I presume you mean "very few of them are known outside India". What are the most prestigious awards for Indian films? Shouldn't they count as major awards as well?

"One-size-fits-all" notability criteria are impossible to set. We need topic-specific notability guidelines that could determine notability, or lack thereof, in at least 90% of cases (exceptions will always exist). Moreover, notability criteria should not be systemically biased. For example, the notability criteria for films states that a film which wins
a
"major award" is notable. In a footnote, the Academy Awards and Cannes
are
listed as examples of "major awards". However, what about Chinese films?
Shouldn't the Golden Horse Awards be considered "major"?
India is the country which produces the most films, but very few of them are known.
