Bollywood six-month report card: Film industry’s in a free-fall, but where’s the bottom?

Bollywood  Hindi film industry is going through a phase where quality movies are not being made. Too much nepotism. New faces are needed.

The Khans and Kapoors have become old, washed up  and unfortunately lost a lot of credibility.

I miss the oldies …

too many wannabes in bollywood!!

This has been the worst year for Bollywood. Too much nepotism.

Jeetendra was a Kapoor, another nepo kid who failed at the box offices.

Jeetendra was good especially late 70's but he had competition from AB and Rajesh K who were bigger in those days

Jeetendra was born as Ravi Kapoor; 07 April 1942.  Famous for his dancing, he was called "Jumping Jack".  He and Rajesh K attended school together.

A sexual abuse complaint has been filed against veteran Bollywood actor Jeetendra by his cousin in Himachal Pradesh.

The alleged abuse took place when the victim, his cousin, was just 18 and Jeetendra was around 28, ten years older.

It took years for the victim to muster courage and speak out, after feminist awareness campaigns such as #MeToo, which have created an atmosphere of hope for millions of victims who remain quiet despite facing sexual abuse at the hands of their own families and relatives that they trust the most.

The victim decided to file a police complaint after the demise of her parents, who would have been heartbroken, had they got to know about the sexual abuse by Jeetendra, their nephew, she said.

She had just turned an adult, when Jeetendra asked her father for permission to take her to a film shoot, where he allegedly sexually abused her.

The victim wants closure for the mental trauma she suffered for years after the alleged abuse.

Considering that Jeetendra, the accused, is rich, powerful and politically well-connected, the victim and her family have requested the media to keep their identity secret, according to the law.
