 ABCD of India

Quite of my friends wanted to know about India and what is the happening thing? So here is the ABCD of India :
[A]mitabh - Yes he is a phenomenon of his own. This Bollywood "super" star in early 80's
changed how the bollywood movies were made. @60+ He is still as funny and as young as it gets. 

[B]ollywood - The worlds' best crap (mostly) producing institute. But if you leave your 
brain out of the theatre, there is rarely a movie which is not worth your money. If you are tired, 
feeling bored, would like to see some wry fun or just wanted to catch some nap.. Any Indian 
theatre is the place. Obviously, it has produced some of the classics too but those 70's and 80's
are long past by.

[C]ricket - Oh yes! As you can call it - its the fifth major religion in India. In past few
decades India succeeded to win only one world cup (and reached the top four quite a few times) but
if you can find the real cricket fanatics, India is the place to see. Every single person would 
know the remedy of the poor performance of the team, or how simply out of this world a player is. 

[D]habas - These are the roadside eatery places. If you want to taste the authentic hot 
Indian curries these food courts, mostly near the highways, are the places to eat. In most of them 
you eat under a temporary shed and on some cheap dining tables or even on the benches, but the
food is simply the best.
