Bollywood is the informal term popularly used for the Hindi-language film industry based in Mumbai, Maharashtra, India. The term is often incorrectly used to refer to the whole of Indian cinema; it is only a part of the total Indian film industry, which includes several regional film industries sorted by language. Bollywood is the largest film producer in India and one of the largest centers of film production in the world.

Bollywood is formally referred to as Hindi cinema, though frequent use of poetic Urdu words is fairly common. There has been a growing presence of Indian English in dialogue and songs as well. It is common to see films that feature dialogue with English words phrases, or even whole sentences.

A. You bring up interesting points. But Hindi films are made as entertainers. Movies that have more of a message and/or more complex story lines are, by and large, are considered "parallel" films (what we would call independent films in the U.S.). Hindi films, now days, are made to what the public wants to see: "masala" films...a mixture of action, singing, dancing, and romance. Movies with a message, such as "My Brother...Nikhil" or "Three Walls" don't do well at the box office. But there have been some really good movies made recently with good messages. Movie like "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi," "Billu," & "Taare Zameen Par".

What is the difference between Bollywood and Tollywood?
Q. I just wondered. We were watched Asian Variety Show and they were showing Tollywood music videos and films instead of the usual Bollywood. No rude comments please. Thanks! Thank all of you for answering. I appreciate it. And they don't copy Hollywood. Only in the name do they do that. I like they're movies and things better than Hollywood's personally, just because its more interesting and I live in the US. Thanks to all of you!
