I used to work at an art-house movie theatre that showed Bollywood films once a month, and we always did sellout business. I mentioned this to a friend, and he said, "So I guess you're now selling samosas along with the popcorn?" As a matter of fact, we were. There’s a good-sized Indian contingent here in Utah as well.

(They do not, in case you were wondering, mention nipples or hookers or anything else, either.)

My reaction was similar: Ah yes, India, fascinating blend of the ancient and modern.... And you're telling me that's <i>Houston?!</i> If you're shooting a Bollywood film, how do you keep production costs down by making a 10,000-mile detour to Texas? Wow, Angie.

We really must get this border security thing straightened out. This is easily the funniest music video since the one where Christopher Walken dances around the Marriott in downtown LA.

So, I'm watching them in the first part, where they're on a beautiful skyscraper, and I think, man, some day I want to go to India and see that beautiful skyscraper. I also note the gray yet cloudless sky -- an artifact of the notoriously torrid Indian climate. So, later on they're writhing around in a fountain, and I think, hey, wait a damn minute: that's here! And, yes, it's <a href="http://photohome.com/photos/texas-pictures/houston/tranquility-park-1.html" rel="nofollow">Tranquility Park.</a> And the beautiful skyscraper soaring into the exotic Indian sky? <a href="http://www.emporis.com/en/wm/bu/?id=nielsespersonbuilding-houston-tx-usa" rel="nofollow">The Niels Esperson Building.</a> Dayam. Anyhow, I guess the story of the dance is that even the hot-eyed heroine and her dozen dancing sisters cannot turn Orbison Belushi Goldblum straight. Yeah, very amusing, OK.

None of the other languages seem to have so many. It would be interesting if someone would take a popular english song, do a "Bollywood" to it TO ANOTHER LANGUAGE, and then translate the Bollywood wording into english so we english-speakers can see how gibberish-y it is.
