iTunes Meets Bollywood

If you had any doubts about it being a very Bollywood moment — after Slumdog Millionaire won 10 Academy Awards and even the Pussycat Dolls got a themed “global goddess” makeover and pop song — this faux iTunes ad uploaded on youtube by Bollywood Hipster is the tipping point.

The mix of ancient and modern Indian dance styles is set to the themes song from movie Bachna Ae Haseeno.

Namaste to CoM reader Tina Singh for the tip.

In our intensely Politically Correct age, should “Bollywood” become “Mollywood”, since we are no longer allowed to “Bombay”?
Let’s also ban Munich, Venice, Vienna while we’re at it?

Bombay, Calcutta and Madras are the names that the British gave to the original names of these cities in India, just like Munich, Venice, Vienna etc. are the English Language corruptions of these cities correct names.
