Movie buffs are completely driven by movie related news. When they
get their hands on the newspaper, the first thing they do is check the
last page of Mumbai Mirror and Bombay Times. When your favourite actor
has been signed for a movie, the next few months go in finding
information related to it. Thus, there is a strong bond between the
audience and Bollywood.
Are you a movie buff, who stands in line to watch the latest films on
the first day? Who constantly finds a way to weave movie references
into everyday conversation? Then you probably spend a good amount of
time, browsing the internet for the latest news on your favourite
celebrities. Reading the morning newspaper means, studying the Bombay
Times or the last page of the Mumbai Mirror.
There is absolutely no harm in that. There are millions of people
like you all around the world. You can stand proud and take credit for
fuelling the entertainment industry. If it wasn't for diehard fans like
you, the industry would not be worth millions of dollars. I am sure you
have a badge of honour, which is like your diploma in entertainment
news. What badge of honour you ask? Well isn't it obvious, the high
score you have accomplished on the movie quiz app you have on your phone
or the contest you won on various social media sites.
If this is the case, then Twitter is a dream come true, allowing you
to get updates straight from the horse's mouth. Celebrities often tweet
about events they are attending, upcoming movies and the latest
developments in their personal life. For someone who is determined to
stay updated with the latest movie news, this is paradise. You can read
all the announcements and even interact with the celebrity. Whether they
respond or not, is based completely on luck.
Additionally, sites allow you to interact with people who share
similar views and interests. You can talk to people from all around the
world and have heated discussions about, a movie you just saw or a TV
show that changed your life. You can also write reviews and blogs, so
that others can be warned about a flop movie, which has disappointed
you.
When you see an announcement for a new movie, starting one or few of
your favourite actors, you are filled with excitement. The months
following involve, looking for any bit of information you can find about
the movie. When a trailer is released, you spend a good amount of time
scrutinizing it, trying to extract the anything that can tell you more
about the movie. It is then shared on various platforms, so that other
people can reap the benefits of your find.
A number of pictures from the sets are also released and the
newspapers feature periodic articles on the development of the movie.
The days leading up to the premiere are the most exciting. The actors
finally come out of the shadows and into the spotlight. They start
giving interviews and dropping hints that will keep you intrigued.
Finally, on the day of realise, you can go to the theatre and get
transported into the world you have read so much about. With the
emotional attachment you have created with the film and the actors, you
will definitely be entertained. So embrace your inner Bollywood nerd and
stay updated with all the latest movie news.
