Film Shows
Indian Bollywood movies are immensely popular in Egypt. The popularity of actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, etc. is massive in Egypt. Egypt also has the presence of some Indian satellite channels such as ZeeAflam TV, which often telecast Indian movies and serials dubbed into Arabic or with Arabic subtitles. Despite their fascination with Bollywood dance and music, Egyptians also have very strong appreciation for classical music and dance forms of India.
