Bollywood Movies of The Year: English Vinglish (Part One)

Bollywood industries is one of the biggest entertainment industry these days, since early 60's. Bollywood is formally referred as Hindi Cinema, which referred as a film industry based on Mumbai, India. Since late 90's, movies such as Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) and Satya (1998) being one of the most succesful movies. As Bollywood increased its popularity on early 2000, Malaysia is one of the country that is aware of Bollywood popularity and during that period, I can see that most Malaysians are very influenced by the Bollywood movies, Dialogues, and Songs from popular movies such as Lagaan (2001), Devdas (2002), Koi... Mil Gaya (2003), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003).

I was one of the big fans of Bollywood at that time. I even dance a Bollywood song when I was 8 during a Gifting Ceremony for excellent students back in my elementary school XD (Kuch Kuch Hota Hai- Badi Anjaani Hai) Here is the link of the song .










I dont remember much popular movies since 2007 because I was focusing on other things at that time. I do remember Om Shanti Om (2007) and Ghajini (2008), but since that I dont even know other movies until I watched 3 Idiots (2009), one of the most succesful Hindi Movies at that time.( I watched the movie on 2012 after I finished my school). This movie really give me a hint that not every Bollywood movies are focused about modern love between two person. (Sincerely I don't favor that sweet-romantic movies after when reach 15) This story is about the life of students in an engineering college give me inspiration to be more hardworking and more sophisticated in what I want to achieve in my life.


And another movie just caught my attention this year. English Vinglish which was launched on 14th June 2012 in YouTube. This movie is mainly about a housewife named Shashi Godbole starred by Sridevi (a legendary Bollywood actor which makes her comeback after 15 years in Hindi Film industry) who is being ridiculed by her family because of her poor English. As she got a chance to fly to New York to help her sister's daughter wedding, She takes the opportunity to learn English secretly in a small tuition class without the knowledge of her family. Here is one of the official trailer of the movie.
