Great Bollywood Sports movies

by manavkum • Created 11 years ago • Modified 2 years ago
This list will add top 10 great sports and games movies in Bollywood. Importance of sports is relatively very low in India and hence sport movies too. Hence every sports movie made is appreciative in itself, whether it amassed critical audience or not. Numbers here are in any random order and does not suggest level of greatness in the movie. Please leave comments if you think differently and have something in mind which you want me to notice.
