Bollywood,Ubiquitous!!!!!

Today is the day I'll remember throughout my life.A certain happening changed my perception of Bollywood today.

The story goes like this-
I wanted to get some printouts of my CV ,So I went to a nearby cyber cafe. There in my not so good, french I started to explain the guy what I wanted.I din't knew what I was saying in french but as I new word for printer in french I started to explain and to my amazement the guy understood.So I got the printouts and just to make an interaction I start to talk to that guy.I found out that he was from Morocco, and came to france long time back.I told him that I'm from India and then the lightening struck.When he came to know that I was Indian he asked me did I knew Salman Khan.Oh brother!!! This is crazy,amazing,out of the world,F---ing crazy.How did he knew about Indian actor.Now you can accept that a guy from UK or USA or China or Russia or some country of latin America talking about Indian actor but a guy in France and that also a Moroccan guy.How could he know about salman Khan.He doesn't understand Hindi,nor English how could he? I was searching for an explanation in my mind but was unable to find one so out of curosity I asked him how he knew about salman.He answered he accidentally watched an Indian movie in an Indian restaurant in France in which salman was hero and he started liking him.

After this incident I have come to belief that acting and passion knows no language.Although the guy doesn't knows Hindi it's his passion and liking of Salman that he likes to watch him.

  1. Moreover, Bollywood is very Famous in Morocco. It may sound surprising but some moroccan kids know Sharukhan way better than any moroccan actor. Culture has no boundaries ;)
