Incapacity, in particular, has served as a supply of comedian reduction in Bollywood films. Guzaarish, Barfi, My Title Is Khan, Margarita With A Straw, are the few names that have dealt with the area with sensitivity and quite realistically.
Listed below are about a Bollywood films that have made an strive at humour by relying on callous depictions of the in every other case-abled.
The Golmaal Sequence
Absolute self assurance, Golmaal is the top seemingly comedian blockbuster and it managed to carry out an complete bunch of crores on the box place of business.
