The influence of cinema in our country is so huge that even areas such as Food and Fashion need to keep updated with the latest trends in tinsel-town. How else can you explain the fact that a restaurant in the by-lanes of Masjid (Mumbai) serves a dish named Sanju Baba Chicken? The dish came into existence after the Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt paid a visit to this joint and suggested a recipe to the owner who not just added it to the menu but also christened it after the actor. There are many such instances. Take for example a popular juice-wallah in the suburb of Mulund (Mumbai) who names his juices after the latest Bollywood release. So while this week, you have a juice called Jab We Met, the next week you sip into a milkshake called Golmaal. </li><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p><li>Fashion is yet another area which has always been influenced by Hindi films. Right from bell-bottoms worn in the cinema of the 70s to the latest low-waist jeans of today, youngsters are completely aware of the latest trends in fashion thanks to cinema. So you have girls rushing in to get the Patialas after Kareena sizzled in them in the smash hit Jab We Met while guys even styled their hair like Salman Khans in Tere Naam. </li><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p><li>Whats more! Even countrys major Fashion events see a Bollywood celebrity walking the ramp for their favourite designer. </li></ul></span>
