Chris, from chicago--the guy i was saying interviewd us, kept filming. All a sudden the man came in and got really mad that he was filming(he knew the whole time) and freaked out. it was extras against manager for the rest of the time.
Shannon (from newyork) said if we weren't on set in half an hour we were leaving. 2 girls tried to escape but security caught them and said if they would leave it was a 3000rbs fine! i didnt mind sitting around, i just thought we needed better communication and should at least be able to watch the set, or walk around a bit.
On set we held drinks and had to "sway and look happy" I don't know anyone that sways and talks at a party, but whatever. the director told me and the two isabelles that we weren' happy enough. we had one more chance or we were out. I SERIOUSLY DON"T KNOW HOW I COULD HAVE BEEN HAPPIER. but i did it. and they were happy. Jody had an action part where she got to give "cheers" to the main actor. we were actually on set with some bollywood shizz. Our second scene was at a bar. I got to dance with teh mayor, as well be in teh same conversation circle as 3 of the main actors. i might make it on screen in this scene. here is for hoping. it was so cheesy. we ahd to raise our right arms and pump them. that was our dance... oh my goodness. Our third scene was at a dinner party, again with drinks. i was dancing and the director told me i was dancing too hard and had to soften up. haha. fernando (my friend from argentina) turns to e and says, "oh, you crazy canadian! "
The favorite part of my day was meeting all these great people. i met people from germany, from england, cheq just all over. and they were all great. we become like a small family. it was actually really sad to leave them. There were just so many funny moments-- from our ugly costumes, and i mean UGLY, to our crazy meals. we just all enjoyed conversation. OH, and this guy from germany had to best dance moves. i couldnt stop laughing. he was FRIGGEN hilarouis. all the girls had to get our make up done and these guys were bad. i mean b-a-d bad! i just couldn't stop laughing. i really tried, bui couldn't. i was crying. as they were diong my make up. i had a giggle fit! everyone was just dieing laughing... oh man. my bollywood family.
after a few of us went out to this place called polly ester. a few girls and i danced the night away. finally i got to dance in india. i just love dancing! and i didn't only whip out the right arm pump that we learnt earlier in the day, i whipped out the wiggle step too! ahah. the indian woman here sure can move! man, i wish i could dance like them. too bad i amjust a little white, canadian girl. haha. saying goodbye was bitter. i spent 14 straight hours with these people, and i felt like we were exposed to everything about each other. plus we all looked like highschool drama crap. haha.
ps. i forgot to add this so it wont make sense where it is...
the whole day the extra organizer tried to put his arm around me. he told me i was his girlfriend. i told him no. and he said i needed to have an indian boyfriend. (like that would be hard to find..) at the end of the night he paid me and then tried to lean in for a kiss. i actually had to push him away! ahaha. so awkward. so awkward.
as well, 3 of our friends escaped. they met us at polly ester and told me they ran half way home. home is about a 1.5 hour drive. they must have hated it! they were hilarius though. i mean, who escapes bollywood? haha. love it.
there are only two words to describe bollywood
1) gong
2)show
GONGSHOW!
