So What Is Project #501?
If you’re as big a Bollywood fan as Charles Misra and all the crew here at the Bollywood Tee Shop, it might also interest you to know that Charles has also written quite an astounding book titled ‘Project #501 – The Goras’
Guide To Bollywood And Beyond’
As his Bollywood love affair began, Charles set himself a
task of herculean proportions. That being, to watch 501 Bollywood and Indian films back to back, in a monumental quest to learn as much as is humanly possible about Indian life, culture and spirit. A mammoth movie marathon if ever there was one. And what he discovered whilst completely true, is utterly fantastical, completely unbelievable, thoroughly wonderful, sometimes
disturbing, poignant, tear jerking and more often than not, completely comical.
Radio X’s Chris Moyles and Dominic Byrne were also in awe of Project #501, describing the book as not just ‘a great idea… but a really great idea’
Dom also went on to say ‘I don’t know much about Bollywood, but get this book and you’ll be an expert’
Project #501 has also been described as 'outrageous, fascinating and absolutely hilarious' and also 'the only book about Bollywood that you will ever need to read'
So, if you love Bollywood and Indian cinema, you need to
read this book. If you have never seen a Bollywood film in your life, and you
have absolutely no idea as to what ‘K3G’ might be, you absolutely, definitely
must read this book. Immediately. Right now. Don’t delay!
