Entertainment is perhaps deemed a necessary psychological need for humans. Now, Bollywood
and Hollywood movies are two most popular source of Entertainment. However, many people
watch Hollywood movies, although there are many people like to watch Bollywood movies as
source of entertainment. In this essay I will write about the similarities and differences between
Bollywood and Hollywood movies.
There are some imperative similarities between Bollywood and Hollywood movies. Firstly, both
of them make all kinds of movies such as action, romance, drama, and comedy. Secondly, both
Hollywood and Bollywood highly promote their films and stars. Another similarity is that both
of them use the latest technology in the moves world. Moreover, these are very popular around
the world.
Although there are similarities but there are also a lot of differences. The first difference is that
Hollywood films are more technologically advanced compared to Bollywood movies and
Hollywood movies have a much bigger budget than Bollywood movies. Secondly, Hollywood
tackles various themes and issues, some bordering on human sensitivity and reality. On the other
hand Bollywood is centered on family, drama, and music. Thirdly, the Hollywood movies are
shorter than Bollywood movies. In Bollywood movies there are a lot of music and dance in the
movies to entertain people. But in Hollywood movies usually we found action and adventure.
Moreover, Hollywood is famous in scary movies. On the other hand the Bollywood famous in
romantic films.
All in all, most movies, especially Bollywood and Hollywood moves, give viewers a lot of
pleaser. The viewers of these movies also get knowledge about Bollyood and Hollywood culture
and latest technology of science and others. That is possible because of Bollywood and
Hollywood movies are so popular around the world.
