baliwood

The equivalent of our Hollywood, California in India. Movies in India are a big business and tend to have much singing and dancing in their plot lines.

Radeesh Basra is the "Vinny Deisel" of Baliwood. I heard he cops mad blow from Panjabi MC

baliwood

Often spelled Bollywood... The Indian entertainment industry; the name is meant to imitate Hollywood. Most of the movies and performances are very musical.

Dude! Let's watch Channel 28 again so we can see that hot chick that always leads dances in the Bollywood movies!

baliwood

A level of Hollywood fame in which the "ballers" "ball" and the "shot callers" "call." In other words, Baliwood is a state of popularity for the celebrities who appeal to the younger crowd.

"Yo, I'm 'bout to hit up this record deal, then I'ma be straight Baliwood!"

A lot of terrible movies come out of Baliwood.

baliwood

A take off of "hollywood", a non-derogatory term that refers to the movie-making machine that is India.

Any movie coming out of India may be described as coming from Baliwood, but Indian films seem to have a couple things in common - elaborate sets and costumes, and musical number.

Watch the Simpson's episode where Apu shows the Simpsons a film from India, and you'll get an idea of Baliwood.
