2023 was a remarkable year for Indian films as it brought the audience back to the theatres but apart from the box office business, many Indian films were appreciated across the country making it seem like the language barrier was now a thing of the past. Now, Letterboxd has released a cinematic wrap-up of 2023 called ‘Year in review’, compiling statistics from millions of users and here too, many Indian films have made a mark alongside popular international titles like Oppenheimer and Barbie.
In the highest rated drama films, Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s 12th Fail made its mark. The film was in the same list as Oppenheimer, Monster, Killers of the Flower Moon, Anatomy of a Fall, Perfect Days, The Iron Claw, Riceboy Sleeps, The Zone of Interest, and Society of the Snow. 12th Fail was the only Indian film on the list.
