This Fast Company article on the comeback of 3-D movies at theatres here in the United States, made me go all mushy inside with nostalgiee. Do you remember the first desi 3-D movie "Chota Chetan", circa 1984, along with those dorky blue and red cardboard glasses one wore to see this movie? My failing memory prevents me from giving you a brief synopsis of Chetan* apart from commenting that it left me disappointed for the 3-D tricks weren't all that many. Also for the longest time afterwards, I had these 3-D Spider Man comics that had to be read using those cardboard glasses.

Now this also got me thinking as to how we can use this technology to enhance the whole Bollywood experience. And since my brain is currently in its state of evening coma, the quickest application I can think of now is to make certain aspects of the Bollywood song 3-D. Just imagine what jhatka heights we can reach if we 3-D-ize khalnayika Madhuri's choli thrusts for the gentlemen, and tapori Govinda's sexy pant thrusts for the ladies?! (Yes, you may safely conclude that this writer isn't getting any). I invite you, kind readers, to put on your kinky hats, and come up with other 3-D applications for Bollywood, and apply them to scenes from movies, past and present.

Meanwhile, I will try to find out what is really behind the choli.
