    Saawariya - Bollywood - Studios - Movies - New York Times

    Hmm, I don't know about this. I don't see a need for Hollywood to start making films in India - I think the Indian studios are doing just fine. It would be cool if Hollywood was bringing more Bollywood to the US!

    Quoted: The studio behind the forthcoming “Saawariya,” Sony Pictures Entertainment, is the first in a wave of American studios to produce their own Bollywood musicals.

    Guru (2007)

    This film (based on the life of Reliance founder Dirubhai Ambani) did a good job of showing the problematic interplay between business, the press, and government in 1980s India. I also don't think it was a clear-cut ode to capitalism either. Had its annoying moments, but amazing performance by Abhishek Bachchan and another good AR Rahman score!

    Quoted: A villager, Gurukant Desai, arrives in Bombay 1958, and rises from its streets to become the GURU, the biggest tycoon in Indian history.
