If you don't edit me to properly reflect the facts, you'll have a Yank cultural imperialist's view of Indian pop culture.
Music
- Ainvayi Ainvayi (from Band Baaja Baaraat)
- Kehna Hi Kya (from Bombay) A.R. Rahman
- Rakkamma Kaiya Thattu (from Thalapathi) Ilaiyaraaja
- San Sanana (from Asoka) Get your Bollywood Dance groove on
Movies
- Amal (IMDb) Can't get this through Netflix, but Oak liked it, so hey.
- Asoka (2001) (IMDb) "Total trash" according to kmkale. I included this because this is what I'd term a classic epic Bollywood film. It has Shah Rukh Khan, which of course makes it worth watching just there. :P
- Dhobi Ghat (Mumbai Diaries) (2010) (IMDb ) Definitely a chick flick. Sod off.
- Raajneeti (2010) (IMDb ) It's Washington, only it's not! Very violent, but watchable in a trainwreck sort of way.
- Slumdog Millionaire (2008) (IMDb ) Lots of hype round this one, and it's got 8 Oscars to show for it.
- Swades (2004) (IMDb ) Follows SRK once again as a "non returning Indian."
Books
The Mahabharata (from Brown)
Web Links
Television Series
- The Story of India (at PBS) If it's written by the British, it is surely neutral. ;)
- Gordon's Great Escape, Series 1 ([1] at BBC America) Watch it if only to see him brought to tears for having zero heat tolerance.
