Bollywood Movies Coming to ACL

Bollywood is a term that refers to the Hindi-language film industry based in the Indian city of Mumbai, which used to be called Bombay. Bombay + Hollywood = Bollywood. The term is believed to have been coined by a journalist in the 1970s. Most Bollywood films include musical numbers. Today’s movies generally have fewer musical numbers than older films. While 10 musical numbers in a film wasn’t unusual in the past, four to six are more typical today. And more and more Bollywood movies don’t have any musical numbers at all.

Abington Community Library is pleased to have purchased a wide variety of Bollywood films for our patrons to enjoy! Stop by and pick up a title soon.
