Bollywood?

topic posted Thu, March 13, 2008 - 11:46 AM by 
Hey ya'll!! I just realized I've never seen a Bollywood movie (except the snippet in Ghost World, which i thought was the bom-diggity!!) Any suggestions? I'd prefer no subtitles if possible, but either way, what's a good, fun, dancy, musicy Bollywood flick you like?

I'm also feeling like watchin' some other movies- what are some good humor, sci-fi and action flicks that are out on DVD?

Watchingly,
Major Tom

    I love anything staring Aishwarya Rai. She is my all time girl crush.

    I might be interpreting your question wrong, but I think the only English Bollywood film she has been in was "Bride and Prejudice".

    Ya know, there's a place in Richardson called "FunAsia" that shows Hindi and Bollywood movies on 6 screens. I've been meaning to go forever but never quite seem to make it out there. If anyone would like to provide incentive by meeting me there sometime I would LOVE to go!!!

    www.funasia.net/

    (It looks like there's not a big musical "Bollywood" production on at the moment, but there's usually at least one every week)

    my favorite part about bollywood movies are the dancing sequences. Man, some of those movies have the coolest dancing i've eva seen.

      FYI, move studio has Bollywood classes every Tuesday night. You learn a dance sequence from a Bollywood film every week.

        My all-time favourite Bollywood movie (and I've seen maybe a dozen+?) is Laagan: Once Upon a Time in India. Like most Bollywood flix it's about 3 hours long, involves conflict/struggle, a love story, a stunning soundtrack, dancing, beautiful costumes, etc... It is excellent!!
