This study investigates the multifaceted impact of Indian biopic cinema on diverse age groups, exploring how shared historical contexts and formative experiences shape audience perception, interpretation, and engagement with these films. Positioned within the growing prominence of the biopic genre as a vehicle for historical interpretation, cultural transmission, and social commentary, this research posits that age acts as a significant mediating factor influencing how viewers internalize the narratives, themes, and messages conveyed. By analyzing existing literature and outlining key research objectives, this paper highlights the potential of biopics to evoke distinct emotional responses, shape understanding of historical and contemporary figures, motivate youth, influence career choices, and serve as sources of both entertainment and education across different generations. Furthermore, it considers the role of biopics in either reinforcing or disrupting prevailing social orders and their implications for broader historical understanding and reception across diverse communities. Ultimately, this study underscores the need for further research to explore the lasting influence of biopics on audience beliefs and attitudes, recognizing their significance as cultural artifacts that shape societal perspectives.
