Bollywood Films That Must Be Seen By Western Audiences

Black Friday (2004)

Black Friday is an action and crime drama that follows the investigations set up after the 1993 serial Bombay bomb blasts. As the film unfolds, audiences witness the stories from different people involved: the police, the victims, the conspirators, and more.

Even though Black Friday premiered at the 2004 Locarno International Film Festival, its nationwide release was delayed until 2007. The Indian Supreme Court had to rule on whether it should be released, which of course it allowed. Today, it is considered one of the best Bollywood films of all time.
