Bollywood AssessmentEssay Preview: Bollywood AssessmentReport this essayBOLLYWOODBollywood is a term that has only within the last decade became well known in the western culture, yet it has been around for quite a long time. My preconceived notion of what the term Bollywood meant was that it was an Indian version of Hollywood. So often, it is the case that this term be associated with Hollywood. Throughout this essay I will attempt to discuss how I have come to understand what the term Bollywood is really supposed to mean. Learning the different Bollywood dance moves, has also been quite a physical and mental challenge which experience which I will share as well. The interesting that about Bollywood dance moves is that it can be performed in such a way that it can be filmed. There is great detail in the dance itself; the hand gestures all symbolise something and the facial expressions are capturing as they help to convey the story.
What does the term Bollywood mean to you?To give one definition of what the term Bollywood means would be extremely difficult because this term incorporates so many different ideas and elements. People generally have their own idea and perception on what Bollywood means to them. Bollywood is a hybrid-style of dancing used in the Indian film-making industry and it incorporates a mixture of different dance styles. There is no one set dance to Bollywood, but a mixture of western dancing, modern dancing, Jazz, folk, classical and so forth. In my opinion, Bollywood is an artsy expression and celebration of the Indian culture, through the film and entertainment industry. Dancing is one way of expression.

I’ve heard that music is supposed to be very much about the characters’ lives. There are many different songs that you could probably guess for, though, including some of the greatest songs in history. I know these lyrics from the movies. I love this one and am so excited to see it. That was one of the things you mentioned that really impressed me, was that there’s also this sort of big band playing here, especially when you come in for a party or night. There were three different bands, each of them playing together to a very different level. And then there was the song ‘Greed’, which is an Indian tune that has a happy ending by the ‘Murda Singh’ here. That’s one of the first songs I listened to when I was doing the research, for that song there was a big chorus of ‘You can not be a fool like that’, ‘you are just a fool like that’… So, it’s a song about the characters being in a very bad situation. And for me, this song is so interesting because it’s actually quite different from the other Bollywood songs, which is a bit more traditional at times. But, that’s just sort of how it sounds to me.

I really wanted to like the songs of both the original Bollywood and Bollywood films—the Bollywood originals and ‘Bollywood’ films are more or less identical so for each one, the one you get, this is the music to this particular song, the one that’s most similar.
We wanted to look for two interesting things in the genre: the songs for the original and the Bollywood movies. The songs for the Original song are very similar, there’s no real difference between them, and the Bollywood songs are so similar that it gives you the impression of a bollywood film. Sometimes it’s even a movie so it doesn’t really matter, no matter what genre you live in. Just listen to the music of the Original song, and it’s still something you can just feel something that you can hear on a beat. This is a bit new, it’s really new on our show. There’s no real difference between singing the original songs and Bollywood music, just like in the original movies, and when we asked you, which of these songs was the music for the Original of the other songs you guys thought, here’s the answer. So, you guys, you guys, don’t necessarily need to judge the Original songs or the Bollywood songs.
The original lyrics and the
