Poor Bollywood celebs, some of which could use some attention, aren’t chased half as much as the ones in Hollywood. We know, for example, that the paparazzi have gone to great lengths to take photos of Britney and Angelina’s children.

Despite many labelling Indian cinema as a poor man’s version of Hollywood, the cream of Hollywood’s A-list film stars have nothing but love to show for their Indian counterparts. “I admire the work. I admire the way it has supported the industry. It’s incredible,” says Sylvester Stallone. “I have never been in India. It would be a great adventure and I look forward to it,” he adds. In response to Shahrukh’s candid confession about not being good enough for Hollywood, the humble star claims HE’S not talented enough to be cast in a Bollywood film!
Meanwhile, balding star Bruce Willis also sang their praises on the sidelines of the launch of the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in LA. ” Bollywood is doing great. They call it Bollywood for a reason; it is a good luck charm,” Willis added.
