My fiancee loves bollywood films, she’s got a dvd that has four full length films (in pretty decent video quality) on one disc. Considering tv shows usually have at most 4 hours of content on a single DVD, how is this possible? (Not double sided.)

There’s a number of factors that could impact this. First is the type of DVD being used. There are basically four main formats. Single layer, single sided is the most basic and can hold 4.7GB. You can double the layers or the sides or both, which gives you a maximum size of 15.9 GB. (A single sided, single layer Blu-Ray can hold 25GB).
So if it’s a dual layer, dual sided disk it can hold almost 4 times the content of the basic DVD disc.
If you lower the quality of the video you can fit more content on as well. Maybe it’s close to top DVD quality but off enough to squeeze in just enough extra time.
You can also save space by not having so many special features on the disc
