Mourning and uncertainty in the capital of Bollywood

There are certainly many more serious and tragic implications to the terror attacks in India Wednesday than its effect on the film business. But it's testament to the scope of the event that Bollywood did not escape unscathed.

The main attack happened at the Taj Mahal, which as Asia correspondents Nyay Bhushan and Jonathan Landreth write in a dispatch, is to Bollywood what the Carlton is to Cannes.

And the attacks also targeted a movie theater, leading in prart to the shutdown of cinemas on Thursday. A number of films are slated to open this weekend, including Fox's "Max Payne" and Indian film "The President is Coming." Like everything else in India, uncertaitny and anxiety are currently reigning in Bollywood.
