ANJALI & THE KID SISTER PRESENT: BOLLYWOOD BIKE IN at Q Center

Bollywood is the name given to the Hindi-language film industry in India. When combined with other Indian film industries, it is considered to be the largest in the world in terms of number of films produced, and maybe also the number of tickets sold. Bollywood films are usually musicals. Few movies are made without at least one song-and-dance number. Indian audiences expect full value for their money; they want songs and dances, love interest, comedy and dare-devil thrills, all mixed up in a three hour long extravaganza with intermission.

Q Center’s will play host to an outdoor Bollywood movie series. Yes, outdoors, meaning the movies will be projected onto the side of the building in the Q Center parking lot.

Bring your blankets, chairs & pillows to our Bollywood Bike In!
