Nice to know that you have a good script .
But not to discourage you , you have chosen a pretty difficult profession.
You need to work pretty hard for it friend.
Entering Bollywood / Other film industries are near to impossible for a normal human being who does not have any reference.
You need plenty of luck to enter Bollywood.
The best you can do it to contact someone who is close to some Bollywood producer.

They can help you out to present your story/ script to producers.
If you are really talented enough , you will definitely get chance to work for Bollywood.
Other option for you is that go to Mumbai and contact some Bollywood Producers / Directors.

did you registered it from the film writer associations, if not, then nobody take interest in your story what ever it may be.

I don't mean to be discouraging but the chances of what you consider a good script to actually be a good script are slim. And if it is good, you still have to work hard on selling it. You have to first register it with the writers' association before you peddle it around. After registration, you have to try to meet producers / directors / actors. Believe me, that can be quite tough.

A small list of support / grant programs which are specifically for Indians or are open to Indians.
These are programs I am excited about and hope to work with myself, sometime in the future. If you have any experience with any of these, do share it! Do you know of any more? You may post a link to the official website of the program in the comments.
1. Maisha Film Lab: A lab for screenwriters and emerging directors, promoted by Mira Nair and others. “There is no fee for attending the MAISHA Labs. The program covers travel, accommodation and all other relevant lab costs.”

MAISHA aims to preserve, cultivate and unleash local voices from these regions, and to become one of the first targeted programs to offer structured and accessible resources to these emerging filmmakers. MAISHA is motivated by the belief that a film which explores the truths and idiosyncrasies of the specifically local often has the power to cross over and become significantly universal.

well it is very difficult for any normal person to find any financier, see it is not the thing that only the people who do it or their related people and their own children are the people who make a good script it is not true, the truth is that there are many people out there like u in the whole world u have many good scripts and movie ideas if any film will be make on it is a super hit movie, but for this what anybody can do, if u have no contacts or u have not enough money for making the film, so nobody help u for this.
but their is a good news for u if ur movie is related arts or any documentary type or any type of any social issue or anything which related to society or country, see here i am not talking about films like made in the bollywood they are not that type of movie which have the script to eligible for good awards.
i am giving here about Funds / support for filmmakers in India.

2. The Global Film Initiative: “The Initiative has developed four complementary programs to promote both the production of authentic and accessible stories created in the developing world and their distribution throughout the schools and leading cultural institutions of the United States.”

The Global Film Initiative was created to promote cross-cultural understanding through the medium of cinema. Although American film continues to thrive in the global marketplace, developing world filmmaking has suffered from shifting economic conditions in film financing and distribution. As a result, audiences in the United States have been denied the rich cultural lessons these films have to offer.

3. Alter Cine: “The grant is aimed at young video and filmmakers born and living in Africa, Asia or Latin America who want to direct a film in the language of their choice that respects the aims of the Foundation.”

The Alter-Cine Foundation was created in the memory of Canadian filmmaker, Yvan Patry, who passed away on October 14, 1999. Patry was a co-founder of the production company Alter Cine and directed numerous documentaries and current affairs programs in Africa, Latin America and Asia: “… documentaries should go against the tide,” he said, “they should bear witness and spur us to action.” Patry’s documentaries have contributed to tearing down walls of silence, denouncing injustice and barbarism, and giving voice to victims of horror.

4. Independent Television Service: “Programs must be in production or post-production. Applicants must submit a sample reel of their work-in-progress for consideration. For International Call 2006, only single documentary projects (hours) will be considered. American television length for hour programs range from 42:00 to 56:40 minutes.”

We invite international producers to create programs for U.S. television audiences. We are looking for extraordinary programs that both pull viewers in and further Americans understanding of international perspectives and wo
