She said, “That’s what annoys me so much. When I was working in India, I never realised that out here, Bollywood is reduced to just a genre when it’s not that. It’s actually an entire industry of movies which does action, drama, romance, everything. And Bollywood is not even a place, but Hollywood is! At Trader Joe’s, I saw Bollywood flavoured popcorn. How do you put a flavour to an entire industry? What would Hollywood’s flavour be? What’s annoying is that it gets reduced to a stereotype. Not all Bollywood movies have people breaking out dancing for no reason. Music does play an integral part of our films.” Brownie points to our desi girl for this one!
