Frankie goes to Bollywood

This is too cool!

I've always loved Bollywood, and now, after only a few months since I declared my half-hearted love of Chelsea FC, I learn that Yash Raj Films (Bollywoods biggest and best production-house) is making a film with Chelsea!

The film, out next year, stars three of Bollywood's most famous actors/actresses and on top of that, Frank Lampard, John Terry, and Jose Morhiniowdoyouspellthis will all have parts!

Chelsea’s Business Affairs Director Paul Smith said: “Naturally we are delighted to be involved in a Bollywood movie and we take it as a big compliment to be approached with this story line and to be associated with this calibre of actors and actresses.

“Bollywood is not just one of the most successful movie genres in the world, it is also one of the most successful art forms as it has a unique character and popularity.

“From a Chelsea perspective, we have been looking at ways to reach out to the Brit-Asian community and play a leading role by involving them more in football.”


Filming apparently started in the second half of 2006 (and hopefully is still going on).

I have to get a part!
It's always been one of my ambitions to be an extra in a Bollywood movie.
