Bollywood Story Slot

The stars of Bollywood might be India’s biggest celebrities, but they also enjoy special fondness in hearts across the world. And so it is that NetEnt devised Bollywood Story Slot, a five reel, nine payline Online slot that takes us on a whirlwind romantic adventure for star-crossed lovers whose parents naturally disapprove. They might not approve of this courtship, but any slots fan will no doubt approve of the. I think your question requires an explanation and a story for an answer. I have an unusual track-record when it comes to Bollywood. People who are my friends make it in Bollywood. Bollywood Story is a 5-reel slot with 9 fixed paylines. There are two wagering options that may be adjusted before a spin: a coin value ($0.01 to $1) and a bet level (up to 10), so a total bet may vary between $0.09 and $90 per spin. The first, second and third largest prizes in.

Bollywood Story is a 5-reel, fixed 9-pay line online slot created by NetEnt exclusively for ComeOn! Casino. It's based a traditional Indian movie – if you didn't know, 'Bollywood' is derived from the combination of 'Hollywood' and 'Bombay' – which was the previous name of the Indian capital, Mumbai. Bollywood is actually more productive than Hollywood, producing double the amount of films, and selling around one million tickets more annually.

Bollywood films typically have a romantic theme. Basically, boy meets girl, girl's father doesn't like boy, boy does tons of stuff to win girl, and everyone sings and dances a lot. The first Bollywood film was made in 1913 – a silent movie called 'Raja Harishchandra'. The first Bollywood film with sound came in 1931, and was called 'Alam Ara'.

The theme of this slot seems perfectly Bollywood-esque. There's a handsome man, a sultry babe, and a pair of parents who don't seem too happy about life in general. The images that are used do seem more Disney than Bollywood, though. They are joined on the reels by playing card symbols ten to ace. There are only nine lines, and they are fixed. You can select your coin size from 0.01 to 1,00, and the number of coins you wish to gamble with each spin from one to ten. When you're ready to make a song and dance of things, hit the spin button.

Payout & bonus rounds

Payouts commence with three times your bet-per-spin for any three identical playing card symbols. The jackpot is won by landing five 'Bollywood Story' logos on a pay line. That wins you 1,000x your wager.

A number of flowered frames float around the screen during each spin. There's a minimum of two, and a maximum of four. When the reels settle, the symbols that finish beneath the frames turn into wilds. The wilds substitute for all other symbols aside from the scatter symbols.

A collection of blue gems acts as the free spins scatter symbol. You need three or more scatters to trigger the free spins feature. You win ten for three, twenty for four and thirty for five. During bonus spins the number of floating wilds rises to between three and six. Free spins can be re-triggered.

That's as far as it goes for Bollywood Story. It's a very fast-paced game, but more features could have been included. The soundtrack at least sounds authentic – after a few spins you'll probably feel like going for a curry! If you're a fan of Bollywood movies, then you're likely to approve of this exclusive, ComeOn! Casino NetEnt-produced slot.

Lockdown Ki Love Story (transl. Love story in lockdown) is an Indian television drama series that aired from 31 August 2020 to 23 January 2021 on StarPlus.^[1][2] Produced by Rashmi Sharma Telefilms,^[3] it starred Sana Sayyad and Mohit Malik.^[4][5]

Plot[edit]

Set in Prayagraj, the series follows the love story of Dhruv and Sonam who are forced to share a house with their respective families due to the COVID-19 pandemic lockdown.

Dhruv's mother Nutan and his aunt Sheetal oppose their relationship due to Sonam's modern ways while her father Pratap finds Dhruv's family very backward in their thinking. The main supporters of the union are Sonam's mother Subhadra and Dhruv's father Shashikant. Despite Nutan, Sheetal, and Pratap' numerous plots, the wedding of Dhruv and Sonam was still on. Nutan, Sheetal, Pratap, and Tanu collaborated to stop their wedding. Their plan is to get Dhruv to marry his childhood friend Shweta (Milky),who has always had a crush on Dhruv. Milky persuaded Sonam to go to her mother to do bridal makeup while she impersonates Sonam as the bride. Sonam does so and Milky's mother manages to drug her to sleep. Sonam wakes up too late and witnesses Dhruv marrying Milky. Sonam tries to explain why she wasn't at the wedding, but Milky and Nutan place all the blame on Sonam. This went on to a point when Nutan burns herself intentionally. Dhruv, in a fit of rage, throws Sonam and her family out of the house.

Dhruv does not accept Milky as his wife, despite his mother's pleas. Sonam realizes the truth of what happened on the wedding day and decides to expose Milky to Dhruv as a cheat. Later, Sonam finds out she is positive for COVID-19 and the police force the Jaiswals to let her stay in the house as she was staying there before.

In an attempt to return Sonam to Mumbai, Dhruv sends kidnappers after her. However, the kidnappers mistakenly take Milky instead of Sonam. Hulchal and Babloo save Milky from the kidnappers but they call Milky's mother and demand she tell the truth about what happened on the wedding day to the Jaiswals in exchange for Milky. Their plan almost succeeds but Dhruv spoils it by finding Milky and bringing her back before Milky's mother could confess. Dhruv reveals that Sonam never had COVID-19 and it was all a ruse to get her in the house. Later when Dhruv wants to send Sonam out of the house Shasikant opposes his decision and decides to conduct a voting poll for Sonam to stay in the house or not. Sonam wins the voting poll and stays in the house. Later Nutan decides to Dhruv's future with a coin toss and Dhruv stops that. Later, he knows that both sides are tail so that his mother can win and reveals the truth to everyone.

Dhruv hears Sonam's side of the story and challenges her to bring him evidence of this in seven days. If she fails, Sonam will return to Mumbai on the eighth day. Now Raghav, Dhruv's estranged cousin, enters the story. He hates Dhruv and plans on using Sonam, with whom he is in love, to get revenge against Dhruv. He also has a video of Milky's mother admitting to what happened in the wedding.Due to a misunderstanding created by Raghav, Dhruv throws Sonam out of the house again where Raghav kidnaps her and tries to forcefully marry her. Dhruv rescues Sonam and finally sees the evidence. Dhruv confronts the conspirators and he decides to marry Sonam. In order to stop this, Milky tries to burn herself in the kitchen. She then files a case against Shashikant, Nutan and Sheetal, accusing them of burning her for dowry. In order to bring Shashikant and Nutan, Sonam makes a deal with Milky and Raghav that if Milky releases the Dhruv family then she will marry Raghav. Dhruv demands Sonam to marry him after Milky puts a fake acting in front of him that she realised her mistake and wanted to unite them. On the day of Sonam and Dhruv's marriage, Sonam writes a letter to Dhruv apologizing to him and Dhruv rushes to Sonam after he finds out that Raghav is forcefully marrying Sonam, from Raghav's mother Sumitra. Dhruv and Raghav engage in a fight and Raghav shoots Sonam but Dhruv saves her and took the bullet on her. The next morning Sonam notices that Dhruv is acting like a child and he lost his memory. To cheer up Dhruv, Sonam dresses up like a kid and helps Dhruv to face all problems he was facing because of the other children. In the beginning, Milky loved Dhruv but now she hates him because he is equal to a child and doesn't want him in her life. So she kidnaps Dhruv with her mother's help but Sonam finds Dhruv. An attacker tries to murder Dhruv but she saves him seeing her love for Dhruv. Nutan apologises to Sonam for the mistrust. Nutan and Sonam throw Milky out of their home but it is later revealed that Milky made a child acted Dhruv, sign on the house properties. Milky throws Sonam and Dhruv's family out of their house and Milky blackmails Dhruv. Due to the stress, Dhruv falls unconscious and admitted to the hospital. Sheetal apologise to Sonam and starts helping her to mislead Milky and get back their house and they get successful. Dhruv recovers and his memory returns.
