If you watch an English movie, you will see one fundamental difference that often leaves first timers at Hollywood in wonder. There are no songs to which the hero and heroine dance in the middle of the movie. They may be playing in the background in some parts, but at no point of time does the entire focus shift entirely on the song. Bollywood is of course, very different. Songs are crucial to us, so much so that they have the ability to decide how successful a movie will be, or if it will be successful at all.
