Bollywood (#9)

I read about a very famous bollywood producer and what a tru bollywood film is like. Many of their films are very wholesome and down-to-earth, what it would really be like in India. Yash Chopra, who is a veteran in the film industry in India is currently working on another one of his amazing films. He has won many awards for his films in his country and has set many of the staples in Bollywood films to what they are today. Some things which most of their films have in them are romantic plots, lavish costumes and sets, and catchy songs sung in exotic locales. Yash has produced many of his films as wholesome films with the two main characters falling in love and never kissing eachother until their wedding day and having to win over the approval of their parents for their marriage so that his films can be true to the culture in India. Bollywood films are always over the top and are very fun and entertaining to watch with all of the fun and over-the-top costumes and designs that the producers put into their films.
