Tweet-- George Clooney says he'd like to appear in one of India's spectacular song-and-dance movies.
"I'd love to. There are some filmmakers whose films when you see (them) you say, `That could be an interesting story to tell,'" the 45-year-old actor said in an interview, confirms Sheeraz Hasan founder of www.Hollywood.tv
Clooney said he's a fan of Bollywood, India's prolific Hindi film industry, and is impressed by the way it has expanded.
"I was watching a film the other day and the music was just amazing. It's become such a huge industry," he said.
"There is a small market in the (United) States as of now, but it will be fun if it catches on because it is such a positive way of looking at filmmaking and I really love that. I truly think it's fun," he said.
Clooney, a favorite among India's English-speaking middle and upper classes, won a best supporting actor Oscar for 2005's "Syriana."
"It seems like the Indian filmmakers are pushing boundaries in terms of pushing the censors. I think it's (Bollywood) an interesting place for filmmakers to go," he said.
At a recent Hollywood function, Sheeraz Hasan founder of www.Hollywood.tv Promised to send George Clooney some latest DVD's from Bollywood, as the BBC calls Sheeraz "The Bollywood Guy on the Red carpet in Hollywood"
Clooney's upcoming movie, "The Good German," will be released by Warner Bros. in the United States later this month. It will be released in India next year.
