Bollywood by Nicolas R Bradley
Every single day of the year, Bombay, the capital of the Hindi Film industry, draws in thousands of hopefuls in search of a job. Alongside the vast numbers officially employed in a film's production, such as actors, actresses, composers, producers and choreographers, is another larger group of individuals involved with all the non-glamorous aspects of the industry, such as labourers, cleaners, canteen workers and guards. "Bollywood: Behind the Scenes, Beyond the Stars" celebrates the Bombay film industry, shedding light on what goes on silently behind the scenes. It offers a glimpse into the lives and work of some of Bollywood's biggest stars and pays tribute to the city of mystifying contradiction that lies beyond the studio gates. The book features interviews with famous industry producers and cinematographers, including Keshu Ramsay, Barun Mukherjee and Sunil Patel, as well as specially commissioned photographs, shot on location with famous actors and actresses, including, Vivek Oberoi, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Hema Malini and Katrina Kaif.
On average, 150 - 200 films pour out of Bombay every year, out of a total of around 800 films per year, making India's film industry the biggest in the world
