Yeah, it pretty much has EVERYTHING to do with you thinking you can get into bollywood just because you think you can.

Let's recap for a moment... you want to get into bollywood but u:
  • were born and raised in the US, buti think i can make it big in india as an actor and bring some good acting to india
  • don't watch bollywood movies, or listen to that music
  • look a lot better than most indian actors
  • can dance well, maybe not indian dancing but that's not that hard to learn, and most indian actors don't sing, but i can lip sing pretty good
    my only deficit is that i don't speak any language, but i could pick that up within a few months -- WTH!!?!?!
  • dance, i can't sing (like i said, most indian actor's and actresses don't sing anyways), i can't speak hindi except for a few words, but i do know a decent bit about the culture and religion, in addition to my looks
  • haven't done any theatre per say, but i feel like i could do a decent enough job now without any prior experience
    and of course i would take acting lessons to refine any skill if i do have it to begin with


If you aren't high or drunk right now, then Darwinism has just failed.

Your 'Hindi' accent may sound authentic to you and to some ignorant Americans, but no doubt it will be recognized as a sorry-ass poor attempt by the Indian society. Furthermore, most Bollywood movies are in Hindi not in English with Hindi accents. If you are that Handsome and such a good dancer maybe you should try Hollywood.
BTW :camera:'s???

phew, nice to know your a woman, hahaha. thanks for the compliment, but the reason why you say i look too american is cuz i'm wearing my street clothes, that's how i normally dress

but when i wear my indian outfits (which i haven't for some years now), i look pretty indian in them, albeit non-indian because of my style, and how i wear my clothes

not sure if you were serious about the whole president thing so here's my take on it.
before there can be an indian president there will be black presidents...lots of them. and the powers that be in the office are racist enough as it is which is why you haven't really seen a black president in the history of this country and if our country maintains its status quo then i doubt we will see one anytime soon.
if you were being sarcastic then im sorry i didn't pick up on the sarcasm.

well i would like to become president because i feel like i could solve the world's problems, but i often joke in a serious manner that i'd be assasinated before becoming president because i'd be too clean

that's what i would strive to accomplish, but in reality, it may not happen so i make concessions to have a regular life as well

ROFLMAO!!

Is this guy for real?

So you think you can act in a country where you don't know the native language, don't know how to act, think you can become president of USA and solve all the world's problems?

Sh!t, at least make it somewhat believable.

For all that is good and holy, I hope he is just joking about this stuff.
