Bollywood et al

The eccentricity of Bollywood films is one of the most talked about paradigm in Indian cinema, with it’s elaborate song and dance routines………… Yet propelling ambiguity…….. Well, its thrust on world cinema had quite an effective blossom…. It can be considered as the true reflection of Persistence of vision and not to mention Beta movement and Phi Phenomenon… There are quite a few reasons behind why these movies should be considered important………..

  • The skimpily dressed heroine dancing in the rain….and then falls in love with the hero…..suddenly becomes fully clad …….a rape attempt follows……….hero comes to rescue beating up 15 odd rapists all by himself (all breaking knifes and swords not to mention car windows and boxes in a smuggled goods’ godown……and whatever that crosses his path) lends his jacket to cover the already covered body after being rescued….and then the heroine comes to return his jacket and they fall in love…..what a fallacy!!!!
  • I also wonder why it rains every time they start singing and dancing around the trees……if it’s a Yash Chopra or a Karan Johar movie the rain is replaced by snowfall in Switzerland…..!!!!
  • Also One of their greatest achievements would be dancing in the middle of trafficking road under the scorching heat in summers………. Weird fantasy!!!!!
  • Costumes ….. Aha……. Wearing red mini skirts and purple Brassiere …… ideal for their boogie in the wintry snow…. And of course wearing black Mask of Zorro costume in the desert cannot be ignored…are they really made up of flesh and blood???
  • Songs……..For all occasions….to express their heart felt sorrow for the dying hero’s mum or heroine’s pa…...to celebrate the heroine’s first pregnancy….all to mourn your life when heroine ditches the poor hero and marries a rich man…….not to mention she keeps loving the hero all her life and eventually helped by her husband to get back to her Ex-Flame…..sometimes it may also happen that she might fall in love with her rich husband too(aka aishwarya rai in hum dil de chuke sanam) And of course no matter when n where they sing, musicians and team of dancers are always ready to increase the effects (whether in the village or city, may it be on top of the mountain or in the middle of the sea)
  • Double Role………. Even if the hero dies …don’t get depressed ….there always remains a chance of his existence though with a different identity but with same physique and face…… PS: they might not posses any blood relation.
  • Villains…. They ought to have good brain, brawn, wealth, power and everything that is socially disgraceful…. But heroes always have super powers in their possession… they can alone finish up the whole gang with style… and up to six-seven bullets can always be considered…….somehow villains are very bad with their aim…even with truck full of ammo they fail to finish a job for which our hero needs just one
  • The film must contain a love affair with either of the pair should be filthy rich and the other “begging” poor…same standards not accepted…..
  • Love making scenes …………. If you find two flowers moving or ceiling fan revolving just after a hugging scene…exercise your imagination…..P.S. things are different in a film starring Mallika Sherawat.

Bollywood films featuring romantic musicals that were highly melodramatic about wealth, beauty and glamour, which now have become a staple in the genre. Stereotypes of popular cinema, addressing poverty and adversity, instead of the fairytale story lines is quite popular among the educated elite, as the masses who had been brought up on the diet of happy, unrealistic films found them unappealing. Whether or not you enjoy these fantastic films, it's important to recognize the substantial presence of Bollywood in the modern film industry. OH HELL!!!!
