New Delhi: What's not to love about Indian films? There's usually singing, dancing and lots of emotion. What's not to love about Indian weddings? There's often singing, dancing and lots of emotion. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that our film industries - Bollywood and otherwise - and weddings have a lot in common. So, our films often include big, fat Indian wedding sequences and a staple at most weddings these days is the sangeet function - where the bride, groom, their family and friends put on a song-and-dance show that would put many Bollywood productions to shame.
