For this week’s blog I read an article about Bollywood with a twist on it. In the article it talks about how Snoop Dogg was going to be in one of India’s upcoming movies. The Bollywood movie “Singh is Kinng” was eager to have Snoop Dogg in it and the title song was already becoming popular in India. Snoop Dogg said that he really enjoyed the Bollywood movies because they had so much music and dances in them. He was so excited to mix the Indian bhangra with his hip hop style. Karan Wadhera, the co-founder of Cashmere Asia, a new Los Angeles-Mumbai entertainment company was the one who hired Snoop Dogg to come over to India to perform. He wanted to find out more ways to introduce hip hop to India. He also said that in many of the Bollywood movies they have been trying to incorporate hip hop dance moves into their dances!
