Hi!!
Welcome to Bollywood Chewing-Gum!
This world will be about... well Bollywood! For those who doesn't know what Bollywood is, it's a the name given to the movies made in Bombay (now Mumbai) in India. Indians movies are... uniques. In Occident we describe it as kitch and people doesn't like it... So it's a question of taste I guess.
Personally i find it magical! They don't try to reprensent reality, but they want to make people dream, to forget for one moment their complicated life...
So I'll present Bollywood's movies like Om Shanti Om, Devdas or Saawariya... I've not seen a lot of movies (but I'll try to resolve this problem^^) so don't expect me to edit a large number of articles which present movies.
I'll also talk about dancing scenes in particular. Indeed Bollywood movies all contains (at the exception of the movie Black) about 6 dancing scenes.
Here you go, I don't know when I'll post my first article yet because I have to understand how it work lol.
Bye Bye
The 1st March was the Holi festival! I know that was last week! Shame on me to forgot this!!!!!
Holi, or Holli, also called the Festival of Colors, is a spring festival celebrated by Hindus, Buddhists, Sikhs and others. It is primarily observed in India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and countries with large Indic diaspora populations, such as Suriname, Guyana, South Africa, Trinidad, United Kingdom, United States, Mauritius, and Fiji.The Holi lasts sixteen days.
The main day, Holi, is celebrated by people throwing coloured powder and coloured water at each other. Bonfires are lit the day before, also known as Holika Dahan (burning of Holika) or Chhoti Holi (little Holi). The bonfires are lit in memory of the miraculous escape that young Prahlad accomplished when Demoness Holika, sister of Hiranyakashipu, carried him into the fire. Holika was burnt but Prahlad, a staunch devotee of god Vishnu, escaped without any injuries due to his unshakable devotion.
Holi is celebrated at the end of the winter season on the last full moon day of the lunar month Phalguna (February/March).

Amitabh Bachchan (born Amitabh Harivansh Bachchan on 11 October 1942), needs no introduction in India or even abroad. The man seems to hold in him a charisma that remains unrivalled. An entrepreneur, politician, game show host, a singer, voiceover artist, and an actor - the roles he played are immortalized and idolized. A huge fan base that reveres him as though he is a demi-god and a multitude of awards and recognition gravitates to him endlessly, year after year after year. He's one of the most prominent figures in the history of Indian cinema.
Bachchan has won numerous major awards in his career, including three National Film Awards and thirteen Filmfare Awards.
