I am indian and i have not even heard of any of the indian classics or etc. so i suggest you dont buy the pass.
But if it really cheap and you have some time on your hand, might as well buy it and go. I remember i went to a korean film festival once, films were really bad but atleast i can say i have seen few korean films.
