On other hand, a movie about a "Guru" gets nominated for maximum Razzie awards (Oscar equivalent for worst movies)

99%. Ok - that is too harsh - considering the reviews that "Love Guru" got - especially off-coloured jokes and poop humour.

But again, IMHO, Bollywood and Hollywood should never be compared. Both have different target audiences. However, for each Govinda, Akshay Kumar, Johny Lever and others that make crappy comedy movies - Hollywood has Adam Sandler, Will Farell and likes

Wait till Pink Panther 2 releases in India. He will go head over heals to promote his daughter-in-law and try to get her an Oscar nomination.

He too is working with Johnny Depp in Shantaram
