The impact of Bollywood in Hollywood continues to grow

Bollywood is the term given to the Hindi films that are produced in Mumbai, India. It is a combination of Bombay, which was to be called Mumbai, and Hollywood. For years, the Bollywood film largely ignored by the rest of the world outside of India and neighboring countries, but this is simply not true anymore. The impact of Bollywood in Hollywood and other countries, which makes the film is now very strong, so that could no longer be denied or ignored.

for years, the Indian government banned banks and other large investors to pump money into the film-making process, claiming it's not a real industry. Some aspiring filmmakers who were lucky enough to be some of the money will fund its own, but this was not an option for most. Instead, they are looking toward small investors, which means that in some cases using the money a crime syndicate of underground gangs. Use the money to finance movies mob gave Bollywood a bad reputation, which is why so many in the Western world completely rejected the industry for many years.

In 00, the Indian government recently lifted a ban on banks to lend money for films and film-making recognized as an industry viable. But it did not happen overnight, but, after several months, he began some of the biggest investment banks in the industry, Bollywood, which allows to distance itself from the illegal funds. When this happened, I began to more films and production, sales and ticket revenue fire on billions of dollars each year. Hollywood began to take notice, since some of the filmmakers began very impressive to say how last Bollywood films have influenced their mainstream movies.

one of the most famous claim Bollywood influence of directors is the Australian film director Baz Luhrmann, who gained fame for the "Moulin Rouge" in 01. The music was successful violently, and influenced by the song and dance numbers that permeate Bollywood films. The "Moulin Rouge" This is a blow it paid a renaissance of sorts in Hollywood musical plays. In the next few years, all musicals such adjustment winning an Oscar for "Chicago" was made, and "Phantom of the Opera," "Rent," and "producers" in the mainstream cinema that got the big box office revenues. "Moulin Rouge" was credited widely with stimulating the musical awakening, with Bollywood being a source of inspiration to bring musicals to the role of Western cinema. This is arguably the biggest Bollywood has made a contribution to the film industry.

Bollywood has also a significant impact on the financial aspect of the film industry. Once the Indian government allowed banks to finance films, he saw executives of banks how profitable these movies can be. With low production costs and high ticket sales, and the profit margin it was through the roof in many films, and bankers acknowledged the potential of this industry. Soon, they began to invest not only in Bollywood, but in Hollywood as well. Earned the director M. Night Shyamalan, an Indian native who grew up in the United States, nearly half of the funding for "The Happening" from Indian banks. It can easily be made that kind of deal with the other directors who are willing to take the unconventional route to get their films financed. This type of arrangement would not have happened unless the potential of Indian banks have seen in the film by Bollywood.

Since money is the bottom line for a lot of executives in Hollywood, has been paying close attention over the years to the disparity between the sales ticket to Bollywood movies compared to Hollywood movies. In an average year, Bollywood films sell about 3.6 billion tickets, while Hollywood sells only 2.6 billion. It is certain that the price of tickets Hollywood is higher, so higher income from it too much. The average cost of a film produced in the United States about $ 50 million, while the average Indian film has a cost of only $ 1.5 million. With such a high margin of profit, and executives film in other countries clamor to see how we can reduce costs on their movies and selling more tickets billion each year, such as Bollywood does.

between musical productions, and changes in funding, and a large audience, still Bollywood's influence on the rest of the world film-making, especially in Hollywood, to grow. It remains to be seen whether more filmmakers will do what he did Shyamalan participated in the financing of film projects in the future with money from Indian investors. Films like "Iron Man 3" are already getting half of its funding from China, so it can only be a matter of time before that India is in the mix often. If this does not happen, then the impact on the Bollywood film industry may very well be complete.
