Synopsis: Into the circus of Bollywood is thrust an unsuspecting Pat Stomare (Pat Cusick), an out-of-luck American B-movie star. This is the work of Subramaniam Subra (Om Puri) for short-a producer who concocts the first pairing of an American hero with the legendary Manu Kapoor (Navin Nishol), an ageing Indian star. Manu and Pat play brothers who are 'separated by destiny and united by fate' in the old-fashioned Hindi potboiler Maut ('The Death') an action-drama-romantic extravaganza, with the young aspiring starlet Kajal (Perizaad Zorabian) playing the female lead opposite Manu.Bollywood Calling is an honest, no holds-barred look at the world of Indian film-making, as we follow Pat through his evolution from uncertain actor to competent Bollywood hero. Through Manu, Subra and the beautiful Kajal, we take this journey with Pat and experience with him the color, the confusion and the passion of Bollywood, all from an outsider-turned-insider's point of view. Bollywood Calling was shot on location in New Jersey and Hyderabad. The shooting at times developed an uncanny resemblance to the fiction it was trying to portray.
