Indian Cinemas have been primarily contributing to the entertainment industry, significantly, since the term Bollywood is now equivalent to Hollywood.

I bet it definitely will be an unimaginable sum. Not to mention, the Bollywood actresses starring in Hollywood movies are now considered a symbol of success.
