Mostly Sunny

  • Watched the above documentary "Mostly Sunny" on Netflix.
  • Trust me people this is a must watch.
  • It shows how the world changes between Los Angeles, California and Mumbai, India.
  • It is personal story of Karenjit Kaur aka Sunny Leone.
  • Goes to place where she grew up in Canada and shows her family, her husband and brother.
  • This is probably from 2017 when she did not have kids and now kids are added to her family and that is good for her and her family.
  • This is a must watch.
  • It shows the difference between Hollywood and Bollywood.
  • It shows how much difficult it is to work anywhere be it Bollywood or Hollywood.
  • Thousands of people work in Bollywood and how difficult it is make even a single costume.
  • Hundreds of people are involved in lighting, makeup.
  • Sometimes people need to run around and make things ready.
  • That is a task by itself.
  • Casting couch is also shown
  • It seems "willing to compromise" is a must to work in Bollywood.
  • And now they are also putting a line of compromise in application form with checkbox.
  • In Hollywood the problem is you may work very hard but few make it to a place where their future is "settled".
  • Often at the end of their 10 year odd career in porn industry they are left with no money or future and that is a problem in Hollywood.
  • Sunny Leone works hard and that is the reason for her success.
  • Sometimes you get to learn more from such documentaries than from movies.
  • Now I fear the Bollywood industry will be affected by Corona Virus.
  • Because the conditions the craftsmen and other staff live and work are too cramped like in slums.
  • But now there has to be social distancing and quarantine period and so on.
  • Possibly the teams cannot work in multiple projects or locations.
  • Maybe they may shift to a certain location and have to stay put till shooting completes.
  • Costs will increase and quantity of movies may decrease.
  • But there is a chance quality can improve and lifestyle can also improve.
