Lea Michele In Bollywood Musical?
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)

Posted: 4/5/14 at 3:18pmThe movie sounds pretty terrible anyway. What is Dreamworks doing with "The Ramayana"?! Not to be bias with Dreamworks or Disney, but come on: BOLLYWOOD SUPERSTAR MONKEY?! Ouch. Updated On: 4/5/14 at 03:18 PM

Lea Michele as a "Bollywood Superstar Monkey" called Pinki?
That sounds truly outrageous.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Having never heard or watched Ms Michele perform on[in?] Glee, after listening to her rendition of Broadway Baby, I think the role in this Bollywood movie would be perfect for her.
Maybe this is the new way to get noticed-sing a hit song in an animated movie=even if you are a singing monkey !

Posted: 4/6/14 at 11:05amI'm actually surprised Lea's agent thinks this is a good idea. If I were managing her, I'd try to get her a guest spot on Mad Men as a Barbra Streisand-like beatnik. Most of the cast would smirk at Lea's acting ability, but at least January Jones could rest easy that she wasn't the worst actress on Mad Men.

Typical Dreamworks, casting famous people in their animated movies regardless of voice acting skill.
Also, real Bollywood movies don't have the actor sing his or her respective songs. In fact, each song is usually sung by a different person.
Jimmy, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? It's almost 9 PM!

He means it would be wildly inappropriate casting.
But what's so ridiculous about the title of the thread? It's the same title as the article that it's referencing. (Isn't it?)

Oh I see. Lea Michele seems to pick some very obscure projects. Besides GLEE she really hasn't done anything noteworthy on tv or film. Perhaps her alleged nasty attitude is what's holding her back.

This is the original article announcing the possibility of such a film.
