We are using ElasticSearch 5.0.0.

Please find data in movies index in ElasticSearch in attachment.

Please let us know if there is a simpler query or any other way to perform the aggregation query given in snippet below on all the fields of index in mapping instead of just this single column.

```
GET /movies/_search?pretty
{
  "size": 0,
  "_source": false,
  "query": {
    "query_string": {
      "analyze_wildcard": true,
      "query": "*drama*"
    }
  },
  "aggs": {
    "distinct_tables_1": {
      "terms": {
        "field": "_type"
      },
      "aggs": {
        "distinct_col_1": {
          "terms": {
            "field": "genres.keyword",
            "include" : ".*rama.*"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}
```
