously said “We do not see NRI’s as people who are separate from Indians. They are all Indians and in fact the NRI’s are more Indian at heart than any of us in India!”

Challenges
• Small and fragmented market

• Competitor (Hollywood)
• Domestic and diaspora markets are too large for Indian

cinema to adapt themselves to Western tastes • Bollywood films are too long • Scripts are too loose and have too much excess fat

Conclusion
• There is a huge Indian diaspora in countries like the uk,

Canada, the Middle East, South Africa which all represent a big market for Indian films • Brand India is gradually gaining share in the global market • Bollywood’s share in the global movie market is still relatively insignificant • The movie industry therefore needs to put in a lot of effort and money
