520 Here is a true story of Bollywood, a sweeping portrait of
a country finding its identity, a movie industry that
changed the face of India, and one man's struggle to
become a star. Shah Rukh Khan's larger-than-life tale
takes us through the colorful and idiosyncratic Bollywood
movie industry, where fantastic dreams and outrageous
obsessions share the spotlight with extortion, murder, and
corruption. Khan broke into this $1.5 billion business
despite the fact that it has always been controlled by a
handful of legendary film families and sometimes funded by
black market money. As a Muslim in a Hindu majority nation,
exulting in classic Indian cultural values, Khan has come
to embody the aspirations and contradictions of a
complicated culture tumbling headlong into American style
capitalism. His story is a mirror to the greater Indian
story and the underbelly of the culture of Bollywood.--
