Move page to Indian cinema tourism
[edit]This would be much better and would be all encompassing of the Indian cinema industry, featuring Bollywood, Pollywood, Mollywood, Tollywood, and Sandalwood. Globetrotter30 (talk) 15:15, 4 April 2026 (UTC)
- I support the name change if the article will indeed encompass these other languages of Indian cinema in a meaningful way. Ikan Kekek (talk) 15:46, 4 April 2026 (UTC)
When I was in India, 1975, this film was quite popular. The plot revolves around a young Indian woman corrupted by hippies; people I met had been extras in the parts filmed in Rishikesh. Since my wife & I looked like hippies, kids would sing the show's theme song at us; the message seemed to be "We know what you're up to".
I do not know if it matters today. Pashley (talk) 15:56, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
Pakistan & Urdu
[edit]My understanding is that Bollywood films are popular both in Pakistan & among the Pakistani diaspora, because the spoken forms of Hindi & Urdu are very close. Is that correct? Should it be mentioned in the article?
What about Bangladesh? Do many there speak Urdu? Is there a Bengali film industry? Pashley (talk) 16:26, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
Tollywood?
[edit]The article has " Tollywood (Telugu cinema)" but w:Cinema of West Bengal has "The origin of the nickname "Tollywood"—a portmanteau of the words Tollygunge and Hollywood—dates back to 1932." Pashley (talk) 23:15, 5 April 2026 (UTC)
