German Fans
by Akram on Feb 14, 2008 04:14 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

one of reader has written that it was Turkish population in Germany which is attracted by SRK for the reason of religion.

i had seen TV clips of the German show where most of them are Goras and hardly could find any other person.

Further Amitabh is most liked indian hero in Egypt predominantly a arab muslim country , same in the case of Morocco. Raj Kapoor is adored by russian for his acting.

Rajnikanth seems to have a big fan followers in Japan. it was known that his film Muthu ran full houses in Japan theaters.

myself a muslim like very much Ajay Devgan for his performance in GangalJaal, Company etc.

so dont try to bring religion in everything

Not only SRK, but Bollywood is becoming more popular in Europe these days. The main possible reasons, from my own experience in Germany is that,
1. Europeans are enjoying the Love and culture shown in the films which is completely different from their culture.
2. For historical reasons, most of the Europeans, especially Germans, do not like English and English speaking people, so they obviously like to encourage Bollywood.
3. The quality of the movie making in Bollywood is improved to be comparable with Hollywood (at least some times).
so..we shouldnt mind if its SRK or Hrithik who keeps India ahead in the global competition.
