Can Bollywood conquer Hollywood ?

[Kamal900]

Bollywood is culturally too alien for us, I'm afraid. It only reaches us when it's funny either intentionally or unintentionally, because then it's of a quality only an Indian can make. However, that's not enough to overtake Hollywood in popularity in the West.

In the Arab world, it isn't that alien to us especially in the Arabian peninsula since that Arabs had trade and cultural links for thousands of years, so they're more familiar to one than either of them are to the western world.

How much money did you get for it? And how did you get into the movie? Do you have any connections?

400 rs. And food. They were shooting in my town at our local fort . They need some boys who dont have typical rajasthani look and tall in height. The casting directer audition 100 boys and girls. all my brahman friends got selected. Our roles were of tourists. Our roles were silent.

Currently the second highest grossing movie of 2018 is the Chinese action flick Operation Red Sea

In top 5 there are altogether 3 Chinese films. Also as Black Panther sits at pole, the only film with White Devils in leading roles is Fifty Shades Freed. So it really looks now that there has happend a changing of guard and the world does not want to see whiteys in theaters, unless in a goofy kinky film.

China set an all-time biggest global one-month record in February with RMB 10.14 billion ($1.6 billion), calculating revenues from both local and foreign films. The record breaking number was largely attributed to the Lunar New Year holiday. The previous global monthly box office record was set in July 2011 in North America with $1.395 billion and the previous highest-grossing month in China was August 2017 with RMB 7.38 billion ($1.17 billion).[4] The highest-grossing films in China during the month were the local Chinese films Operation Red Sea, Monster Hunt 2, and Detective Chinatown 2, and the foreign Indian film Secret Superstar.[5

So, indeed Indian film seems to have a foothold in China.
It's starting to look that it could be that Bollywood and China and all the countries in between + Korea and Japan have already overtaken Hollywood and Europe in raw money This is a huuge market and is still growing FAST.
