Chances are, he won't be doing any more films.

... Bride and Prejudice wasn't *too* bad ... but then I'm no fan of Bollywood.
... You should see the garbage on TV, or the so-called "vernacular" movies made
... in Telugu or Kannada with wooden sets and wooden actors.

B&P! I won't thank you for reminding me of its name! ;)

... Actually, the dancing bugs me generally, which puts me at a disadvantage in
... appreciating modern Indian movies. I'll make an exception for
... "Salaam-e-Ishq" - that was outstanding by any cultural measure.

Tell me more.
