Bollywood is formally referred to as Hindi cinema. There has been a growing presence of Indian English in dialogue and songs as well.

The name "Bollywood" is derived from Bombay (the former name for Mumbai) and Hollywood, the center of the American film industry.

Bollywood films are mostly musicals, and are expected to contain catchy music in the form of song and dance numbers woven into the script. A film's success often depends on the quality of such musical numbers. Indeed, a film's music is often released before the movie itself and helps increase the audience.

Bollywood employs people from all parts of India. It attracts thousands of aspiring actors and actresses, all hoping for a break in the industry. Models and beauty contestants, television actors, theatre actors and even common people come to Mumbai with the hope and dream of becoming a star. Just as in Hollywood, very few succeed. Since many Bollywood films are shot abroad, many foreign extras are employed too.

  1. Action packed story line with great locations , lavish setting, and sometimes a catchy song/dance sequence which has nothing to do with the actual movie but cleverly molded into the script.
  2. 4 to 8 Songs, may include live dance and song or in the background.
  3. Most successful movies will have at least one A rated star.
  4. All highest grossing movies have an actor who is a Khan.

Bollywood films are mostly on love. Romance is the most common theme. It is a trend from the beginning.

Unfortunately, Bollywood films usually revolve around similar topics. They are either too much romantic or too much action and vulgar. There are some movies with good stories. But those are rare.
