I would love to work in a Bollywood film as there is so much drama and colour in the films there. — Brad Pitt
Kolkata is the relatively unexplored part of India as far as Hindi films are concerned. — Sanjay Dutt
Western films don't do very well in India. — Baz Luhrmann
Hollywood hasn't changed. It is the most racist, anti-Indian institution in the world. — Sayings
A few words of Hindi appear here or there, but it's all Urdu. I feel that if the popular culture, which is what Hindi films are, uses Urdu, it's not going to diminish. — Ismail Merchant
My films play only in Bengal, and my audience is the educated middle class in the cities and small towns. They also play in Bombay, Madras and Delhi where there is a Bengali population. — Satyajit Ray
Hollywood is tied hand and foot to the demands for artificiality of the masses all over the world. — Lionel Barrymore
The film 'Slumdog Millionaire' portrays the spirit you feel in India. For those who haven't been there, the film says it all. — Lynda Resnick
'Bombay Velvet' is my first film in a trilogy about Bombay, before it became a metropolis. — Anurag Kashyap
Except for Preity Zinta, I haven't met a single secure actress in Bollywood. — Katrina Kaif
Everything big-budget or stereotypical I was offered after 'Slumdog Millionaire' was a huge no-no. — Freida Pinto
Hrithik is the go-to guy for queries related to diet. He is great with expressions and is funny in real life. I wonder why someone hasn't cast him in a comic role yet. — Farhan Akhtar
The average Hollywood film star's ambition is to be admired by an American, courted by an Italian, married to an Englishman and have a French boyfriend. — Katharine Hepburn
Then if your movie clicks with real audiences, you'll be sucked into some sort of Hollywood orbit. It's a devil of a place where the only religion that really counts is box office. — Yahoo Serious
It's only in relatively recent years that Hollywood became the playground of multinational corporations which regard movies and TV shows as a minor irritant to their overall activity. — Peter Bart
Hollywood is in control of politics and has imported their action-filled movie scripts into the real world. — Kim Dotcom
Come on, guys, I am a computer nerd. I love Hollywood and movies. My whole life is like a movie. — Kim Dotcom
I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse. — Marlon Brando
As a child growing up in a grey-skied Yorkshire village, I would occasionally happen upon a Bollywood movie on the television. After a few minutes watching a bunch of sari-clad dancers cavorting on a Swiss mountain to tuneless music, I would switch over to some proper drama about housing estates and single mothers. — Simon Beaufoy
I hate Bollywood. The movies are all garbage, just terrible. It's my opinion; obviously, there are billions who like and love them. I don't like all the singing, dancing and all the dramatic crying. I have never seen a Bollywood film in my life. — Russell Peters
I was very sure I did not want to be the stereotype of what Indian people are seen as, which is Bollywood, and henna. That’s all great! It’s what we are, and I love it. I love saris; I love music; I love henna; I love dancing, but that’s not all we are. — Priyanka Chopra
There are cliques in Bollywood, and people stick together, but I have always tried to stick to my work. As an industry, Bollywood is very competitive, and I'm very competitive as a person, but I've never been a part of any clique, and I've always worked with all actors and directors, all camps. — Priyanka Chopra
I have been into bodies and fitness, so I am very critical about how a body should look in terms of flaunting it. I would never fall down and roll and do a cleavage shot - I have seen those in Bollywood films, and those are things I cannot tolerate. I wouldn't do that. That's not me - I'd rather look sharp and sexy and stylish just doing a walk. — Bipasha Basu
One of the things that I really love about doing a film is working with actors and the whole casting process. I feel I'm not looking for actors. I feel I'm looking for characters. If the characters come from Bollywood, fine. If they come from Indian theater, perfect. — Deepa Mehta
I saw 'Brokeback Mountain' in a packed house in Chelsea, New York, when I was filming a Bollywood film there. Chelsea, being a predominately gay neighbourhood, had the most euphoric reaction. I saw couples holding hands and crying at the end. It was the most heartening viewing I have ever been to. — Karan Johar
It was difficult in India to find an eight year old who could play a widow. The reason for that is that most of the children in India are really exposed to Bollywood. It's commercial Indian cinema which is really over the top. To find an actor, or even a non-actor, who felt natural was difficult. — Deepa Mehta
The Bollywood distribution system is so corrupt that they have trouble making money off movies. So they sell shoes that an actress stepped in. If they turned up the amps some, maybe they could sell the actresses. — Bruce Sterling
I moved to cricket at a time when I was at the peak of my career, and I can guarantee you that no one else from Bollywood would have done that. — Preity Zinta
In Bollywood, people struggle because there is a new person joining every week, who joins an assembly line of people who are very replaceable. But if you are unique, you don't have to struggle that much. — Vir Das
In a big Bollywood romantic film, taking my shirt off and spreading the hand towards the mountain with dancers behind me are not my cup of tea. — Vir Das
I don't think Bollywood is only mindless cinema, but a lot of films they churn out are not films that I completely enjoy watching. — Freida Pinto
Bollywood has got this rare quality where it dances, but it still has a depth of a sad song at the same time. It's really strange. They kind of manage to do two things at once. We do a ballad, or a dance song, and it's very difficult. They kind of mix those two things together. It's pretty impressive, beautiful music. — Patrick Watson
Bollywood directors are like cricketers where in one match you score a century, and in the next match, you are out for a duck! Moreover, very few directors are consistent in Bollywood. — Sunny Deol
Our Bollywood stars who talk of being part of 100 crore films, I think I belong to the 1,000 crore club. — Irrfan Khan
I am a huge fan of Bollywood movies. Whenever I get time, I enjoy watching Hindi movies. Cooking really interests me, so I also experiment with food in my free time. — Satnam Singh Bhamara
I wish I was dating one of the ladies in 'Bollywood Hero.' They're gorgeous. Any of them. — Chris Kattan
Before ever meeting Priyanka Chopra, I had heard her name coming out of Bollywood and was impressed: she was beautiful, talented, had made nearly 50 movies, earned multiple awards - a massive star. — Dwayne Johnson
I will definitely continue to do Bollywood because that is my thing and I can't not do it - I have to do the singing and the dancing because it is so much fun. But I would like to explore my opportunities in the West, so we will have to wait and see. — Tena Desae
I am greedy for both Hollywood and Bollywood. For me, Bollywood is not new, as it is something that I grow up on... I know the plot... stories and characters that are written and made. I haven't got the right opportunity to show my work in Bollywood. — Tena Desae
Music, for me, is vital. Punjabi, Bollywood, Sufi, RnB... I listen to it all. When I'm not listening to music, you will find me chatting with friends. Off the field, I just let my instincts take over. I certainly don't think about batting, or which bowlers I'm going to face. — Virat Kohli
I am very happy playing and showing off my talent on the cricket field and have no plans to enter Bollywood. — Virat Kohli
I'm trying to strike a balance between Bollywood and Hollywood. — Irrfan Khan
I liked Bollywood a lot growing up; I just liked the idea of seeing people that looked like me on a big screen, that alone just does so much for confidence. I'm a super visual person, I need to see something before I do it. — Himanshu Suri
I used to get upset with the word Bollywood, and what it means in the West. The stereotype of us being dancing, singing, puppet showgirls. Indians are nearly one fifth of the world's population; we have one of the most prolific film industries in the world. When people used to ask me about it, or replicate what they think is Bollywood dancing, thinking that they're being funny, I used to get offended. But now I show them the stuff we do. — Priyanka Chopra
I did not want to be the stereotype of either Bollywood or what Indian actors are usually offered. The exotic, beautiful girl, or the academically inclined nerd. And I wanted to play a lead... I didn't settle for less. — Priyanka Chopra
I've chosen films that are different compared to the conventional Bollywood films we all know and love. — Hrithik Roshan
If you look good, you can act in a Bollywood movie, you don't have to be able to act; and Aishwarya Rai is a great example of this. She is a beautiful woman... You look at her, I want to look at her. Damn, she is fine; but stop acting or stop trying to act. — Russell Peters
I wouldn't want to do a Bollywood film per se, but I would like to do an Indian-language film. For some reason I think Bollywood has become synonymous with commercial cinema, which is song and dance and everything that is larger than life, and I am interested in the reality. — Freida Pinto
Films with female protagonists don't attract many eyeballs. Most of them are perceived as feminist films. If Bollywood starts giving women major roles in entertaining movies, then the audience, too, will open up to the idea of watching commercial films in which the actresses do more than just play the role of the hero's love interest. — Bipasha Basu
If Hollywood and Bollywood were how we all lived our lives, that would surprise me. And yet it's often the way our cultures are conveyed, isn't it? — Hillary Clinton
I've love the challenge of doing something new. Bollywood is magical. — Indira Varma
