Bollywood movies are not completely banned in Manipur, but there are restrictions on their screening in some parts of the state. This is due to the historical and political context of the region, which has a long-standing struggle for self-determination and independence.

Manipur is a state in northeastern India, bordering Myanmar, with a predominantly Meitei population. The state has been plagued by insurgency and violence for several decades, with several armed groups demanding independence from India. The state government and security forces have been accused of human rights violations, including extrajudicial killings, torture, and rape.

In this context, there has been a longstanding demand for greater control over cultural and media representations in Manipur, including restrictions on the screening of Hindi films, which are seen as promoting mainstream Indian culture and values. Some groups in Manipur have argued that Bollywood films often portray the region and its people in a negative light, perpetuating stereotypes and reinforcing a colonial mindset.

As a result, some cinemas in Manipur have chosen not to screen Bollywood films, or to only screen them after obtaining permission from local authorities. However, this is not a blanket ban on all Hindi films, and many Bollywood movies continue to be popular in Manipur, especially among younger generations who consume media online.
