Films, irrespective of the place they were produced, became piece of art and commodity in commerce simultaneously, and the former quality is now gradually taking a back seat, while later one is fast developing in a demand governed market.
It is a universally accepted fact that India is the world's largest producer of films; the number of Indian feature films produced in 2009, in 24 languages is 1,288, with the Hindi language film industry of Mumbai — obnoxiously known as Bollywood — being the largest and the most popular branch of Indian cinema. And these 1,288 feature films including 235 Hindi films, 218 Telugu films, 190 Tamil films, 177 Kannada films, 99 Marathi films, 94 Malayalam films and 84 Bengali films, among others, formed a part of last year’s altogether 2,961 productions on celluloid.
