Bollywood is the informal term popularly used for the Hindi-language film industry based in Mumbai (formerly known as Bombay), 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 other production centers producing films in regional languages. 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. 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 (also known as Hinglish), phrases, or even whole sentences.
The name "Bollywood" is a portmanteau derived from Bombay (the former name for Mumbai) and Hollywood, the center of the American film industry. However, unlike Hollywood, Bollywood does not exist as a physical place. Though some deplore the name, arguing that it makes the industry look like a poor cousin to Hollywood, it has its own entry in the Oxford English Dictionary.

Despite being heavily hyped, his 2006 film Jaan-E-Mann failed to do well at the box office. His next release however, the 2007 film Heyy Babyy, was one of the year's biggest hits. His 2009 production Kambakkht Ishq received worldwide media attention due to the casting of American actors such as Sylvester Stallone, Denise Richards and Brandon Routh, and the initially rumored participation of Arnold Schwarzenegger. His first film of 2010, HouseFull starring Akshay Kumar, Ritesh Deshmukh, Deepika Padukone, Lara Dutta and Boman Irani was a hit. On September 30, 2010, he announced a sequel to HouseFull which would again star Akshay Kumar and be directed by Sajid Khan, who would thus complete his three-picture deal with him. His film Anjaana Anjaani released on October 1, 2010 to high expectations but turned out to be a box-office dud. His latest film Housefull 2 was a blockbuster hit on box office wich was released on April 5, 2012. He frequently casts Salman Khan and Akshay Kumar in his films, as Salman is his friend while Akshay Kumar is a childhood friend (Akshay was Sajid's junior at the Don Bosco School).

Poonam Pandey (Hindi: पूनम पांडे; born 11 March 1991) is one of the Kingfisher Calendar girls for year 2011. Poonam was the first Kingfisher Calendar girl who gave a nude image for a magazine.
She first came in the limelight when she vowed to shed all their clothes if India lifts the World Cup trophy. She follows in the footsteps of Paraguay's Larissa Riquelme and Argentinian Luciana Salazar who promised to strip if their football teams won the FIFA World Cup. Though being a bit late she did pose nude moments after the showdown of the Indian Premier League season-5. She made her debut on television as a contestant in Fear Factor - Khatron Ke Khiladi Season 4 which was hosted by Akshay Kumar.
‘Jism’ director Amit Saxena has confirmed that he will have Poonam Pandey as the female lead in his forthcoming film, which he says will be a coming of age film. Not too long ago when Pandey claimed on her Twitter account about her Bollywood debut, Saxena denied. However, now he has cleared the air. While speaking freely about the project, Amit said, “Yes, we are working together in a coming of age script. Poonam is the lead actor in the film.”
I was trippin' lookin' at my portfolio
Wonderin' how I was gonna make enough dough, you know
Called up a friend who wrote for 'One Tree Hill' and 'Jericho'
He had a job for me and check it, with a four-letter company
(Get it on, get it on)
Hey, I got a proposition for you
How 'bout you let me keep my profits as a scorer?
Record sales are shrinkin', I'm gettin' poorer
I got a kid to feed, how 'bout you cut a deal with me?
Ha, hey, look, Liz, we see you as a commodity
We've been with you since day one and that's an oddity
And after a series of phone calls to the great publishing houses
O Ursa Minor, I reached my representative who pulled out the
(Contract)
From the File Cabinet
(On microfiche)
In the form of tablets made of stone
(Then he said)
"Let me see, it's here in my folder
Oh, shit, you're twenty years older
Still hot but gettin' a lot colder
And you wanna cut a what with me?"
"Lemme tell you how it's done here in the Hollywood
Maybe you was thinkin' you was in the Bollywood
If I wanna break the rule, you know I probably could"
(C-B-S has gotta R-E-S-P-E-C-T)
(C-B-S has gotta R-E-S-P-E-C-T)
"Liz, I'd love to help you out
But we have what we call Standards & Practices"
"In legal terms, we're referring to this as a recoupable interest
In an artist's compositions on vinyl, plastic, digital
And all transmittable airwaves for a period
Of no less than six or nine years, in all territories of the Earth
The solar system and the known universe"
And I replied
"Listen here, my dear little Roni
Don't you give me no phoney-baloney
This is not 'My First Pretty Pony'
Don't you know you're fuckin' with me?"
"Oh, it's a bad day for the pool boy
Come to clean and discover you, boy
Face down and feet turnin' blue, boy
Now your eyes are closed, you finally have the sight to see"
It's all mine
It's all mine
It's all mine
