How do you sing “bop to the top” in Hindi? The media conglomerate, Disney, is trying to expand the global reach of “High School Musical” to squeeze even more money from the franchise.
Now I love a good Bollywood movie, just as much as anyone else. I'm even glad to see that Blockbuster has started to carry them in the Foreign Film section. But the ever-reaching black gloved hands of Disney have stretched too far for my liking. Nothing like the globalization and homogenization of distinct cultures. That and "Aaja Nachle" from Monsoon Wedding is a better artistically.
