Welcome to [info]bollylyrics! Bollywood, otherwise known as India's film industry, is known for its musical films. Here is the place to post lyrics, translations, requests, etc. pertaining to such entertainment. All Desi industries are welcome here: Lollywood, Tollywood, etc. Just please try to keep posts on topic, use common sense with cuts, and please be respectful.

  1. All posts should be related to lyrics, preferably Bolly, Tolly, or Lollywood. Irrelevant posts will be deleted.

  2. Please be respectful. Leave your strong opinions to your own journal. First offence issues a warning; third warrants banning. It only takes common sense to know what is & is not acceptable.

  3. If posting very long lyrics, please use an LJ-cut. You can do so by copying the following: <lj-cut text="change this to say what you want"> your lyrics </lj-cut>

  4. No & I mean, NO community promotion. First offence warrants banning.

  5. Participate! Whether it be commenting, posting lyrics, translations, etc., just keep the community going!

  1. Weekly themes - Each week a new theme will be posted. Feel free to contribute lyrics pertaining to said theme.

  2. Antakshari - Each week, we'll set up a new antakshari post. From WikiPedia: "The idea of the game is to start singing the first two lines of a Hindi film song (usually from Bollywood movies). The game can be played by two or more people and is particularly popular as a group activity during commutes, bus rides etc. The singer has to sing two complete lines and then s/he may stop at the end of those or following lines. The last letter of the last word sung is then used by the next singer to sing another song, starting with that letter." So, for example, if one persion were to sing dil to pagal hai, dil dewaana hai, the next person would have to start singing lyrics beginning with 'i' [or at the very least an 'ai' sound]: ishq mein, pyaar mein, kya kya ho raha hai? [It doesn't have to be the first two lyrics in the song either.] :o)

  3. Name the Film - Another game. People can post obscure lyrics & see who can guess them.

If there is enough participation, a prize system might be set up: banners, icon requests, paid accounts etc.
