Kishore Lulla
Face it; AB is voted as the star of the
millennium in a BBC poll, the King Khans
are the hottest draw in the West today and
Hindi movies today fall in the Grade A class
today. Wake up and praise Kishore Lulla.
His
Eros Distributors is the largest overseas
Hindi film distributor commanding over
70% of the market. He's practically responsible
for the new trend where films are made
specifically for Asian Indian viewers.
But a restless Lulla couldn't rest on
his laurels.
While
relaxing on a Mediterranean cruise, Lulla
had a brainwave. Result? B4U - the premium
digital channel. Teaming up with L N Mittal,
the steel magnate & Gokul Binani,
the metal trader, Lulla fashioned a slick
musical offering that shook up established
giants like MTV and Channel V.
Success
bred more success and Lulla has broadened
his fare, dishing out glossy Bollywood-driven
content. Sure, there's no lull time with
Lulla around.
