Bollywood -- the Hollywood of Bombay, home to India's major film studios --
has long been one of the largest movie industries in the world and is
especially famous for the "masala film," a spectacular mixture of song,
dance, comedy, and action. The dream factories in Bombay used to churn out
hundreds of films a year, but Devdas is a prime example of what has been
called a "New Bollywood," sometimes accused of being too much like
Hollywood, featuring rigid production schedules, greater technical expertise
from filmmakers trained in music videos and TV, and bigger budgets.
