I recently saw Krrish, a lightweight superhero movie. I really enjoyed it, even with the singing and dancing. Actually, I'm embarrassed to admit it, but I kinda liked the music. And the gal is smoking. Great chemistry between the lead actors. Definitely recommended.

Check out this clip for a typical musical number:

If you dig that, here's some more clips:

I don't know. I'm not sure it will appeal to everyone, but it really struck me.

What kind of Bollywood? Though most follow the same formula there have been some recent "adult" types of films such as Ghajini and a few years ago, The Company.

Ghajini broke a lot of Indian box office records this year. Basically a Bollywood version of Memento.

A recent comedy which was quite popular was Dostana but I'm sure it's a remake of that film which had Kevin James/Adam Sandler pretending to be in a gay marriage.

I used to see all of them for work, among them this year I've seen:

Chandni Chowk To China (weird bollywood kung fu)
Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (SRK film, cheesy but fun)
Bachna Ae Haseeno (08)
Race (08)
Tashan (08)

I've got a Bollywood sequel to Silence of the Lambs at home. I haven't summoned up the courage to watch it yet though. Maybe I should give that a try this weekend.
