+1 In India, at least some of the blame lies with the film industry. Having had a monopoly for so long, they were lax in saving prints of their movies and making them available on DVD (now streaming platforms). There is no Indian equivalent of the Criterion collection and this is really killing them. The internet and a lot of Gen-Z Indian kids have picked up all the "bollywoodrealism" material (which is easily memable) and ignore the treasure trove of films that India has produced.
