No

Do we need another movie taking place in South Asia that centers a white person?

[dr_bong]

Aren’t most movies made in South Asia center around south Asian people? Hindi cinema has overtaken the U.S. film industry to become the largest centre for film production in the world…
This movie is in fact an anomaly in the massive wave of movies that get released yearly… people here are unhinged…

[peddlestools]

And how many of those Bollywood movies get wide releases in the US?

Wasn't Charlie Hunnam in the remake of Papillon, which is very similar to Shantaram in that it's a fictional non-fiction about criminal men in prison who escape and find a new life in a foreign country?

[therearewords]

Yes.

Bombay was the official name until the 1990s.
