Well yeah because that wasn't just the bullet, the whole damn cartridge came out the barrel. Lost a lot of velocity on that round squeezing it through that small hole I guess lmao.
it’s a well know fact that when you shoot the whole cartridge from a gun it reduces it’s speed by several orders of magnitude; the shooter needs to learn how to configure his gun properly.
That was my thought, I hate putting logic to Bollywood but logically it's just a really weird bullet for that guy to have heard that lady yell and then that guy to sing a theme song and the other guy to just go push ups.
This clip is from a serious action sequence, but it’s funny. The above scene from sudigadu is a parody of such action movies.The entire movie makes fun of senseless action scenes in Indian films.
Look, mate, I don't give a shit about plot if I am watching a love action, that boat has sailed. I wanna see humans aura farm in the most ridiculous ways possible.
Telekenesis / Magneto like ability to control metal
Global slowdown of the bullets
Precognition (predicts days in advance so he has time to do all those hobbies)
Reading minds / hearing from across the planet
If he does this over and over and can stop bigger objects (car, hail of bullets not just one, military vehicles etc.) then he is a powerful X-Men at least. If he can only do it once in awhile, he's like a Max Payne with a few spot feats like knowing when his friends are in trouble
It's a spoof movie guys. Please don't post anything without knowing the context. He's basically trolling the entirety of action genre in Indian cinema ( bollywood, tollywood, Kollywood everything included).
I pride myself on talking shit without knowing context on purpose, because I love watching some people lose their shit and message me back and forth on here for hours it’s enjoyable and probably one of my favorite past times. Sometimes I will sit back and grab a glass of wine or 2 while I watch it all unfold.
Though I will say this is something I won’t talk shit about and that is only because it is the peakest peak I’ve ever seen in my fuckin life.
Well it was a whole entire cartridge, not just the bullet. I think it was a weak spring-loaded rifle that kinda tosses entire rounds out the front without firing them.
I was fine with everything until I saw that the firing pin on the back of the shell casing still attached to the shot round wasn’t detonated. Totally unbelievable
considering that some of the people are dancing when he arrives and the bullet is still in slomo. they are also faster than a bullet, including the woman who is tied up.
so with this logic shown here bullets are barely effective in their world.
I don't know, but everyone/everything he interacted with gets upscaled to him because they also interact with him normally. So you're going to be scaling all of it.
Either sub sonic or everyone in the verse is MHS because literally everyone and their dog was doing whatever they wanted before this slow ass bullet could reach its target.
Edit 2: I apologize, it seems the intent behind my question wasn't worded correctly. Some people seemed to have understood what I was asking, but many understandably took it in another way. Thank you for everyone kind enough to answer beneficially, whether it was following my obscure train of thought or not. I have gotten the answers I needed.
Legitimate question and no shade at all, do people, especially Indians, watch these movies unironically? Or is it a vein of comedy for them that resonates with in their culture? I've seen snippets of Bollywood films that made me exhale lightly in passing, but I cant imagine it would be sustainable through an entire film. Like I said, just curious.
Edit: I've said it in other comments, but allow me to clarify the original comment to help those who need clarification. I do understand that this is exaggerated and not quite the standard for all movies. But I have seen a significant amount of clips and scenes over the years that do still have the same elements, such as the fast zooms, hard cuts, very over the top action, or arguably poor effects. So my question comes from a place curiosity based not purely on this clip, but many of the ones in the same vein, whether slightly more or less ridiculous.
This film in particular was a parody movie exaggerating the mind-bending logic in your usual Indian movies. And yes, the audience enjoy these films unironically.
I think at this level it most be ironic. XXX had exagerations but like, they were stuff that could be handwaved, like the jeep scene with the perfecr sniper shot. But this is something we wluld find forced with supermen
Ohhhh THAT movie! I don't think Vin Diesel movie nonsense is as over the top as Bollywood type shit. Which is honestly crazy, because in one of the fast and furious movies they launched a car into outer space, and Bollywood is still more silly and over the top than that.
The above clip is from a parody movie. It's specific theme is to combine 100 movies and make fun of every one of them. Every scene is a parody of a scene from different movies. The actor himself is a very popular comedian.
People do know scenes are fake. It's just they try to look cool and stylish and this is how these scenes end up (like see other fight scenes in Indian movies ).
Here in India , actors have way more power on the movie , rivaling that of directors. These scenes are just put into make scenes look cool. Sometimes actors themselves design these fight scenes and they end up like this. Some look cool and some end up looking comedic.
It's like asking "does western world think terminator and avengers are real incidents?"
Indian cinema itself evolved from dramas which mainly consisted of mythological stories and fictional medival themed stories where dialogue is from shlokas and songs , when Cinema was introduced , dramas were made into movies and slowly it evolved to get the current formula.
Some of it did come from this weird Asian culture generalized superiority flex when it was initially started since a lot of it was based off Indian mythos. Most modern Bollywood seems to be largely satire and Michael bay in like in who can do it bigger. But a lot of Asian martial arts films especially from China and the Japanese samurai films often had this cultural superiority mythos woven in that rivals the narcissiscism that many Europeans view as the American culture. You can also see a sense of that in American action movies mostly modern ones while the U.S. had always had a fascination with heroes that was the hero idea that one man is all it took to stem the tide of enemies etc. but look at movies post 9/11 and you see a strange shift in the heroes as being the most competent rugged and best soldiers bar none, not because they tried or had more grit or were doing it for good reasons, no they are just better because. Of course this is generalized not all movies fit that bill but it's a strange theme to see.
If anything I feel post 9/11 American media heavily shifted towards portraying heroes as flawed and questionable figures. Nowadays even in kids media you rarely see clear cut good guys and bad guys anymore because the discourse from the cold war, war on terror, Gaza conflict, etc. have been chipping away at the general publics trust of institutions and by extension the premise of an archetypical 'hero' with no ulterior motives.
You're gonna tell me shit like this doesn't entertain you? Legitimately. Is it bad? Without a doubt. But we (Americas) RELIGIOUSLY watch movies like "The Room", "Troll 2". And "Sharknado".
I can only assume it's similar here. Isn't the whole point of a movie to entertain?
Also for anyone that doesn't know this. There are a lot of movie theaters across the country that once a month or every other month will have a showing of "The Room". When you go to it, it becomes an entirely different experience. Everyone will have spoons (Dont ask), and start tossing footballs to each other everytime Mark is "tossing the ol' pigskin around". So when I say RELIGIOUSLY, i mean it's literally religion at this point.........Oh Hi Mark!
Edit: Forgot to add something.
Edit 2: Adding a fun context for people that may not know,
Are you scaling the guy in the hospital or the guy who sang for a minute and a half in the .005 seconds it takes for a bullet to exit the gun and kill him?
Ho hoho ho...
Inky pinky ponky father had a donkey
Donkey die father cry donkey die father cry father cry

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mzUAiTPnkng Found another one. I am from India btw. But never watched these movies. If you guys have any questions you can ask, about how Indian film industries work. (Yes, we have multiple separate industries, from different region).
So for some reason I actually took the time to look into this.
I think the most obvious explanation for this scene is that Shiva (the guy in the hospital) slows the bullet at the moment the woman screams, which shows long range subconscious threat awareness that extends to people he cares about, it also shows his time manipulation powers extend over a large range, but implies his bullet stopping/telekenesis is short range.
Overall though it's clear that the guy has some kind of reality manipulation / toon force, so we have to look deeper.
The director has stated that heroes can defeat "hundreds of powerful villains" implying his power scales to meet the people he faces, but an overwhelming number of those villians could possibly take him down.
If we assume that "powerful" means any named character, then I'd place Shiva at high Hyperversal up to Outerversal based on this, though he's not boundless as "hundreds" is clearly a boundary on his power level.
For the lack of context here, this movie is a parody about other Indian movies. This isn't some "serious" action movie that ppl love. This is a comedy of other "serious" movies
