Russell Peters says he hates Bollywood

Comedian Russell Peters, who is starring in Akshay Kumar's production Speedy Singhs, has revealed that he finds Bollywood films awful. The star says that he hates the Mumbai-based film industry and he does not plan to act in Bollywood.

In an interview with the PTI, Russell Peters has hurled his hatredness towards Bollywood films. The Indo-Canadian stand-up comedian said, "I hate Bollywood. The movies are all garbage, just terrible. It's my opinion, obviously there are billions who like and love them."

Meanwhile, Russell Peters has made it clear that neither he has ever seen Bollywood film in his life, nor he plans to star in one. He added, “I don't like all the singing, dancing and all the dramatic crying. I have never seen a Bollywood film in my life. I have refused doing it earlier and will do so in future. But I hope some filmmakers take a chance of making real movies."

However, Speedy Singhs is the dubbed version of Akshay's international production Breakaway with a backdrop of ice-hockey. Peters, 40, who was born in Canada to Anglo-Indian parents and has been doing stand-up comedy since the age of 19, is playing one of the lead roles in the movie.
