It’s ridiculous, and I loved it for that. I’ve seen a couple of Indian action movies now. They lean into the crazy action and don’t care that it’s nonsense.
I’ll be damned if I can find it now, and I wouldn’t swear to it being Indian, but I also really enjoyed a movie last year about a prison break, where a kid gets smuggled in to see their dad by the friendly prisoners. We learn about the individual prisoners and what brought them there. I think it was called something like “cell block 3” or “the man in cell 5”.
RRR was pretty fun
The scene where the car flies into the air and the guy takes a sniper shot mid flight cemented it for me.

What others do you recommend?
Baahubali has a palm tree catapult!
Singham is about a super cop.

Check out Bahubali (1 and 2) if you haven’t already. It has some over-the-top action scenes too, I enjoyed both.
