Bollywood Star Dust

Surprisingly, God has given us some special day to celebrate. India is popular for its expensive festivals. Even Diwali is celebrated in United States of America. The indian people in America do celebrate the festival of Holi. There are many religious organization in America by indian hindu people those celebrate every festival. The same happens even in United Kingdom. The bollywood people are quite popular for playing color on the occasion of holi festival. Let alone bollywood, even the people from indian natioanal capital are seen playing the gigantic color festival. Sonia Gandhi, Atal Bihari Vajpayee, Lalkrishna Advani are popular for playing colors on the day of holi.

Now we are going to have a discussion as to the bollywood stars, how they feel and how they play colors on the occasion of sacred festival of holi. We have the following people for their as for the holi.

Deepika Padukone

The bollywood's most wanted heroine in these days is Deepika Padukone. She believes in playing colors on the occasion of holi. Unfortunately, this year she avoided playing holi as there was shooting of bollywood movies just next day to holi. So she tells of her inability of playing colors. However, she retrospects the bygone days of holi. Deepika tells playing holi is really a fun and she used to play with her school friends  in her building. The bollywood sirenic heroin was extremly cautious about her hair and skin while playing colors in her teens.

Esha Deol

Esha says her mischief when she was a kid. The bollywood actress Esha expresses herself about being wild. Even Esha Deol has thrown eggs to people. Once she had to go to police station after throwing eggs on a police. She really goes wild on the occasion of holi.  She enjoys it to the fullest. Though I have been sober in these days I have not left my eagerness to play holi, says Esha. Our first ritual is to put colors on lord krishna then play colors. Esha also takes care of her hair and skin on the occasion of holi by using coconut oil

Puja Bedi

Though the occasion of holi is extremely funny, enjoying, entertaining, colorful and crazy but extreme exposure to sun and colors of chemical is harmful to the skin. Says the bollywood heroin Puja Bedi. I take preventive measures while playing holi. The bollywood heroine expresses how she takes care of her skin by putting coconut oil and post  holi she scrubs her skin to remove the color on the body. I put  a thin film of coconut oil on my body which helps to remove colors on my body. Says bollywood actress Puja Bedi.

Anushka Sharma

Anuska Sharma is an enthusiastic holi player as she finds it extremely colorful, energetic and creates friendly attitude in spite of jealousy and enemity. She enjoys fully, says bollywodod actor. However, she advises to be extremely careful about the harmful Gulal, baloons and pichkari that people use on the occasion of holi. Anuska is of opinion to use coconut oil on the scalp thoroughly to avoid damage to the hair and skin. After playing holi one should clean the hair and skin thouroghly which is the first and foremost duty of everyone. This is the short stories of the stars of the bollywood movies those who are having flair for playing colors.

In 1913 Raja Harishchandra made the very first Indian silent film called ‘Dadasaheb Phalke', ushering in the era of bollywood. Bollywood was very successful and was producing around 200 new titles a year when it really hit fame with it's first color film in Hindi ‘Kisan Kanya' in 1937, this film made bollywood history.

In the 1950's bollywood made some of it's most famous films like ‘Pyassa' (1957) and ‘Awaara' (1951). These two films really put Hindi movies on the map and were to become great classics that are still popular today. When we think of bollywood movies we think of vibrant colors, lively music and deeply cultural dance routines which have taken the western world by storm through sheer force of energy.

The latest bollywood films to make it large on the screen include titles such as ‘Dulha Mil Gaya' which stars Fardeen Khan, ‘Shaapit' which stars Aditya Narayan, ‘Ravaan' which stars Abhishek Bachchan, ‘Mallika' which stars Sheena Nayar and ‘Dabangg' which stars Salman Khan. These are just some of the latest Hindi releases which have come out in 2010 but the list is large and should definitely be looked over.

There are some bollywood films set to be released later this year that have great anticipation surrounding them. There is the comedy ‘Do Dooni Charr' starring Rishi Kapoor to be released on the 8th of October. The romance ‘Guzaarish' starring Hrithik Roshan to be released on the 19th of November and a thriller movie ‘No One Killed Jessica' starring Vidya Balan which will be released on the 10th of December. There are many more titles not mentioned which are being eagerly awaited for, and with so much success and rich theatre it is no wonder bollywood films are so popular.

There is also bollywood entertainment for children such as ‘Bumm Bumm Bole' which stars Darsheel Safary and ‘The camp' which stars Sonali Kulkarni. What is so fantastic about these bollywood films is that adults seem to enjoy them just as much as the children. They are really rich family entertainment and they carry on the bright and wondrous tradition of bollywood film.

If you are not a steadfast bollywood fan and have a cliché stuck in your mind about loud and purely comedic Indian dancing you should perhaps clear your mind. A lot of people unfamiliar with bollywood films seem to assume that they are all comedies but there are actually more romance, thriller, action and drama films than comedy and these films most certainly are not cliché, they are rich and imaginative, moving and surprising. It is the westerners who seem to be the cliché ones, popping a label on a culture's film industry without really delving into it and embracing the beauty of some truly memorable Hindi cinema.

The bollywood movies are being produced with high budget in the current scenario of entertainment. Everything has gone expensive due to immense inflation of the market. The household material has been skyrocketed. The people are seen to be accustomed with the present cost of the market. The bollywood movies are being expensive day by day since the actors and the production costs goes to be high spontaneously due to inflation. However, the people are still capable of watching bollywood movies paying a lot. India is a big country and the people are being sophisticated in all their activities. If the people are spending huge amount in their dresses, vehicles and ultimately in restaurants, then why they should not spend the amount in the field of entertainment which unwinds the stresses of mind.  The bollywood movies are one of the ways and means to relax the mind after a daylong stress.

There are many reasons for the bollywood movies to be expensive. Usually, the actors are demanding astronomical amount to participate in the completion of the bollywood movies. In spite of competition the quality actors unavailable in the market which triggers high costs for the completion of any movies. There are very rare numbers of actors who are taking reasonable price. However, there is no guarantee on the Indian films if it will run at length. Which is why, the producer is compelled to pay the huge amount to the quality actors to make a big success in the field of entertainment. Shahrukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Salman Khan, Amir Khan and Akshay Kumar are among the top paid actors. Ranbir Kapoor is the new comer who has great demand in bollywood world. Ranbir Kapoor's movies have been proved to be highly successful in this competitive time. Some of the actors like Shahrukh and Salman have lost their glamour to entertain the people in these days.

The negativity of high budget bollywood movies is loss if the film does not run well in the market. It is the people trend and time that helps the movie to make a success in the field of entertainment. The bollywood is also very careful as to the promotion. So the promotion on television, radio, newspapers and on the internet keeps on going as soon as the bollywood movies start to be shot. It of course makes the wallet thin of the producer. Eventually, if the film runs well then it brings reputation for both bollywood, producer and also for actors. The high budget bollywood movies face another problem of distribution since already it has spent a lot of money it naturally becomes for distributor very costly. So, there remains a fear of loss for the distributors.

The pros of the high budget bollywood movies are many. The film shots are done naturally in good places of the world. Mostly, the movies are shot in the major and famous cities of the world. The western actors remain available in the movies that entice the people to watch.  However, it is generally seen the high budget bollywood movies fetch very good business for both producers and distributors.

The war and competition is the part and parcel of every human being. Time was there when the kings and emperors used to fight physically. Autocracy claimed many innocent lives. However, in course of time the human being has been more sophisticated. Everyone needed peace and happiness. The social animal became calm day by day. The fight took a different shape. This fight is neither physical nor verbal. This is a virtual war that has touched almost 25 percents of the population of the world. Even this virtual war has not spared Both Hollywood and bollywood. Which is why, the bollywood movies are being popular at a breakneck speed virtually.

Surprisingly, during last five years the social media has been so potential that no one can but use it. The social networking websites have been the integral part of every one's life. It has both created the life and destroyed the life as well. The facebook, twitter, myspace and orkut in India have been a household name in the current scenario of internet business. The bollywood stars have started using of Facebook, Orkut and Twitter etc. at a supersonic speed. Even, the forthcoming bollywood movies are being popularized by means of social media websites. Especially, bollywood actors have been using Facebook and twitter since these social websites have popularity on the web and user friendly as well.

The Hollywood star Michael Jackson has a fan on not only Facebook but has a verified account on twitter. Similarly, the Hollywood's sexy siren Megan fox has a very popular Facebook page and verified twitter page as well. The bollywood stars Amitabh Bachchan, Shahrukh Khan, Salman Khan, Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone etc. are not lagging behind since Bollywood movies have been always seen the follower of Hollywood movies. The bollywood superstar Shahrukh has been twitting at a hypersonic speed while Salman khan has increased his followers on twitter at a supersonic speed.

The bollywood movies were being popularized by dint of television, radio and newspaper beforehand.  However, the bollywood has changed its trend and has stepped forward towards the digital marketing. The forthcoming bollywood movies are being promoted through search engines and on social media websites. This brings millions of visitors to the websites and the movies become popular virtually. So to speak, the popularity by means of internet is the part of viral marketing. During last year the movies like Kambakkht Ishq, Love Aaj Kal, Aladin and De dana Dan has got huge response on the web. Currently, it seems that the forthcoming bollywood movie housefull will have a success at the box office since millions of visitors have the response on the web.

What to speak of desktop and laptop internet connection, even the WAP and 3G technology has made the people easy to access the information as to bollywood movies. The people are being able to entertain the life while on the move. It seems the world is at the humans' disposal due to the presence of internet and WAP technology. The people can enjoy the promos and trailers of the bollywood movies by virtue of FM radio, mobile phones, MP3, MP4 and all other newly developed gadgets.

Surprisingly the days are being peculiar with the presence of internet. People were missing and it was difficult to find out the whereabouts. The only media was newspapers, television and radio inquiry as for the missing person. However, in course of time everything got changed. The cellular phone created havoc among the people. No one is missing and the globe has remained at our disposal. In these days bollywood stars also are running after the internet to keep in touch with the people to make their sociality stronger. Especially, the bollywood star Shah Rukh has been seen very popular on both facebook and twitter. He is having a verified account on twitter like other celebrities.

The Mega star Amitabh Bachchan of bollywood movies has been seen also popular in bigada which is one of the most popular blogging sites.  He himself has been writing as to his daily activities on this blog. He especially writes creatively with regard to his forthcoming movies, family life and even he does not hesitate to express his heath issues on this blog. Besides this he has a twitter account and also has a lager fans on facebook. Even some fans have created the fan page on facebook in the name of bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan. Amitabh's only son Abhishekh has also a twitter account where he tweets regularly.

After getting a huge response on veer blog the shirtless hunk Salman has started twittering. His followers are increasing by leaps and bounds. Salman seems to cross the followers of bollywood superstar Shah rukh Khan. Shah rukh khan has more than 3 lakhs of followers on twitter while Salman has near about lakhs followers within a short span of time. So, it indicates Salman Khan will cross the race of social networking very soon and make a record. Salman is basically fond of blogs since he used to respond amicably to the people everyday on his Veer blog. He had dedicated his veer blog to his dad.

Not only the menfolk of bollywood movies are eager to race on social networking but also fair sexes of bollywood are having flair for competing on twitter and facebook etc. The bollywood heroine Priyanka Chopra is the burning example on twitter. She has very big followers on her verified twitter account. The most wanted bollywood actress Priyanka has the supersonic speed in the competition of social race on the internet. She has more than 3 lakhs followers on her verified account that has just improved limitless.

Let alone these actors, even almost all the actors of bollywood movies have recently developed a mania to present themselves on the networking sites. They just don't want to leave any stone unturned to remain popular in the world. Bollywood action hero Akshay Kumar, Shahid Kapoor, Amir Khan, Deepika Padukone and Kareena Kapoor are also busy in presenting themselves on the web. Bollywood movies has gone digital. The bollywood not only uses the social networking sites to keep in touch with the people but also the blogging sites, article sites etc. it is seen that the promotion of bollywood movies has been an integral part of its promotion before its release.

Talking about clashes, this one was the mother of all clashes. Can you possibly think any director can be a challenge to James Cameroon? Well, it’s the dawn of the new head named Bollywood. To be more precise Raju Hirani has done the impossible.

3 idiots have done what no one had ever thought of. Before Avatar would release, everyone couldn’t stop blabbering about the movie and the accolades which James Cameroon had accomplished, next generation animation and what not. But, now people are just talking over 3 Idiots, which had no special effects, no James Cameroon nor the cost which Avatar had. Yes! The movie did have Aamir Khan though! What can be said about Mr. Perfectionist? Whenever you count him out, he does something supernatural to get himself back on the charts.

Avatar was based on sci-fiction whereas 3 Idiots was based on the life and struggle of youngsters (Engg. Students). Let’s take nothing away from the Hollywood’s ace director James Cameroon. Avatar is one hell of a movie with mind boggling graphics and special effects. It is really a visual treat for all ages, especially children. But, what the movie lacked is the raw emotion which 3 Idiots had. This is also a fundamental distinction between Hollywood and Bollywood. Bollywood films tend to touch our lives somehow or the other. One such movie is 3 idiots. Avatar was something which was appreciative, no doubt. But it hardly related to humans living in today’s world, whereas, 3 Idiots had something for everyone.

No one could have ever imagined that a Bollywood movie can outperform a big time Hollywood movie. But, yet another time Bollywood has shown its forte and caliber to make good movies and left the costliest Hollywood flick Avatar flummoxed.

It turns out that Rajkumar Hirani's 3 Idiots has out grossed and outperformed James Cameron's 'Avatar' at the UK Box Office! Imagine a $1.2 billion (and still counting) phenomenon called 'Avatar' is trampled by Rs 35 crore-budgeted Bollywood flick!

3 Idiots retains its position in the UK Top Ten after raking in more moolah than Avatar on its first day of release. This Bollywood flick has become the highest grossing Bollywood movie in the UK, beating the likes of Shahrukh Khan's 2008 film 'Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi' and even 'Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna'. It has broken records for Indian films in the US, Australia, South Africa, Pakistan, Fiji and Kenya.

Bollywood has vanquished Hollywood for the first time and that too not for any ordinary movie. 3 Idiots has really made the whole Bollywood film fraternity proud.

Bollywood has yet again proved that they have what it takes to make mind-boggling, path breaking movies! What is the need of the hour for Bollywood at this point of time? We need more movies like 3 Idiots which can uplift the level of Bollywood and make a whole new level for movies. We need to draw a line of superiority when it comes to world movies. A few more years down the line and Bollywood will be head to head with Hollywood, and the credit will go to our great film makers!

Bollywood is India's most popular source of entertainment. The entertainment is there for us constantly. Unfortunately there is a large volume of the population in India who are poor and uneducated and can't always afford to enjoy what Bollywood has to offer. However things have changed a lot in the last two decades. Many people are unable to buy good - or if they are, they might not be able to read them. Many households still don't have a television set in their house. Newspapers and magazines we have already ruled out, so cinema is the only means of entertainment for them. If they earn Rs.1200 a month they will spend Rs.300 on the cinema per month, Rs.300 on Daru (alcohol), and Rs.100 on Bollywood film star posters. The remaining will be spent on getting by.

India is a hot country. In summertime the temperature can go as high as 52. We are more likely in April or June to go into town for shopping of business because there is air conditioning in cities like Mumbai. If you are out and about, you have to get to a shop or hotel by 1pm, otherwise will be uncomfortably hot. For lunch there are many air conditioned restaurants, but you have to have money, otherwise you will be out on the roadside by 2.30pm.

Going to the cinema is an option to stay out of the heat. It does not matter who the film star is, or the director, they will spend Rs.50 to buy a ticket for an air conditioned hall and sleep in the dark before the film even starts. This is not a trick of the trade, this is a need and a necessity for many. Even cinema owners know this, and they sometimes help you by keeping the volume down in an afternoon show.

On a slightly different but not unrelated note, bridal costumes are inspired greatly by Bollywood. Brides will look no further than Bollywood when they want to buy a dress for the special day. They watch the films, especially the ones newly released, with the brand new styles. When they go shopping for a dress, the shop owner might say "madam, I have a newly designed dress which was worn by the Bollywood film star, Karina Kapoor, in this film, or by Katrina Kaif in that Bollywood film". They will say that either they supplied the dress, or that they designed it and have exclusive rights for its reproduction.

When Bollywood films are made, they keep the bridal dress in the market. They are like sponsors for the bridal dress market, which is very big. Bollywood is larger than life. If you have the money you can buy a bridal dress that was actual worn during a Bollywood shooting, but they come with a huge price tag. Indian bridal dresses are controlled by Bollywood. I wonder what will be next?

It might seem strange at first glance that Bollywood and Hollywood have become such cozy friends. The world’s two greatest film industries have always been independent of each other, with different aesthetics, storylines, actors and audiences.

But after more than a century running parallel to each other, Bollywood and Hollywood are now engaged in a symbiotic dance that has seen Bollywood movies become a Hollywood success, Singh is King top the worldwide box office charts, and Spiderman in all its avatars win the box office in India. Aishwarya Rai does a juicy cameo in Pink Panther:2, Sylvester Stallone and Denise Rich do cameos in Khambakht Ishq, and Snoop Dogg is an enthusiastic item boy for the keynote song in Singh is King. Hollywood is now financing Hindi movies, while Bollywood finances Hollywood flicks.

Cultural Imperialism is dead. Long live cultural free trade.

Still, some things do get lost in translation, so the increasing cooperation between the two film industries has created a demand for people who understand them both intimately.

Vishal Solanki is a gifted, young cinematographer who has experience in both cultures and both industries. Solanki began studying photography initially at the Indo American Society in Mumbai and subsequently succeeded in enrolling at the over 150 years old historic Sir J. J. Inst. Of Applied Art, Mumbai (the most reputed institution for Applied Art in India).

While studying for his BFA, Solanki also spent a lot of time drawing, painting and studying all forms of artistic applications. Solanki graduated Sir J. J. Institute Of Applied Art winning 5 awards, including the State Government Bronze Award for best work, the CAG Bronze and the John Walter Thompson ‘Big Idea of the Year’.

He returned to work as an apprentice to renowned veteran Director of Photography Binod Pradhan on commercials, music videos and one of the most successful movies in Bollywood history, Munnabhai MBBS directed by Rajkumar Hirani. Solanki also assisted cinematographer Vijay Kartik on his famous Bollywood venture Taxi No. 9211, directed by Milan Luthria.

On the other side of the world, Solanki was Director of Photography on Losing You, a feature film directed by Canadian director Ian Clay, which is slated for release in 2009.

Apart from feature films, he has created a stir in the Documentary genre, which is almost non-existent in Bollywood. His work on documentary Pashan Palvi has received immense praise and his work on female infanticide documentary titled ‘Sunaina’ is receiving a great response in film festivals in Europe.

When did you know you were going to be a cinematographer?

It happened over time, so I can’t give you a precise date. I always loved movies, and was particularly drawn to the look of a movie. While I was studying painting at Sir J. J. Inst. Of Applied Art, I took up a course in still photography alongside.

Soon I was assisting my seniors in lighting portraits and helping them out in the dark room printing black and white photos. I then took up photography as my specialization at JJ. I was 18 and during that time, I was looking at movies constantly to get inspiration for lighting. Slowly, I realized that cinematography would offer me avenues to discover both lighting along with emotions with the help of narrative. Devdas had just released and whole of Bollywood was stunned by the visuals created by Binod Pradhan. After that, I had no doubts that I wanted to work and learn under him. I called his residence for around fifteen days non-stop, making friends with all his family, but he was generally out on shoots. Finally one day he picked up the phone and allowed me to meet him on set at Concorde Studios where he was shooting a commercial for Fair and Lovely cream. I would say after that shoot, I had no doubts that cinematography is what I wanted to do.

Was there a formal connection between the institute and Bollywood? Did you know when you got out of college you would work in Bollywood?

Well I won’t say that there was a visibly formal connection, but at the same time people seem to trust students of JJ without any doubt. I was doing still photography when I was 19 and 20 for big clients like Airtel, Planet M and a lot of advertising print media. Also, some alumni of JJ had emerged as successful filmmakers both in ad films and feature films. I just looked up to them and I thought that if they could do it, I could do it as well. I did not look at Bollywood as the only area of concentration since there was a lot of media like tv commercials, music videos and documentaries which in essence is not always Bollywood but I still have a strong liking in creating such media.

So your career began when you were still in school. What did you do then?

I am very happy with the way things have gone. I was always the youngest no matter which set I was on. At a certain point, people advised me that I was young and that I had time for formal training. I then planned to leave for my studies in Cinematography and Directing. I received an honors in both from the Los Angeles Film School in Hollywood.

That’s interesting, how do you compare and differentiate between Bollywood and Hollywood? Did you notice a difference between the industries?

Yes, definitely. There is a difference in almost everything. Every thought. Every way of doing things. On a larger level Bollywood is a film industry, whose psychology is primarily based on sentiments and beliefs of the Indian culture to a large extent and Hollywood is a more assorted basket as far as these beliefs are concerned. It is a more cosmopolitan mix of screenwriters, directors and other technicians who come along from diverse backgrounds. Also I think Hollywood films have a more universal liking than Bollywood generally because they are made for a wider audience whereas Bollywood aims at Indian audiences in India and rest of the world generally. Language also plays an important role in reaching larger audiences. Technically, there is also a difference in the length, pacing and the structure in which the scripts are written. Also, it is important to not that Indian audiences are very different from rest of the world. Very often it happens that a Hollywood film which does great in the US may not do as good at the box office in India and vice-versa.

Who are your favorite cinematographers and why?

I admire the work of cinematographers like Vittorio Storaro, Conrad Hall, Roger Deakins, Christopher Doyle, Dion Beebe, John Toll, Wally Pfister, Gordon Willis, Rodreigo Prieto, Dante Spinotti and Bill Pope. From Indian cinematographers, I am a big fan of Binod Pradhan, Ravi K. Chandran, Santosh Sivan, Ashok Mehta and Anil Mehta. I think they all have great skills in lighting and composition of course, but on a higher level it is how they perceive a script and transform it into compelling storytelling.

What was the most challenging job you’ve had and why?

I cannot think of one now. I mean of course there are many challenging things in every project we do, but most of that is planned in pre-production stages. I generally shoot films in many languages. Releve was no dialogue, whereas El Buen Amigo was in Spanish, Pashan Palvi was in Marathi and Losing You in English. India speaks many languages! This is a challenge for any cinematographer because in the end, he has to interpret the script and create his own language on celluloid which is based on lights and shadows; where every audience can connect on an emotional level. Also I have had the opportunity of working with good directors who knew exactly what they wanted so I cannot think of any anecdotes.

What is the future of cinematography, and film itself? The near future? Long term future? What new technology should we look out for?

As everyone knows that film is diminishing, as in film stock, digital technology such as Hi Definition and Blu Ray are definitely the near future. The beauty of technology is that you never know the long term future, because technology

always takes us by surprise! One thing is for sure, media will get more easy to access, through the internet via cell phones, laptops etc. making viewing an easier experience.

And what is the future of Bollywood-Hollywood cooperation and co-production?

It will be a great fusion of different sensibilities and techniques, coming together to tell a universal story with emotions for a worldwide audience. Both India and the US are vast countries, with cosmopolitan cities and people from all around the world and different cultures. India within Indians itself, is so diverse with so many languages, dialects and cultural behavior. This is just the beginning and I am sure it is one of a breathtaking journey!

Bollywood is recognised as the biggest film industry of the world. There is no doubt in this, that this big film industry has given a number of interesting successful films to the movie lovers. This film industry is in India, but you can see the craze about the movies of the Bollywood in other nations also.

But, apart from the films, there is one more aspect of this film industry, that always remains in the limelight and people take a lot of interest in it. The aspect refers to the Bollywood celebrity gossips. These are special types of news about the actors and actresses of the Bollywood. Such news items may be regarding their roles in latest films, or regarding their personal lives. People listen to these gossips with a lot of interest. Many of the film magazines and the movies sections of the newspapers can be seen full of such items. It is really interesting that many people take more interest in these as compared to the films.

Majority of times these gossips are about the affairs of different actors and actresses. Whereas some others may be related to any big or small criminal activity committed by a Bollywood actor intentionally and unintentionally. Divorce cases of some actors also fall under the same category. An instance can be taken, that some days back some of the actors were caught for hunting the black deer. Moreover, their daily activities are often the subject of gossip. For instance, what an actor did in a party, who misbehaved with whom? What they wore in the fashion shows, jealousy between actresses and many other like these also fall under the category of gossip.

But all this really doesn't mean that these are related to only the personal lives of the actors. Some juicy information about the role of an actor or an actress also come under the category of Bollywood celebrity gossips. It may include the costume worn by the actresses in the films, romantic scenes and many others. Now, the advancement in technology has made it easy for everyone to get the updated gossips. You can see a number of websites that are full of latest juicy gossips. You can get the information with ease on these sites.

People do a lot of criticism about the Bollywood celebrity gossips a lot. But, it has a number of positive points also. You can get updated news of the Bollywood with the help of these aspects. These help the people in getting informed about the events going on in the film industry. As mentioned above, some individuals have started some special magazines regarding these. The business of these magazines are going on hike. It is for sure, that these gossips are those aspects, that will continue to entertain the people till the Bollywood continues to exist.

The Indian entertainment sector was named as Bollywood due to the combination of Goddess Mumbadevi and former Bombay. The word for Indian cinema was coined as Bollywood keeping in mind the world’s biggest entertainment Hollywood. During last decade many new words were coined those are pertaining to entertainment. India has hosts of languages. There are many regional languages such as: Marathi, Telgu, Tamil, Odia, Kannad and Bhojpuri etc. Though the Hindi movies have been proved to be predominant, yet the people have not left their love to their local language in the lurch. After the word Bollywood was coined, the new words in different languages in entertainment segment came to light. The words are Kollywood Tollywood, and Ollywood etc.

The success of Bollywood movies obviously denotes the success of Indian economy. Since, before a decade the Indian films were low at its budget. These movies were only shot in Indian rural areas and cities. Whereas, the movies in these days are being shot in the major cities of the world. The people have flair to watch the movie. The Indian TV channels have mushroomed during last ten years which is a clear indication of the improvement to the Indian economy. As economy started growing, the Bollywood found its heyday.

The Indian movies started with high budgets. At the same time the business at the box office touched its apex. That gave inspiration to the Bollywood producers, directors, actors and actress etc. Previously we had experience of Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmedra, Jitendra and Mithun Chakravarty etc. The Indian film heroin were also very few. The women from Indian culture were reluctant to enter into semi-nude acting in Bollywood. However, the time spoke and people left their conservatism. Youngsters became open minded and they started entering in to the Bollywood.

There was a scarcity for the heroines in Bollywood Movies before fifteen years. However, the unavailability of heroin in Hindi film is not a distant dream. Sridevi, Tina muni, Jayprada, Rekha, Hema Malini were the few names in Indian Bollywood. But, the Bollywood heroines are aplenty in the present scenario of Hindi cinema. Kareena Kapoor, Zarine, Katrina, Aishwria Rai and Ayesha Takia are the popular names those who are hyperactive to promote Indian entertainment. Basically, the actors of the current trends are having flexibility to act any role in the movie. The Indian actors are in these days highly versatile. They can perform any role starting from comedy, thriller, romance to pathetic etc.

Surprisingly, the year 2009 and the beginning of the year 2010 were extremely successful in doing business in Bollywood. The highly successful movies are slumdog millionaire, Kambakkht Ishq, Love Aaj Kal, Paa, Wanted, Ajab Prem Ki Gazab Kahani etc. Currently the movie 3idiots is a huge hit in the history of Indian entertainment. It has a gross business of more than 300 crores. It is believed that the year ahead for the business of the Indian media and entertainment will remain intact as economy of India is developing by leaps and bounds. So to speak, the Bollywood is going to go places in the near future.
