    When it comes to India's image abroad, that is.

    Having seen clips of recent Bollywood films and music videos, it has certainly changed my image of India, to a certain extent. Not least as someone who grew up in a city with lots of people of Indian descent, I used to think of Indian society as overwhelmingly prudish and conservative (at least with a small 'c', if not necessarily a large one). Nowadays, however, Bollywood rivals if not possibly exceeds even Hollywood in terms of sensuality and semi-nudity.

    It’s a terrible representation of everything. I remember the first time I went there how different it was from the movies. Felt like a different universe altogether.
