Bollywood Bhelpuri - Diary of a wide eyed movie connoisseur (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu
Reviews
Description
Bollywood films have always been called masala movies since the 1970s as they mix several genres like romance, action, comedy, drama, and thriller in one, just like in the spicy Bhelpuri, the puffed rice snack dipped in various sauces and spices, famous especially in Mumbai. This is what makes them unique and magical and every Indian has grown upon them.
I have loved reading film magazines secretly and wide-eyed as a kid and my love for all things Bollywood never quite stopped even in my medical college years and beyond. The little pieces I wrote after watching movies for family and friends needed a larger sharing; hence, it has come in the form of this light and frothy book which takes you through a ride of impressions of Bollywood movies through the 1970s to 2020s, through single screens to OTT platforms-the times and techniques may have changed, but the heart still remains of a "movie connoisseur"!
The world would indeed be a better place if we discussed more movies!
