Re: Bollywood and the Indian Muslims
while that is true jamroll, you also have to remember that alot of script writers are themselves urdu poets or urdu novelists themselves from northern india. plus the type of hindi spoken in northern india, such as u.p., is more like urdu, then in the rest of india.
and the first bollwood movies were in fact made by muslims. which is why you see alot of muslim culture on display in older movies.
most bollywood movies are targetted for the state of uttar pradesh (or if you wanna calll it united provinces) which is india's largest state, at over 100 million people living there.
