When I started off with 'Dance India Dance,' even the TV show people thought it won't be accepted. But with the talent that the show received, I was able to personally tutor dancers to amalgamate contemporary dance moves on Bollywood tracks.

I don't know too much about Bollywood at all, but I've done quite a bit of dancing... and not much singing.

People talk about Bollywood being very kitsch, and just songs and dances, and over the top and colorful.

Ironically, I grew up watching Indian movies as a kid in Russia. I am quite familiar with Bollywood. I grew up watching 'Disco Dancer;' I watched it some 20 times as a kid.

I used to dance when I was younger - ballet and modern dance.

I'm fascinated by Bollywood.

I wouldn't want to do a Bollywood film per se, but I would like to do an Indian-language film. For some reason I think Bollywood has become synonymous with commercial cinema, which is song and dance and everything that is larger than life, and I am interested in the reality.

I must say, I was a very filmy kid. I used to watch a lot of TV and get very influenced by Bollywood.

Conventional Indian cinema is about people falling in love. They sing, they dance.

Bollywood is a strange world.
