Book excerpt: MERE PAAS...BOLLYWOOD TRIVIA HAI!The Indian cine-goer’s fascination for Bollywood is unending – and then there are those who really like to get their elbows into it dum lagaa ke! Which is why this book, stuffed with super-gyaan (yes, there is a science to the movies as well!) and sprinkled with quirky illustrations is a must-have for anyone in love with or just plain confused by all that goes on in Bollywood. Among the many masaaledar nuggets it features are:• The rulebook on how to plan a filmi elopement; • Fifteen jailers who terrorized prisoners (and the jailbreaks that had wardens quaking at the knees);• Colourful stories that reveal why people get drunk in the movies; • Ten on-screen detectives who had crime on their minds, even if they could never solve them; • Three ways suhaag raats unfold *cough* in Hindi cinema.And there’s much more! From tragedy and mystery to heartbreak and victory – Bollygeek opens up the obsessive, compulsive and addictive world of Hindi cinema like never before. You don’t want to miss out on this one!
