English speakers make up 10% of Indian population. That's 140 million English speakers. That mean that the 1.2 billion Indians that dont speak English don't consume American media.

if you think there's nothing in common then that's okay but don't speak on the behalf of a billion people.

Alright that's a fair point. Also I am not saying there is nothing in common, So much as there is alot working against an Indo-Western alliance.

That's rather presumptuous of you. Maybe they consume with subtitles. I watched Squid Games and Parasite and I don't speak Korean.

I'll put it like this - in India there is no lack of entertainement industry or cultural expression, Unlike most countries most Indians consume Indian Movies and TV shows. The box office hits of most of India are always Indian movies with the only exception ever being Avatar and Endgame. Fun fact - India produces 2000 movies a year, That's more than the rest of the world combined.

It’s not quantity it’s quality ld rather watch one movie I enjoy rather than 100 movies I don’t.

Yes dubbing does occur, Not many see dubs though. There is tough competition for Cinema culture in India unless you are some Big movie by hollywood standards you are barely going to be noticed in India.
