Underworld and Bollywood....

Mumbai- "The city of golden dreams". Anyone, who is famous here, lives under the shadow of the "Underworld". Underworld includes; Mafias, shooters and smugglers. Underworld and Dreamworld- in reality they are reflections of each other.Some of this has to do with the nature of film financing. Most Bollywood productions do not get bank loans, they are funded privately. The banks do not understand or trust bollywood because banks are driven by logics not by  emotions and sentiments. The time between the investment and the return can be years if the film does not do well. Who would have the big amount of cash lying around? Only the underworld. The underworld is very happy to see the black money turn into technicolour dreams. Film makers sell dreams which are financed by the underworld and are lived by the millions.

There is a husband wife relationship between Bollywood and Underworld. They cant leave each other, they cant love each other for a long period of time. Divya Bharti lost her life striking a balance between the silverscreen and the underworld.The underworld has an advantage when it comes to casting.There preferred way of doing business is to take an unknown director and a producer with a couple of B films to their credit and then they look for a leading star of the moment. This whole process is based on authority and autocracy, primary functions of Underworld.

Underworld showers money, cannabis and girls to their favourite stars and in return controls their life and their organization. Every star who exists in Bollywood lives under the dark shadow of the Mafias and the underworld.
