Struck
with the glamour and riches of India's film city, thousands of aspiring
actors come to Bombay every year. Only a handful will be successful but
that does not keep the majority of would-be stars away. |
Taking
full advantage of this migration, numerous acting academie and acting schools
have sprung up alongside the film industry.Bombay's acting schools teach
many invaluable lessons in the art of acting. Fights and action scenes
are an essential ingredient in any Indian blockbuster film.
Newcomers
who want to get into the industry are prepared to pay up to $800 to learn
such techniques. For most however the dream never materialises, but that
doesn't stop hopefuls coming from all over India. The stars are hero-worshipped.
Often they are elevated to cult status and it is their popularity which
ensures big takings at the box-office.
