"I spent childhood in the courtyard of the "Dostlug" (Friendship) movie theater. We gathered all over the yard and ran to the cinema twice a day to watch our favorite films "Bobby", "Zita and Gita", "Ram and Sham", "Revenge and Law". After the film, it was always considered a duty to buy a pair of photos in pink and black tones with the image of Rishi Kapoor and other Bollywood stars," said Aghasi.

"Everyone knows that such an abundance of colors, music, songs and dances can not be found in the cinema of other countries. That's why I celebrated my anniversary in the style of Bombay Dreams, which remained in the memory of all my friends . I have a special interest in India. I have recently visited Goa, where I also did large reports from Panaji, and the largest Ayurvedic center. But the most memorable for me was a report from the "Plantation of Spices", where I feel myself as my favorite actress of Indian cinema - Aishwarya Rai in the movie "Spices". In a word, Bollywood is the weak point of all those who love the bright colors of life and, of course, a happy end! I am confident that upcoming Bollywood Night show will also have great success among Baku public," she added.
