Bollywood is pushing against Hollywood for a bigger share of the foreign-film market in China, Satarupa Bhattacharjya reports.
Indian ambassador Ashok K. Kantha says that his Chinese friends are all able to sing the songs of Awara (1951), or "The Tramp", a Hindi film.
Kantha was speaking last week to guests gathered at a Beijing auditorium for the opening of a just-ended Indian film festival.
