I just realised I haven't raged at Bollywood yet, well, incoming!

Let's start with the basics...what is up with the name? Bollywood. It's pronounced as ball-y-wood. 'Ball-y' is bad enough but, 'wood'?

You know what ball-y wood looks like?


Well jokes apart. That's a pretty bad name. And it's nothing related to India either. There's no different meaning to it in Hindi or anything.

The general sequence of every romantic movie...

1. This:


But, yeah, there are a lot of ads before the movie begins.

2. One good-looking hero and heroine.

3. Either boy is rich or girl is rich. And the other is dirt poor.


4. The girl hates the guy at first,


Yet, love blossoms out of hate. (more like the guy pesters her till she loves him)


5. A father (the girl's father most of the times) opposing the relationship due to cultural differences or family feuds






and eventually sets her up with someone else a.k.a the villain.



6. Action scene between the two guys


even if not that,





OR

in a non-action movie, the heroine runs away with the hero, in a stupid manner.


7. Credits roll while they're celebrating or getting married.

8. Bloopers if it's a YRF movie.
