Produktbeschreibung

The Hindi film industry, based in Mumbai (formerly Bombay), is the largest branch of Indian cinema. Hindi film Industry is often called 'Bollywood' (a blending of Hollywood and Bombay). The word "Bollywood" is sometimes applied to Indian cinema as a whole, especially outside South Asia and the South Asian Diaspora, but this usage is incorrect. 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, the audience. the Indian film Industry has preferred films that appeal to all segments of the audience and has resisted making films that target narrow audiences. It was believed that aiming for a broad spectrum would maximize box office receipts. The volumes document this incredible story of Hindi films. The book takes the reader on a chronologically-charted odyssey through each epoch of this historic and dramatic journey.
