1
00:00:00,573 --> 00:00:02,674
My best friend is a Bollywood star.

2
00:00:03,053 --> 00:00:06,013
You've got a manager, you've got a
spot boy, you've got a driver, you've

3
00:00:06,213 --> 00:00:08,253
got, you've got assistant manager.

4
00:00:08,633 --> 00:00:10,334
It's sort of, it's a dream life.

5
00:00:10,653 --> 00:00:14,052
Anand is an actor in Mumbai
and takes me into his world.

6
00:00:14,773 --> 00:00:18,553
This is how the life of a
Bollywood star feels like.

7
00:00:18,994 --> 00:00:22,012
He works in the worldwide
largest film industry.

8
00:00:24,841 --> 00:00:27,421
Bollywood, that connect
many of you might

9
00:00:27,661 --> 00:00:32,360
spectacular choreographies, great ones
Love stories and colorful costumes.

10
00:00:34,421 --> 00:00:38,641
I want to understand the hype and meet
on some of the country's biggest stars.

11
00:00:39,400 --> 00:00:41,801
How would you describe
Bollywood in one sentence?

12
00:00:42,001 --> 00:00:48,521
This is Amitabh Bachchan, one of the
biggest Bollywood stars of all time.

13
00:00:51,217 --> 00:00:54,477
I look behind the scenes and
also learn about the dark sides.

14
00:01:01,257 --> 00:01:04,717
German actresses are also attracted
it in this tough industry.

15
00:01:05,038 --> 00:01:07,798
If it's a rejection, then
you never hear anything again.

16
00:01:07,798 --> 00:01:08,497
The Ghostline.

17
00:01:08,538 --> 00:01:09,577
The Ghostline.

18
00:01:10,657 --> 00:01:12,717
In India, cinema is more than entertainment.

19
00:01:13,017 --> 00:01:14,657
It is national identity.

20
00:01:22,365 --> 00:01:25,725
How does Anand manage to find himself in the...
biggest dream factory in the world ever

21
00:01:25,745 --> 00:01:27,405
to secure coveted roles again?

22
00:01:30,024 --> 00:01:31,925
One a bit
be crazy for this job?

23
00:01:32,285 --> 00:01:32,405
Yes.

24
00:01:33,384 --> 00:01:33,865
Action.

25
00:01:34,684 --> 00:01:36,365
It all starts in 2013.

26
00:01:36,705 --> 00:01:39,905
I've just finished high school
and travel to India for the first time.

27
00:01:40,425 --> 00:01:43,324
In a small cafe
I meet Anand by chance.

28
00:01:43,925 --> 00:01:47,226
He just got his job in one
Fashion house quit and suddenly time.

29
00:01:48,185 --> 00:01:51,685
We've known each other for less than twenty minutes
we decide to set off together.

30
00:01:52,226 --> 00:01:55,445
We are traveling to the Maldives,
across India and drive

31
00:01:55,524 --> 00:01:57,044
even by bike to Nepal.

32
00:01:57,585 --> 00:01:59,685
Since then we have been one heart and one soul.

33
00:02:00,625 --> 00:02:03,506
While I return to Germany
Anand goes to Mumbai

34
00:02:04,085 --> 00:02:06,725
with the pretty crazy one
Plan to become an actor.

35
00:02:08,945 --> 00:02:12,305
Today millions of people see his
Movies and he gets recognized all the time.

36
00:02:16,065 --> 00:02:19,245
Ever since we met,
his life turned upside down.

37
00:02:19,865 --> 00:02:23,545
What's it like being a Bollywood star?
how does the industry work?

38
00:02:27,589 --> 00:02:28,590
First day in Mumbai.

39
00:02:28,849 --> 00:02:29,710
Anand picks me up.

40
00:02:30,009 --> 00:02:31,789
His chauffeur Abdul drives the car.

41
00:02:32,249 --> 00:02:33,089
Come over.

42
00:02:33,890 --> 00:02:34,649
Hello.

43
00:02:34,950 --> 00:02:36,149
Good morning, Abdul.

44
00:02:37,129 --> 00:02:37,970
Nice to see you.

45
00:02:38,230 --> 00:02:40,629
Thank you for helping me with that.

46
00:02:41,249 --> 00:02:43,709
Abdul works six
days a week for Anand.

47
00:02:44,429 --> 00:02:47,150
A dedicated driver is in India
nothing special at first.

48
00:02:47,470 --> 00:02:49,029
A different world for me.

49
00:02:50,810 --> 00:02:52,029
How are you?

50
00:02:52,109 --> 00:02:53,629
Looking pretty.

51
00:02:55,709 --> 00:02:59,109
Today I'm accompanying Anand to the
red carpet to an event that

52
00:02:59,169 --> 00:03:00,749
only takes place once a year.

53
00:03:32,417 --> 00:03:35,798
Netflix presents you today
thirty-one new productions.

54
00:03:39,596 --> 00:03:42,197
People's energy levels
here is incredibly high.

55
00:03:47,017 --> 00:03:49,716
Before the event starts, leave
Anand reads his text through and

56
00:03:49,757 --> 00:03:51,036
rehearses the performance on stage.

57
00:03:51,877 --> 00:03:55,377
Last year, Netflix
in India around four hundred and fifty

58
00:03:55,497 --> 00:03:56,837
million euros implemented.

59
00:03:57,877 --> 00:04:01,897
A booming market, on average
grows around thirty percent annually.

60
00:04:04,197 --> 00:04:07,497
In that moment after the rehearsal
I had no idea that one of them would happen soon

61
00:04:07,557 --> 00:04:11,297
most influential actresses of the
Indian cinemas will walk past me.

62
00:04:11,917 --> 00:04:16,236
Attention, here with a black jacket and
Leopard print pants on the far left of the picture.

63
00:04:16,798 --> 00:04:18,337
Anand explains to me who she is.

64
00:04:27,217 --> 00:04:30,257
Madhuri Dikshit's legendary
did dance performances

65
00:04:30,337 --> 00:04:33,177
making her India's highest paid
Nineties actress.

66
00:04:33,637 --> 00:04:37,077
She and Shah Rukh Khan were considered
an extremely popular on-screen couple.

67
00:04:38,118 --> 00:04:41,817
If you have an Indian in the West
actor, it is Shah Rukh Khan.

68
00:04:42,217 --> 00:04:46,337
Hardly any other actor has the picture
of the romantic hero as shaped as he is.

69
00:04:48,236 --> 00:04:52,137
Shah Rukh made their films together
Khan and Madhuri become Bollywood icons.

70
00:04:55,182 --> 00:04:55,280
All over the world people know her.

71
00:04:55,280 --> 00:04:55,323
She's Madhuri Dixit.

72
00:04:55,323 --> 00:04:55,407
This is Simran, Anand's
Assistant Manager.

73
00:04:55,407 --> 00:04:59,422
Then there are his
Manager, sometimes still

74
00:05:03,762 --> 00:05:08,431
Stylist and make-up artist
and always there: Uday,

75
00:05:08,662 --> 00:05:10,932
his personal assistant.

76
00:05:10,932 --> 00:05:13,292
Responsible for everything from coffee
get to the door open.

77
00:05:15,151 --> 00:05:18,672
That's a... Oh.

78
00:05:18,672 --> 00:05:18,794
That's very sweet.

79
00:05:18,794 --> 00:05:22,211
Anand enjoys being with his team
takes care of the rest.

80
00:05:22,451 --> 00:05:24,562
Some champagne for us.

81
00:05:24,861 --> 00:05:27,162
Call for a chicken toasty or something.

82
00:05:27,162 --> 00:05:30,332
So even if I can nibble
a little and then...

83
00:05:31,202 --> 00:05:31,475
So that he can prepare for his appearance
can concentrate, becomes food for him

84
00:05:31,475 --> 00:05:32,761
ordered, clothes washed and ironed.

85
00:05:32,801 --> 00:05:34,331
Simran keeps

86
00:05:38,311 --> 00:05:39,692
all appointments at a glance.

87
00:05:39,692 --> 00:05:44,101
So basically one thirty is
when they plan to start.

88
00:05:44,101 --> 00:05:45,561
I'm living a dream, actually.

89
00:05:45,752 --> 00:05:49,181
You have a team that supports
you, somebody picking you,

90
00:05:49,601 --> 00:05:51,361
dropping you, people taking care.

91
00:05:52,331 --> 00:05:53,582
It's sort of, it's a dream life.

92
00:05:54,321 --> 00:05:59,821
So, so yeah, and I'm, I'm one of those
lucky few to be living my dream.

93
00:06:00,851 --> 00:06:01,131
Yeah.

94
00:06:01,481 --> 00:06:02,461
Yeah, very few makes it.

95
00:06:02,481 --> 00:06:05,162
And I don't think in the, in
life of an actor, you would ever,

96
00:06:05,171 --> 00:06:06,442
ever, you would ever make it.

97
00:06:07,902 --> 00:06:12,771
Äh, because, yeah, every new project
is a new way of defining your career.

98
00:06:13,042 --> 00:06:15,791
In order to stay relevant
to your profession, you

99
00:06:15,792 --> 00:06:17,052
have to be constantly seen.

100
00:06:17,052 --> 00:06:19,482
You have to be constantly
delivering the best.

101
00:06:19,502 --> 00:06:21,822
It doesn't matter you did
amazing in your first film.

102
00:06:21,822 --> 00:06:26,121
And then if you don't perform
well in your second, you are,

103
00:06:26,131 --> 00:06:27,231
you are completely forgotten.

104
00:06:27,841 --> 00:06:29,952
How did you get your first roles?

105
00:06:30,161 --> 00:06:32,321
How was the start of this career?

106
00:06:32,481 --> 00:06:33,121
Auditions.

107
00:06:34,152 --> 00:06:37,392
I was in Delhi because I
was doing theater there.

108
00:06:37,392 --> 00:06:41,791
And then, äh, I, it was my
life's first audition, actually.

109
00:06:42,321 --> 00:06:45,791
I went there, I gave the
audition and I got the part.

110
00:06:45,811 --> 00:06:47,771
I came to Bombay with a job.

111
00:06:48,201 --> 00:06:48,791
That's fine.

112
00:06:48,831 --> 00:06:56,751
Now to be in this nice hotel, having
a nice view and enjoying life.

113
00:06:57,241 --> 00:06:57,511
Yeah.

114
00:06:57,811 --> 00:06:59,381
There are so many things
to be grateful for.

115
00:06:59,441 --> 00:07:01,161
So many.

116
00:07:02,752 --> 00:07:04,791
Anand hat den Sprung ins
große Rampenlicht geschafft.

117
00:07:04,791 --> 00:07:09,531
Später nimmt er mich noch
tiefer mit in diese fremde Welt.

118
00:07:18,461 --> 00:07:21,941
But now to someone for whom
the way up is just beginning.

119
00:07:23,782 --> 00:07:24,822
We're meeting Lisa now.

120
00:07:24,921 --> 00:07:28,001
She's twenty-nine and coming
originally just like me

121
00:07:28,041 --> 00:07:31,541
Hessen, but has lived there for three years
Years in Mumbai and want it

122
00:07:31,581 --> 00:07:32,941
create here as an actress.

123
00:07:34,822 --> 00:07:38,041
Now we're going shopping because Lisa is a
Outfit needed for her next shoot.

124
00:07:38,941 --> 00:07:40,222
Lisa, hey.

125
00:07:40,841 --> 00:07:41,802
Nice to see you.

126
00:07:41,841 --> 00:07:42,222
Hi.

127
00:07:42,701 --> 00:07:42,941
Ed.

128
00:07:42,982 --> 00:07:43,521
Hey, Ed.

129
00:07:43,562 --> 00:07:44,281
Nice to meet you.

130
00:07:44,421 --> 00:07:44,741
Sam.

131
00:07:44,921 --> 00:07:45,341
Samuel.

132
00:07:46,321 --> 00:07:48,201
This is Salim, my cameraman.

133
00:07:49,541 --> 00:07:52,421
Ed, pictured right, leads
Directing Lisa's next play.

134
00:07:52,902 --> 00:07:56,601
Before she came to Mumbai, visited
Lisa an acting school in LA.

135
00:07:57,201 --> 00:08:00,321
There she also discovered her love
about Indian culture, she tells me.

136
00:08:01,521 --> 00:08:05,381
Everyone in drama school has it
then ate Indian food,

137
00:08:05,441 --> 00:08:08,621
listened to the music, the films
watched, celebrated the festivals.

138
00:08:09,021 --> 00:08:11,621
And then eventually over time
my friends said: “Then

139
00:08:11,681 --> 00:08:12,861
Just try it in India.

140
00:08:12,882 --> 00:08:14,201
So, you like the culture.

141
00:08:14,222 --> 00:08:14,721
Why not?

142
00:08:15,361 --> 00:08:19,121
What do you have to lose?" Also because of
Visa problems and competitive pressure

143
00:08:19,201 --> 00:08:23,181
Lisa then put everything in the USA
their hopes for Bollywood and

144
00:08:23,242 --> 00:08:24,501
now wants to assert myself here.

145
00:08:26,821 --> 00:08:30,181
Of course this also includes that
Haggling at the bazaar, because for

146
00:08:30,242 --> 00:08:33,361
She misses Lisa's next shoot
still the matching costumes.

147
00:08:45,481 --> 00:08:48,361
I really had situations
where people have tried me

148
00:08:48,382 --> 00:08:49,001
to pull over the table.

149
00:08:49,021 --> 00:08:52,301
Then I have a bit of Hindi
talked and then it was like, “Oh, oh,

150
00:08:52,341 --> 00:08:55,441
"Okay, she has a bit of an idea."

151
00:08:55,501 --> 00:08:57,641
The road to Bollywood success is arduous.

152
00:08:58,181 --> 00:09:00,941
To even have a chance
To get roles, she has to

153
00:09:01,001 --> 00:09:02,341
keep applying again and again.

154
00:09:04,542 --> 00:09:07,042
Today she takes together
with her roommate

155
00:09:07,082 --> 00:09:08,562
another audition video.

156
00:09:09,422 --> 00:09:11,641
Tell me, what are they actually?
for roles that you usually do like that

157
00:09:11,682 --> 00:09:13,282
get as a white woman in Mumbai?

158
00:09:13,342 --> 00:09:18,242
Um, so there are a lot of these
Colonial films being made

159
00:09:18,262 --> 00:09:21,882
and then I'm often the wife of
a governor or something or that

160
00:09:21,922 --> 00:09:23,402
Daughter of some governor.

161
00:09:24,122 --> 00:09:27,262
So what bothers you is that you
just always these roles in history

162
00:09:27,322 --> 00:09:30,702
Context occupied and there the women
actually had little to say back then.

163
00:09:30,742 --> 00:09:34,982
With the roles yes, but there are also
lots of roles where, um, ah, sort of

164
00:09:35,021 --> 00:09:37,641
Commercial films or something like that are made,
where I then have a normal role,

165
00:09:37,742 --> 00:09:43,141
sort of as, um, marketing manager
or, ah, some employee

166
00:09:43,182 --> 00:09:45,762
and then there is something, that is then
of course completely different and there

167
00:09:45,802 --> 00:09:46,902
the acting is also different.

168
00:09:46,922 --> 00:09:47,602
Can you read the line?

169
00:09:47,722 --> 00:09:49,002
Um, so read my eyeline?

170
00:09:49,802 --> 00:09:50,141
Box.

171
00:09:50,641 --> 00:09:51,162
Okay, perfect.

172
00:09:51,302 --> 00:09:52,942
How much auditioning
do you do something like this per month?

173
00:09:53,742 --> 00:09:54,702
It totally depends.

174
00:09:54,902 --> 00:10:00,141
Um, some months it is
ten, some are one.

175
00:10:00,242 --> 00:10:02,002
If I say now, mine
Success rate is ten to twenty

176
00:10:02,062 --> 00:10:05,641
Percent, that's mega, but it
is- That's a good rate, yes?

177
00:10:05,842 --> 00:10:06,702
Yes, yes, yes, definitely.

178
00:10:06,712 --> 00:10:09,642
Because you also do eight
Just audition for nothing.

179
00:10:10,021 --> 00:10:11,342
You won't get paid for it either.

180
00:10:11,382 --> 00:10:14,222
Those are your working hours,
that you stay on.

181
00:10:14,322 --> 00:10:14,402
Yes.

182
00:10:14,882 --> 00:10:18,242
Meanwhile, we above all are one
very, very well-coordinated team and then

183
00:10:19,262 --> 00:10:24,402
you can turn it around quickly,
So quickly complete the auditions.

184
00:10:24,502 --> 00:10:27,462
I too can be part of it today
be well-rehearsed teams and

185
00:10:27,521 --> 00:10:28,902
take on a small speaking role.

186
00:10:29,442 --> 00:10:30,882
Because you only give the cues.

187
00:10:31,002 --> 00:10:32,862
So me.

188
00:10:33,622 --> 00:10:34,521
What are cues?

189
00:10:34,822 --> 00:10:38,362
Cues are, um, what you say,
to which I then answer.

190
00:10:38,622 --> 00:10:38,802
Yes.

191
00:10:39,012 --> 00:10:42,602
So your last sentence is
my cue to answer.

192
00:10:43,862 --> 00:10:47,402
In the role we're talking about today,
Lisa plays a German arms dealer.

193
00:10:48,642 --> 00:10:50,862
But I have to admit, I like
those who know their craft.

194
00:10:50,952 --> 00:10:52,142
Not everyone always gets everything sorted.

195
00:10:53,802 --> 00:10:56,002
Oh, hello Matt.

196
00:10:56,082 --> 00:10:58,542
I hope I don't have to
remember your promise.

197
00:10:58,702 --> 00:10:59,842
She's asking about delivery.

198
00:11:00,362 --> 00:11:02,622
Don't worry, you will get
your delivery in thirty days.

199
00:11:02,682 --> 00:11:03,422
Twenty-five.

200
00:11:04,482 --> 00:11:05,102
That's right.

201
00:11:05,802 --> 00:11:06,202
All right then.

202
00:11:07,382 --> 00:11:08,501
So twenty-five days.

203
00:11:15,516 --> 00:11:16,137
I think it's okay.

204
00:11:16,457 --> 00:11:16,637
Yeah.

205
00:11:16,737 --> 00:11:17,137
What do you think?

206
00:11:17,577 --> 00:11:18,237
I think it's fine.

207
00:11:18,997 --> 00:11:19,717
Are you optimistic?

208
00:11:20,497 --> 00:11:21,016
Let's see.

209
00:11:21,137 --> 00:11:21,597
Let's see.

210
00:11:22,077 --> 00:11:24,358
I think there isn't
so many Germans here.

211
00:11:25,177 --> 00:11:30,318
Um, but it was fun and whatnot
it shouldn't be, it shouldn't be.

212
00:11:30,957 --> 00:11:32,357
How fast is the industry?

213
00:11:32,378 --> 00:11:36,337
So when will you get it?
usually an acceptance or rejection?

214
00:11:36,577 --> 00:11:37,497
When will they get back to you?

215
00:11:37,577 --> 00:11:41,497
So if it were a promise, then
probably relatively quickly.

216
00:11:41,557 --> 00:11:44,157
Within one, two,
three days, I would say.

217
00:11:44,997 --> 00:11:47,697
If it's a rejection, then
you never hear anything again.

218
00:11:47,717 --> 00:11:48,557
They just ghost you.

219
00:11:48,597 --> 00:11:49,157
Ghost one.

220
00:11:50,377 --> 00:11:51,577
Yes, but it's part of it.

221
00:11:51,717 --> 00:11:54,537
So it's just part, part of life.

222
00:11:54,597 --> 00:11:55,396
It's just a lifestyle.

223
00:11:56,357 --> 00:11:59,837
Lisa was on the shortlist and has it
But didn't get the role this time.

224
00:12:00,617 --> 00:12:04,197
Like her actress life in Mumbai
We'll find out later

225
00:12:04,237 --> 00:12:06,037
more precisely when we accompany them to the shoot.

226
00:12:06,477 --> 00:12:10,497
But what kind of hype is this?
that Lisa also wants to be a part of?

227
00:12:11,438 --> 00:12:15,057
One thing is certain: what this industry
drives are mainly around one and a half

228
00:12:15,117 --> 00:12:19,177
Billions of Indians, for their stars
are much more than just actors.

229
00:12:20,317 --> 00:12:23,337
I'm told that's here
every Sunday at 6 p.m

230
00:12:23,417 --> 00:12:27,338
probably the most famous personality
of the country in front of her house.

231
00:12:27,396 --> 00:12:29,097
I would like to take a closer look at this.

232
00:12:36,776 --> 00:12:38,057
What is everyone waiting for here?

233
00:12:38,516 --> 00:12:39,656
For Amitabh Bachchan.

234
00:12:39,737 --> 00:12:40,457
Amitabh Bachchan.

235
00:12:40,497 --> 00:12:41,158
Superstar, yeah.

236
00:12:41,416 --> 00:12:43,296
The legend Amitabh Bachchan.

237
00:12:44,158 --> 00:12:46,637
What values is he?
representing in his movies?

238
00:12:47,598 --> 00:12:49,997
Family, friendship, love, care, affection.

239
00:12:51,117 --> 00:12:51,637
Everything.

240
00:12:51,977 --> 00:12:52,577
Action too.

241
00:12:55,318 --> 00:12:58,416
It's the raw action scenes
his films from the seventies and

242
00:12:58,536 --> 00:13:02,156
Eighties, the Amitabh Bachchan
made him a national hero.

243
00:13:02,437 --> 00:13:06,536
He is a living legend, one
Icon that has shaped generations.

244
00:13:08,097 --> 00:13:13,637
Everyone in India knows his name and
celebrates him in the film as in real life.

245
00:13:16,274 --> 00:13:18,934
He shows once a week
to the fans in front of his house.

246
00:13:19,134 --> 00:13:22,973
This is Amitabh Bachchan, one of the
biggest Bollywood stars of all time.

247
00:13:23,654 --> 00:13:24,973
I'm not completely alone here.

248
00:13:25,634 --> 00:13:28,694
There are about a thousand here
people, if not even more so

249
00:13:28,714 --> 00:13:30,834
more who want to see him.

250
00:13:31,093 --> 00:13:32,973
I'm so, so, so happy.

251
00:13:33,374 --> 00:13:35,294
Just like a god to see you.

252
00:13:35,394 --> 00:13:39,514
She is extra four hundred kilometers
arrived, he even a thousand.

253
00:13:45,994 --> 00:13:49,994
Three

254
00:13:53,254 --> 00:13:56,834
The spectacle lasts minutes,
then he disappeared again.

255
00:13:57,274 --> 00:14:00,014
I'm slowly realizing:
This hype is everyday life here.

256
00:14:00,534 --> 00:14:03,114
As soon as an event is over,
the next one is already coming up.

257
00:14:04,074 --> 00:14:07,434
Today finds behind these
Throw an exclusive party

258
00:14:07,473 --> 00:14:09,034
Indian spring festival Holi.

259
00:14:09,814 --> 00:14:12,353
That's why here almost
any color powder on the face.

260
00:14:13,274 --> 00:14:15,154
Dozens of fans are waiting in front of the entrance.

261
00:14:15,714 --> 00:14:18,534
Does a celebrity leave this?
event, the hunt is on.

262
00:14:18,934 --> 00:14:20,434
This is complete madness here.

263
00:14:20,454 --> 00:14:22,973
People run after their stars.

264
00:14:23,694 --> 00:14:27,934
It's already a whole mob
Here always forms around the celebrities.

265
00:14:28,414 --> 00:14:31,654
This is Manish Arani, known from the
Indian version of Big Brother.

266
00:14:35,214 --> 00:14:38,114
I wonder what the fans
drives, and meet Ashok.

267
00:14:38,733 --> 00:14:42,184
His idol: Farahanabat,
also a Big Brother star.

268
00:14:43,084 --> 00:14:47,894
As on

269
00:14:56,934 --> 00:14:59,473
assistant.

270
00:14:59,554 --> 00:15:00,214
Does this work?

271
00:15:00,274 --> 00:15:02,973
Have you heard of people who
have done this process like this?

272
00:15:03,074 --> 00:15:07,074
It

273
00:15:13,714 --> 00:15:17,394
is a mixture of fascination
and the desire for social

274
00:15:17,473 --> 00:15:19,134
Rise that drives Ashok.

275
00:15:22,954 --> 00:15:27,534
How contagious the Bollywood hype is,
I find out from him: Anil Kapoor.

276
00:15:29,981 --> 00:15:34,241
He's like George Clooney
Bollywood's and I heard he should

277
00:15:34,282 --> 00:15:36,041
walk on the red carpet here

278
00:15:38,813 --> 00:15:41,373
There's a star running after us here
the next one past me.

279
00:15:41,553 --> 00:15:46,013
I try everywhere, maybe
to catch someone here and there,

280
00:15:46,573 --> 00:15:47,734
but it's not that easy.

281
00:15:49,393 --> 00:15:51,273
But then my chance.

282
00:15:52,513 --> 00:15:55,533
Can I ask you how would you?
describe Bollywood in one sentence?

283
00:15:55,734 --> 00:15:56,293
The cast

284
00:15:59,566 --> 00:16:01,976
This is Anant Vijay Joshi's room

285
00:16:06,396 --> 00:16:07,418
What happened downstairs?

286
00:16:08,137 --> 00:16:09,477
Oh, I met Anil Kapoor.

287
00:16:10,557 --> 00:16:11,557
Oh my God.

288
00:16:13,717 --> 00:16:14,197
Wow.

289
00:16:14,957 --> 00:16:16,437
You saw his film yesterday.

290
00:16:18,396 --> 00:16:19,198
That was Mr. India.

291
00:16:19,318 --> 00:16:19,997
Mr India.

292
00:16:20,158 --> 00:16:21,097
That was Mr. India.

293
00:16:21,217 --> 00:16:23,637
Yesterday we had one
Watched the film, Mr. India.

294
00:16:23,758 --> 00:16:24,957
It's a classic.

295
00:16:25,396 --> 00:16:26,516
Mr India.

296
00:16:26,717 --> 00:16:26,877
Oh.

297
00:16:27,217 --> 00:16:31,597
And the lead role is played by Anil Kapoor,
who I just met downstairs.

298
00:16:33,837 --> 00:16:37,477
Admittedly, get it now at the latest
I was inspired by the Bollywood hype

299
00:16:37,837 --> 00:16:40,957
and I too am from the career
this actor impressed.

300
00:16:45,358 --> 00:16:49,818
Anil Kapoor became internationally known
but only through Slumdog Millionaire.

301
00:16:50,197 --> 00:16:51,717
There he played the quiz master.

302
00:16:51,737 --> 00:16:53,077
Absolutely right.

303
00:16:58,593 --> 00:17:05,444
And he came from nowhere as well, uh,
and became such a huge star He came

304
00:17:05,444 --> 00:17:09,094
from nowhere, that means in Bollywood
your social class doesn't matter,

305
00:17:09,273 --> 00:17:10,794
only, what only matters is talent?

306
00:17:11,874 --> 00:17:12,334
Your luck

307
00:17:14,461 --> 00:17:15,482
More talent or more luck?

308
00:17:15,661 --> 00:17:16,421
I think more luck.

309
00:17:17,602 --> 00:17:21,521
Because there is no, uh, the
thing is, there is no, uh,

310
00:17:23,722 --> 00:17:25,541
no method of luck.

311
00:17:25,921 --> 00:17:27,001
You just got to be lucky.

312
00:17:27,361 --> 00:17:28,621
There is a method to be talented.

313
00:17:28,701 --> 00:17:32,322
You can learn skills and get
the talent, work on your skills.

314
00:17:33,062 --> 00:17:38,341
Uh, but yeah, but if you don't
have luck, sometimes, yeah, all

315
00:17:38,421 --> 00:17:41,521
those efforts and can go in vain.

316
00:17:41,981 --> 00:17:46,701
Tens of thousands of people try it every year
to gain a foothold in India's film industry.

317
00:17:47,062 --> 00:17:49,422
It probably won't be known
times one percent of them.

318
00:17:50,262 --> 00:17:54,021
A lot for other actors
employ additional employees

319
00:17:54,062 --> 00:17:55,621
Anand himself takes over.

320
00:17:55,961 --> 00:17:57,001
His makeup today.

321
00:17:57,481 --> 00:18:00,761
And then for personal emergencies
yes, his team is still there.

322
00:18:01,402 --> 00:18:03,801
Simran.

323
00:18:03,841 --> 00:18:07,402
Ask her if she has some hair product.

324
00:18:07,441 --> 00:18:07,601
Like gel

325
00:18:10,341 --> 00:18:10,501
for hair.

326
00:18:10,541 --> 00:18:10,981
I forgot to bring mine.

327
00:18:11,021 --> 00:18:11,681
Already crazy.

328
00:18:11,981 --> 00:18:14,882
Back then we carried on ours
Backpacking trip everything we

329
00:18:14,921 --> 00:18:16,761
needed, even on the back.

330
00:18:16,821 --> 00:18:19,321
Today Anand will even do that
Hair gel worn afterwards.

331
00:18:23,581 --> 00:18:25,161
Do you think somebody?
would have a hair serum?

332
00:18:26,381 --> 00:18:27,021
Hair serum?

333
00:18:27,161 --> 00:18:27,342
Yeah.

334
00:18:28,201 --> 00:18:28,761
Let me ask.

335
00:18:29,041 --> 00:18:29,681
All right, thanks.

336
00:18:30,441 --> 00:18:32,762
Hardly a wish is fulfilled,
the next one is coming.

337
00:18:33,222 --> 00:18:35,081
Anand needs more light in the bathroom.

338
00:18:36,222 --> 00:18:39,641
Admittedly that my friend is a
has the whole team around him

339
00:18:39,701 --> 00:18:41,041
still unusual for me.

340
00:18:42,022 --> 00:18:45,262
Where a healthy boundary lies is
always an issue between us.

341
00:18:46,541 --> 00:18:48,961
Like, I'm with the least
amount of people here.

342
00:18:49,262 --> 00:18:50,561
And he got, I don't know.

343
00:18:50,762 --> 00:18:53,921
But you've got a manager, you've got a
spot boy, you've got a driver, you've

344
00:18:54,121 --> 00:18:56,101
got, you've got an assistant manager.

345
00:18:58,501 --> 00:19:01,801
I said, "No, people come up with
all sorts of things." Like, hey, a

346
00:19:01,901 --> 00:19:05,021
makeup and masseuse and what a lot.

347
00:19:05,081 --> 00:19:08,101
And yeah, a spot boy would
have a system spot boy.

348
00:19:08,182 --> 00:19:08,522
Yeah.

349
00:19:08,941 --> 00:19:12,981
More blatant listening goes on in the
Indian film industry of course always.

350
00:19:13,682 --> 00:19:16,041
And then Anand agrees
on his appearance.

351
00:19:18,261 --> 00:19:19,881
It's the kind of clothes I'm wearing.

352
00:19:22,441 --> 00:19:24,301
The bubbly fits the cliché perfectly.

353
00:19:24,862 --> 00:19:25,981
I rarely see Anand like this.

354
00:19:26,362 --> 00:19:28,761
Away from stage fright
He doesn't actually drink at all.

355
00:19:30,261 --> 00:19:35,021
That Uday, Anand's personal assistant,
and he in two completely different worlds

356
00:19:35,081 --> 00:19:37,041
live, the next moment shows me.

357
00:19:40,041 --> 00:19:40,781
Champagne.

358
00:19:42,601 --> 00:19:43,521
So happy that you're here.

359
00:19:45,301 --> 00:19:49,101
This is how the life of a
Bollywood star feels like.

360
00:20:00,332 --> 00:20:04,434
And then Anand presents in a room
full of press people his new series.

361
00:20:05,053 --> 00:20:10,454
Around India are created every year
two thousand five hundred films, distributed

362
00:20:10,493 --> 00:20:12,553
on several major film industries.

363
00:20:13,913 --> 00:20:17,953
What many in the West generally refer to as
By the way, it is called Bollywood

364
00:20:18,013 --> 00:20:19,733
just a part of the Indian film world.

365
00:20:20,312 --> 00:20:22,513
Films are made here
in dozens of languages.

366
00:20:22,954 --> 00:20:25,332
Tamil, Telugu, Kannada.

367
00:20:26,273 --> 00:20:28,893
Own industries, which have long been
keep up with Bollywood.

368
00:20:30,134 --> 00:20:32,072
The day was a complete success for Anand.

369
00:20:32,793 --> 00:20:36,013
Then he has to go to a shoot and
I want him on the big one

370
00:20:36,072 --> 00:20:39,134
Experience the canvas for a better experience
to get a feel for his films.

371
00:20:44,625 --> 00:20:47,905
In the cinema I watch Ajay,
with Anand in the lead role.

372
00:20:48,685 --> 00:20:50,065
In it he plays a monk

373
00:20:53,545 --> 00:20:54,625
The gates open.

374
00:20:54,905 --> 00:20:56,325
We can now go into the hall.

375
00:20:56,405 --> 00:20:57,565
There's a lot of hustle and bustle here.

376
00:20:58,165 --> 00:21:01,665
Going to the cinema in India has
something of a state act.

377
00:21:02,505 --> 00:21:05,185
Please stand for the national anthem.

378
00:21:05,446 --> 00:21:08,005
Before the film is shown
sometimes the national anthem.

379
00:21:32,369 --> 00:21:35,549
And of course you can, how
everywhere, popcorn is not missing.

380
00:21:36,369 --> 00:21:40,549
Because there is a special performance
Today it is available in huge quantities for free.

381
00:21:41,230 --> 00:21:45,690
Anand embodies the life story
a real person, Yogi Adityanath,

382
00:21:46,168 --> 00:21:50,408
a monk appointed by the religious leader
rose to become a politician and today from

383
00:21:50,469 --> 00:21:54,149
some even as a possible successor
seen by Prime Minister Modi.

384
00:21:56,190 --> 00:21:58,489
In the film there is a
Politicians strongly heroized.

385
00:21:59,069 --> 00:22:01,569
It shows how different that is
Indian cinema changed.

386
00:22:01,908 --> 00:22:05,749
Away from the colorful dance and dream worlds
the eighties and nineties

387
00:22:05,810 --> 00:22:08,429
to stories that are a little closer
want to be in reality.

388
00:22:16,129 --> 00:22:18,929
Actually I want Anand
accompany you to the film set, yes

389
00:22:19,009 --> 00:22:20,290
its production blocked.

390
00:22:23,569 --> 00:22:26,709
So I look for that one
Show around and get to know him:

391
00:22:27,049 --> 00:22:28,649
Actor Sudhanshu Pandey.

392
00:22:29,109 --> 00:22:33,129
We exchange numbers and suddenly
I have a commitment for the set.

393
00:22:34,109 --> 00:22:38,209
There, in addition to all the hype, I will also be from
experience the dark side of the industry

394
00:22:42,024 --> 00:22:45,645
I'm in Film City and like the name
already says, it's so huge here that

395
00:22:45,665 --> 00:22:47,205
the driver got lost.

396
00:22:47,764 --> 00:22:49,564
It's like a city within a city.

397
00:22:50,485 --> 00:22:52,905
And here I can today
be there during the shoot.

398
00:22:54,544 --> 00:22:59,466
Sudhanshu was mainly through the Daily
Soap Anupama is known in which he is in over

399
00:22:59,646 --> 00:23:01,665
appeared in one thousand three hundred episodes.

400
00:23:03,004 --> 00:23:06,466
Also for his new series Do Duniya
Ek Dil, two worlds, one heart,

401
00:23:06,745 --> 00:23:08,405
Hundreds of episodes are planned.

402
00:23:09,146 --> 00:23:11,385
I meet Sudhanshu
Start of filming in the mask.

403
00:23:12,925 --> 00:23:14,225
Thank you very much for having us.

404
00:23:14,846 --> 00:23:15,405
My pleasure.

405
00:23:15,885 --> 00:23:16,324
Welcome.

406
00:23:16,846 --> 00:23:17,485
Thank you.

407
00:23:18,524 --> 00:23:20,604
You notice it straight away
Sudhanshu's love for music.

408
00:23:21,104 --> 00:23:23,646
Listening to some music
before- Yeah, Bruno Mars.

409
00:23:23,685 --> 00:23:23,915
Bruno Mars.

410
00:23:23,915 --> 00:23:24,245
Bruno Mars.

411
00:23:24,305 --> 00:23:24,564
Yeah.

412
00:23:25,185 --> 00:23:28,305
Sudhanshu was a member of
India's first boy band.

413
00:23:29,544 --> 00:23:31,844
Our songs hit through the roof.

414
00:23:34,973 --> 00:23:39,033
dominated in the early 2000s
he and A Band of Boys

415
00:23:39,053 --> 00:23:40,533
the Indian charts for weeks.

416
00:23:43,369 --> 00:23:47,408
Sudhanshu knows both: huge ones
Successes but also collapses.

417
00:23:48,310 --> 00:23:51,069
I did have a panic attack back in 2007.

418
00:23:51,749 --> 00:23:53,529
People had no idea what depression is.

419
00:23:54,110 --> 00:23:57,750
That is when I had faced it and I
had shot my entire movie, äh, during

420
00:23:57,789 --> 00:24:00,188
that time and it was a comedy film.

421
00:24:01,609 --> 00:24:05,009
So you can see the irony of life when
I was in the worst state of mind.

422
00:24:05,969 --> 00:24:08,509
Äh, I was shooting a
film which was comedy.

423
00:24:09,389 --> 00:24:11,609
Glamour can never bring you peace of mind.

424
00:24:11,649 --> 00:24:13,489
It can never bring you happiness.

425
00:24:13,948 --> 00:24:19,850
What, äh, real is, is
something that is within you.

426
00:24:19,928 --> 00:24:20,690
It's not outside.

427
00:24:21,589 --> 00:24:22,188
You need to go.

428
00:24:23,010 --> 00:24:23,729
They're calling me.

429
00:24:23,769 --> 00:24:26,249
I, I believe they've come
about five, five, six times.

430
00:24:27,469 --> 00:24:29,688
Now we can Sudhanshu
accompany you to the film set.

431
00:24:30,109 --> 00:24:32,310
I'm already standing here in the middle
in a market street.

432
00:24:32,849 --> 00:24:33,649
This is incredible.

433
00:24:33,688 --> 00:24:35,269
I've never seen a set like this.

434
00:24:35,969 --> 00:24:38,589
The Filmcity borders directly
to a national park.

435
00:24:38,969 --> 00:24:40,729
Wild monkeys on set are normal here.

436
00:24:41,129 --> 00:24:44,029
Now let's go through a door here and...
suddenly we are in a villa.

437
00:24:45,609 --> 00:24:48,908
Before filming begins, he explains
Director, what scenes are we talking about today?

438
00:25:02,710 --> 00:25:06,069
Then Sudhanshu has a little more
Time to look at the script.

439
00:25:07,089 --> 00:25:07,729
A lot of drama.

440
00:25:08,149 --> 00:25:10,569
People in our country love a lot of drama.

441
00:25:11,549 --> 00:25:12,188
I'll see you in a bit.

442
00:25:14,850 --> 00:25:15,389
Running camera.

443
00:25:17,757 --> 00:25:18,298
Action!

444
00:25:19,017 --> 00:25:20,237
And then it starts filming.

445
00:25:20,697 --> 00:25:22,397
The timing here is extremely high.

446
00:25:22,957 --> 00:25:26,138
It was shot for six days
week, twelve hours a day.

447
00:25:30,140 --> 00:25:34,380
Less than two weeks after my set visit
This scene was already on TV.

448
00:25:34,920 --> 00:25:37,501
A whole hundred and ten
People work on set here

449
00:25:43,081 --> 00:25:47,200
So that it ends up being as cinematic as possible
works, everything is done with three cameras

450
00:25:47,241 --> 00:25:49,180
rotated in a variety of settings.

451
00:25:50,121 --> 00:25:54,180
According to projections, the series will achieve
up to nine million viewers per episode

452
00:25:57,270 --> 00:25:57,379
Stop

453
00:25:59,869 --> 00:26:02,770
I also meet him on set
eighteen year old Waseem.

454
00:26:18,449 --> 00:26:22,349
Waseem came to Mumbai from Bihar to
to gain a foothold in the film industry.

455
00:26:22,790 --> 00:26:25,509
Bihar is one of the poorest
States of India.

456
00:26:26,269 --> 00:26:29,369
Waseem works loudly here
own statement for converted

457
00:26:29,449 --> 00:26:31,428
one hundred and thirty-six euros a month.

458
00:26:31,990 --> 00:26:35,408
That's just a quarter of that
average monthly wage in Mumbai.

459
00:26:36,170 --> 00:26:38,129
And that with one
seventy-two hours a week.

460
00:26:51,549 --> 00:26:54,370
Together with his uncle
he shares this about two

461
00:26:54,428 --> 00:26:55,870
times three meter room.

462
00:26:56,910 --> 00:26:58,408
Stars, champagne, red carpet.

463
00:26:58,829 --> 00:27:00,550
This is the page we want everyone to see.

464
00:27:01,189 --> 00:27:04,050
People like Wasim think so
Myth of Bollywood going on

465
00:27:04,109 --> 00:27:05,109
and remain invisible.

466
00:27:06,729 --> 00:27:09,989
We have the production company after
asked about his working conditions.

467
00:27:10,408 --> 00:27:11,789
There was no comment.

468
00:27:13,249 --> 00:27:16,589
And Sudhanshu is filming right next door
the last take of the day.

469
00:27:17,829 --> 00:27:18,929
Congratulations.

470
00:27:18,989 --> 00:27:19,489
Thank you, buddy.

471
00:27:19,530 --> 00:27:20,168
It's a wrap for today.

472
00:27:20,329 --> 00:27:21,469
Yes, it's a wrap for today.

473
00:27:21,710 --> 00:27:22,589
Thank you.

474
00:27:23,070 --> 00:27:24,570
Thank you for having me.

475
00:27:24,589 --> 00:27:25,269
My pleasure.

476
00:27:25,289 --> 00:27:26,389
My pleasure.

477
00:27:28,370 --> 00:27:30,829
Today's filming day lasted twelve hours.

478
00:27:31,329 --> 00:27:33,489
Everyone is happy, finally
to be able to go home.

479
00:27:34,210 --> 00:27:37,309
And for Wasim, who...
Air conditioning takes care of, that is

480
00:27:37,408 --> 00:27:39,269
Set has long since become a home.

481
00:27:40,729 --> 00:27:43,509
A few hours drive outside
Lisa is shooting from Mumbai.

482
00:27:44,710 --> 00:27:46,149
Ah yes, it's over there.

483
00:27:46,489 --> 00:27:47,729
That's where we meet Lisa now.

484
00:27:47,769 --> 00:27:50,349
There's a twist here today
for a social media format

485
00:27:50,449 --> 00:27:51,729
and we can be there.

486
00:27:53,349 --> 00:27:55,829
This villa is being built
a vertical drama.

487
00:27:56,129 --> 00:28:00,229
This is a series that is easy to consume
for smartphones only

488
00:28:00,289 --> 00:28:01,549
rotated in portrait format.

489
00:28:02,229 --> 00:28:05,989
In China the vertical market has
an annual turnover of over six

490
00:28:06,070 --> 00:28:08,629
Billions of euros have already overtaken the cinema.

491
00:28:14,420 --> 00:28:16,380
Camera two, scene one,
shot two, take three.

492
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:18,180
Okay, like you can't stop always coming.

493
00:28:18,442 --> 00:28:22,200
And you can also see it in India
Vertical dramas always have more potential.

494
00:28:23,261 --> 00:28:27,041
It applies to Lisa and the film crew
well, ninety pages of script within

495
00:28:27,081 --> 00:28:28,900
in just four and a half days.

496
00:28:29,281 --> 00:28:30,640
It's fun, it's fun.

497
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:33,242
I always think I can do better
do, I can do it differently,

498
00:28:33,261 --> 00:28:37,920
But if he's happy, I'm happy.

499
00:28:38,261 --> 00:28:38,281
Cut.

500
00:28:39,161 --> 00:28:42,901
So you have to during the shoot
Clarify visa issues between takes?

501
00:28:43,101 --> 00:28:43,360
Yes.

502
00:28:44,601 --> 00:28:44,801
Yes.

503
00:28:44,901 --> 00:28:45,660
This can't wait, can it?

504
00:28:45,761 --> 00:28:46,321
This is important.

505
00:28:46,541 --> 00:28:49,262
Yes, yes, this has to happen today, today.

506
00:28:49,562 --> 00:28:53,501
Lisa's work visa will only ever be for
extended for about three to twelve months.

507
00:28:53,921 --> 00:28:55,001
Do you guys have Wi-Fi here?

508
00:28:55,581 --> 00:28:57,460
Your agent will take care of the problem.

509
00:28:59,645 --> 00:29:00,145
Thank you so much.

510
00:29:00,205 --> 00:29:01,225
Really appreciate it.

511
00:29:02,725 --> 00:29:03,325
Thank you.

512
00:29:04,225 --> 00:29:04,506
Bye Bye.

513
00:29:05,185 --> 00:29:07,986
If I within the next
I wouldn't have to get a visa for days

514
00:29:07,986 --> 00:29:09,165
leave within three days.

515
00:29:09,785 --> 00:29:09,925
Yes.

516
00:29:11,005 --> 00:29:13,365
Only for a few months
have planning security,

517
00:29:13,665 --> 00:29:14,765
sounds like stress to me.

518
00:29:15,365 --> 00:29:16,765
But Lisa takes it calmly.

519
00:29:17,925 --> 00:29:20,545
She plays one in the play
of three adopted children.

520
00:29:21,705 --> 00:29:25,585
Together they appear in different ways
Play against three family employees

521
00:29:25,685 --> 00:29:28,025
to win her father's inheritance.

522
00:29:31,425 --> 00:29:35,165
As the plot progresses, it escalates
Competition and Lisa is attacked.

523
00:29:35,685 --> 00:29:39,125
So if I get hit now,
I'm the person to make sure

524
00:29:39,165 --> 00:29:42,385
needs it to look, um, realistic.

525
00:29:43,045 --> 00:29:44,945
Attention is paid to every detail.

526
00:29:50,066 --> 00:29:52,524
And finished cutting
the whole thing looks like this.

527
00:30:00,797 --> 00:30:03,137
Oh, it looks, wow, it looks
very real from that angle.

528
00:30:03,477 --> 00:30:03,597
OK.

529
00:30:03,678 --> 00:30:04,178
Are you good with it?

530
00:30:04,417 --> 00:30:04,777
Yeah.

531
00:30:04,837 --> 00:30:05,417
Okay, great.

532
00:30:05,598 --> 00:30:05,957
Moving on.

533
00:30:06,377 --> 00:30:06,637
Thank you.

534
00:30:07,397 --> 00:30:09,897
Then Lisa has a break,
but there is no rest.

535
00:30:10,138 --> 00:30:13,297
Let's continue with her second job
as a social media manager.

536
00:30:13,877 --> 00:30:15,237
Isn't it incredibly tiring?

537
00:30:15,357 --> 00:30:16,598
It's very, very tiring.

538
00:30:16,797 --> 00:30:19,877
We have an exciting and
did not choose an easy path.

539
00:30:20,597 --> 00:30:23,097
And if you decide
would have to, corporate or acting?

540
00:30:23,257 --> 00:30:24,697
No, definitely acting.

541
00:30:24,898 --> 00:30:26,138
So the goal is yes.

542
00:30:26,197 --> 00:30:27,738
-Being a full time actress.

543
00:30:27,738 --> 00:30:28,277
Yes definitely.

544
00:30:28,297 --> 00:30:28,897
In any case.

545
00:30:28,957 --> 00:30:33,497
And as long as it isn't yet,
I rely on my laptop.

546
00:30:33,997 --> 00:30:39,217
It gives me security, it gives me, um,
Plannability, it gives me the freedom

547
00:30:39,277 --> 00:30:42,217
Choosing projects that I want to do
and not because I need the money.

548
00:30:42,578 --> 00:30:45,738
So I'm very, very grateful
for my jobs, but on days like today

549
00:30:45,777 --> 00:30:48,477
It's a bit tiring then.

550
00:30:48,738 --> 00:30:50,097
But it's okay.

551
00:30:50,617 --> 00:30:52,117
There are worse things in life.

552
00:30:52,637 --> 00:30:53,898
Fine, then throw me out.

553
00:30:55,017 --> 00:30:55,578
That's it.

554
00:30:55,977 --> 00:30:56,797
See you later.

555
00:30:57,937 --> 00:30:58,157
See you later.

556
00:30:58,417 --> 00:30:58,437
Bye.

557
00:30:58,437 --> 00:31:00,197
Bye.

558
00:31:04,797 --> 00:31:09,137
It's clear who wants to be an actor,
must want this with all my heart.

559
00:31:09,817 --> 00:31:13,117
How else would you do this?
endure incredibly long days of filming?

560
00:31:14,558 --> 00:31:18,058
Things are slowly returning to the villa
Night one, but still no peace.

561
00:31:18,577 --> 00:31:22,997
The team is there until late
Legs and it's not us.

562
00:31:24,277 --> 00:31:25,777
Salim is already sleeping back there.

563
00:31:26,517 --> 00:31:28,237
Salim, are you awake?

564
00:31:32,866 --> 00:31:34,246
Yes, it's half past twelve.

565
00:31:34,806 --> 00:31:37,266
Lisa is in her room,
waiting to be used.

566
00:31:39,146 --> 00:31:41,726
And we are waiting for it to continue.

567
00:31:45,386 --> 00:31:48,066
Yes, I'm happy if we can
are through because I'm through.

568
00:31:49,186 --> 00:31:50,326
That should be illegal.

569
00:31:50,746 --> 00:31:53,346
It's definitely in too
Germany, but it doesn't matter here.

570
00:31:53,886 --> 00:31:57,306
Yes, some people do
a twenty hour week.

571
00:31:57,346 --> 00:31:59,986
You're doing almost here today
a twenty hour day.

572
00:32:00,616 --> 00:32:02,666
You have to do it a bit
be crazy for this job?

573
00:32:03,006 --> 00:32:03,985
Yes, yes.

574
00:32:04,026 --> 00:32:07,146
I think if there isn't one
If it's fun, then it's pure hell.

575
00:32:07,326 --> 00:32:09,226
You don't have a fixed income.

576
00:32:09,276 --> 00:32:14,926
You have these extreme hours,
these extreme stresses, ah,

577
00:32:15,446 --> 00:32:17,506
totally irregular everyday life.

578
00:32:17,546 --> 00:32:20,366
So why should you take that upon yourself?
when you can do something else?

579
00:32:20,546 --> 00:32:22,906
These are also the most honest
Conversations somehow, that

580
00:32:22,946 --> 00:32:25,486
you then have on- That's right.

581
00:32:25,846 --> 00:32:27,746
At the end of a day like this.

582
00:32:27,846 --> 00:32:30,126
And I think it's worth it,
to stay there a little longer.

583
00:32:30,306 --> 00:32:34,106
Then you no longer have the strength
to say: "Everything is great." Despite

584
00:32:34,146 --> 00:32:37,026
all adversities as an actress
Lisa remains determined.

585
00:32:37,606 --> 00:32:41,506
According to her experiences in India
they also imagine long term

586
00:32:41,546 --> 00:32:43,505
to gain a foothold in Europe again.

587
00:32:43,546 --> 00:32:44,106
Ciao.

588
00:32:44,146 --> 00:32:44,176
Ciao.

589
00:32:44,176 --> 00:32:44,485
Ciao.

590
00:32:45,366 --> 00:32:51,366
At the end of my time in Mumbai I can...
attend a photo shoot by Anand.

591
00:32:52,346 --> 00:32:56,225
Thanks to him I have insight into
get a whole new world.

592
00:32:56,266 --> 00:33:00,246
A world of a few people
makes celebrities and others

593
00:33:00,286 --> 00:33:01,926
disappear behind the scenes.

594
00:33:03,126 --> 00:33:06,366
Many of them struggle for years
for a life in this industry,

595
00:33:07,466 --> 00:33:11,386
without real security, without too
know whether it's enough at some point.

596
00:33:14,106 --> 00:33:17,606
Do you want to take a photo together?

597
00:33:18,566 --> 00:33:19,746
Should we do one together?

598
00:33:19,886 --> 00:33:20,386
Yeah.

599
00:33:20,466 --> 00:33:20,726
All right.

600
00:33:22,026 --> 00:33:24,366
And probably is
exactly the Bollywood.

601
00:33:24,726 --> 00:33:25,846
A place full of dreams.

602
00:33:26,856 --> 00:33:28,806
Not everyone by any means
of which comes true.

603
00:33:29,426 --> 00:33:32,485
But when I look at Anand,
then it is clear to me:

604
00:33:32,866 --> 00:33:34,566
His dream has come true.

605
00:33:35,146 --> 00:33:37,146
My best friend is a Bollywood star.

606
00:33:38,826 --> 00:33:42,186
My best friend is a Bollywood actor.

607
00:33:44,066 --> 00:33:45,966
Because you don't like the term star.

608
00:33:46,036 --> 00:33:49,106
When I call you a star, this is
something you react allergic to.

609
00:33:51,566 --> 00:33:54,426
Anand still says he doesn't
Star, but for me he is one.
