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”.

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.
