You might think that the largest and most active film industry is the
american one, based
in Hollywood ... but you're wrong! The biggest one
is called Bollywood and is located in
Bombay, India. Together
with film studios in Madras (Tamil movies) and Hyderabad,
Bollywood
floods the indian sub-continent with some 1000 movies a year!
There are 20 to 30 top actors/actresses in India - each of them has a
schedule of about
5 films a year! Also, you'll not find a film which
runs less then 2.5 hours! There's a lot
of professionalism combined
with huge talent that gives us movies like
Hum Aapke
Hain Koun..! (making has cost about 1 million US$,
made 30 million US$ at the box office
the first year) ...
This is Sridevi with blues eyes ... some-
thing
you don't see very often in India ;-) It's a film trick of course, she has
very beautiful,
brown eyes! The shot is from the movie Nigaahen ...
This is Juhi Chawla in a dance number from
Naajayaz. Most of
the time the girls are wearing modern (quite western) clothing in the
movies
but for the dances they dress in those gorgeous outfits!
She's my alltime favorite, therefor
Juhi Chawla is represented with two
pictures (and a few more on the next pages!).
This one shows her with
Shah Rukh Khan in Darr. Maybe her best known movie.
She must be here!
The Rani, the reigning Queen of Bollywood, Madhuri Dixit! The one and only actress
who has ever earned as much as her male colleagues. To know why, you've to see her dance!
She shot into fame with the Ek Do Teen.. number and her last recent superhit
Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! may well reach Sholay in terms of popularity!
