It's not blaming her for not watching crappy cinema.
Saif especially goes on about how it's Indian cinema, and Bollywood is a put down (which it is, really--I refuse to call classic films from the 50s and 60s Bollywood, the term was coined later and in a negative way.)
So the least you could do is try to watch Indian films outside your immediate Bollywood circle if those BW films don't cater to you. Contrary to popular belief, India does produce a number of good films which get recognition at Film Festivals. They're just not mainstream Bollywood.
So when they specifically mention Hollywood films (though they say English films), but at the same time moan about how Hindi films or broadly say Indian films don't have all these different scripts...Kareena and Revolutionary Road... it shows how limited their watchings actually are.
I have no issues with watching Hollywood films, but they talk out of the both side of their mouths. Also, a person that's truly knowledgeable about Cinema would have other non-Hollywood films on their list as well. Some of the best films don't come from Hollywood. They are either Independent films or Foreign films.
