 Thank God I exist in the year 2002 where a huge change of though is coming into action with regards to Asian and Western 'amalgamations'.
Firstly before I elaborate further on that note, let me once again congratulate the website in their presentation of Bollywood.
I have to say the website has been even more enjoyable from my angle due to the excellent reviews which are accurate and amusing provided by Manish Gajjar. . . . where did you find such a jewel?
Scanning the pages for ideas as to what to go and see in the cinema I was very impressed by 'Devdas' which was just as I imagined it would be. Manish's review prompted my trip to see what was truly the best film I have seen so far in terms of costumes, music and astounding imagery!
And through reading Manish's reviews I would quite like to see 'The Legend Of Bhagat Singh' and 'Om Jai Jagadish' which sound very good as well.
But let me transgress again! Speaking as an Asian raised in this country it is very satisfying to see that Asian culture is becoming incorporated in Western life. 'Bombay Dreams', a classic example of great historical 'change/movement' about to take place on a theatrical setting, is a production which I really didn't expect to see emerge onto the stage.
Now with involvement of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Meera Syal whom I adore I hope we will witness a real integration and birth of a new 'art' form. Time will tell.
Until then I will be scanning the website when I can discover what's new in Bollywood and what's recommended by your own 'jewel in the crown' Manish Gajjar!

 Firstly I would like to congratulate you for doing such a fabulous job in terms of promoting Indian movies. I am big fan of your website.
Funny enough but Graham (my husband) has taken a keen interest with regards to your website. I have actually caught him many a times logging on to find out the latest information on Bollywood.
Unlike other Bollywood sites; he finds the material displayed on your site very clear, concise and easy to understand. At least now he can share his views on Bollywood with all his Asian colleagues at work! Since you have attracted us to the world of Bollywood; we are hoping to see some of the movies reviewed on your website.
If you don't mind me saying; I have one major complaint about your site. Why does it take so long to update all the sections? Please can you update more frequently so that I can tell my friends about the latest news and reviews before they tell me! Keep up the good work Mr Gajjar! Awaiting to log onto your website again.
Mr & Mrs Graham Pocock. Yorkshire

 Hello Manish, Many thanks for inviting us at UCI Telford to see Sanjay Leela Bhansali's magnus opus, 'Devdas'. Anne and myself thoroughly enjoyed the Bollywood experience.
