Terry Crews wants to dance in Bollywood film

In an interview with The Times of India, Crews said that he, “always wanted to visit India. It’s such an exotic and beautiful place.” He added, “I tried some of the paneer dishes. I always eat Indian food like dal and garlic naan in LA. We love it. I didn’t get a chance to go really far out simply because it was just a short visit.”

He further spoke about Bollywood and said, “Everybody around the globe wants what India has simply because it really satisfies a need in so many ways. I’m a big fan of music and dance. In fact, I am a dancer first. When you look at the culture and the way they’ve incorporated big musical performances into the movies, you don’t get that in America. It comes along once in a blue moon, like a Wicked. When I watch these major stars dancing to the amazing music, I miss it. It reminds me of the old Hollywood.”

Crews also mentioned that he wanted to meet Shah Rukh Khan, “I would love to dance, just like the stars in Bollywood. I want to mention how Shah Rukh Khan has become this super international star. I haven’t met him yet, but I’m looking forward to that. To me, he is a true example of Tom Cruise-level Indian talent that has taken over the world. His brand and his name is like those of Cristiano Ronaldo. It’s enormous,” he said.
