I LURVE IT!<br /><br />Amrita - It damn is! There are many, many things Bollywood has given me (we really must write that list up), and a new fondness for the fashions of my childhood is a big one. EEEE I was <i>so</i> born at the right time, apparently. <br /><br />I am only sad that the images in this post are not nearly high enough resolution to suit your wall-sized purposes, but on the other hand, extreme pixelization will just add to the WTF/acid trip feel, so I think that is RIGHT ON.<br /><br />M - Really! That is so cool! It'd be so fun to try to put together a tour of those and any remaining locations/sets....Beth Loves Bollywoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05540154833326987567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-5591744771739494472010-03-04T10:37:45.616-06:002010-03-04T10:37:45.616-06:00There were people who regularly rented out their h...There were people who regularly rented out their houses for film-shoots - many of them looked like these :) This was in Bangalore, back in the 70s and 80s - we even knew someone who "remodeled" her house adding a sweeping staircase and balcony, and painting the place in filmy colors as the last movie-shoot had apparently said her house was getting "old-fashioned" and may not be in demand any more! <br /><br />MAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15977843.post-219350051410102622010-02-28T21:58:41.702-06:002010-02-28T21:58:41.702-06:00That is one hella lot of red, pink and fabulous!

The odd things that B-wood gives me. <br /><br />I have decided that in my dream house, instead of a giant painting or mural on one wall, the way I'd always imagined it, I shall have a giant blow up of this post instead.

How could I miss those! At least there's a full-on tiger :)<br /><br />avdi - I wonder that too! The oval staircase with the gold pendant lamp REALLY intrigues me - I've seen it twice now, and I'm betting it was in a hotel, which I can only dream STILL STANDS :)<br /><br />Rum - I KNOW!

It looked just like all of this! Come to think of it, all the pictures I have of my mom in her fab green polyester jumpsuit are from a fancy dinner at the Playboy Club. I may have found the source of my affinity for Bollywood...Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01131244543736980883noreply@blogger.com
