Is my fund selection good for long term wealth creation

It is quite encouraging to see the effort your team takes in comprehensively responding to questions. Do keep up the good work. I need your views on my portfolio below & kindly suggest if I should make changes given that some of these funds are not doing well. I have a long term wealth creation horizon. My age is 36. Investments: ICICI Prudential Value Discovery - Growth - 4000 / month, ICICI Prudential Exports & Other Services - Dividend - 2000 / month, BSL Top 100 Growth - 2000 / month, BSL India GenNext Growth - 4000 / month, BSL MNC Fund Growth - 2000 / month, SBI Pharma Growth - 2000 / month, SBI Blue Chip - 2000 / month. Also, since markets are always unpredictable, is it better to choose Div Payout which ensures I book profits regularly rather than the Growth option where an inactive investor may lose money in a fall? Thank you again for the help & congratulations on the good work you are doing.
