Bollywood: the Hollywood of India

You might be surprised to learn that India produces about 800 movies a year, and that number continues to grow. Just as the movie Capital of the United States is Hollywood, the movie capital of India is Bombay(孟买), but it is usually called “Bollywood”, a combination(结合)of the words Bombay and Hollywood.

No Bollywood movie is thought complete without a few songs and dances. In fact, music is an important part of Bollywood movies. Even a bad movie can still do well if the music is good. (1)音乐导演有时候比电影明星更受欢迎。A Bollywood movie has five to six songs with at least three songs to show what the dances mean.

Bollywood may be different from Hollywood in music, but it is very like Hollywood in several ways. If Tom Cruise can hold a gun, so can the Bollywood hero Sharukh Khan. Bollywood stars are followed by news reporters just as often as Hollywood stars. (2)The personal lives of actors and actresses catch the headlines(头版头条), just as they do in the United States.

The Oscars is a very exciting time of the year for actors and actresses in America. Bollywood has its won form of the Oscars, and it is also very exciting.
