10 Bollywood Movies which prove Content is King

Good content and good cast are two poles apart things. And, when it comes to presenting something out of the box, the first thing that comes in our mind is good content, good star cast and a good story line. Bollywood movies have seen a gradual shift to ideology of Content is King. And this is a very welcome change. We have compiled a list of IMdB top rated Bollywood movies.

Actors who chose Content over Brands

There are only a few actors who dare to walk the road not chosen. These actors follow the footsteps of the legendary actors. Ayushmaan Khurana tops the list for unconventional but rich content followed by Rajkumar Rao and Vicky Kaushal. 

For quite some time, Ayushmaan Khurana is all about offbeat content. He is in all the mood to entertain us with his new looks and some unique content. A teaser of “Bala” has been released on YouTube in which Ayushmaan Khurana is seen in a very unusual look. And we are loving every bit of it. 

The teaser perfectly oscillates between two classic songs and describes his situation. First, he seems happy and in search of love. But, the disturbance of wind made him bald and a sad song started playing in the background.
