The loveable galli was retro revived in Ishqiya.
D: Dabangg
The years biggest hit. So what if till date many dont know how to spell it or what it means? The money came hud hud in the bank.
E: Ethanasia
Have to give this one to Sanjay Leela Bhansali. He killed so many jokes because he came up with it first. It was his Guzaarish that Euthanasia becomes Ethanasia.

Take a bow,class 2010: Abhishek Chaubey ( Ishqiya ),Vikramaditya Motwane ( Udaan ),Anusha Rizvi ( Peepli [Live ),Abhishek Sharma ( Tere Bin Laden ),Habib Faisal ( Do Dooni Chaar ),Abhinav Kashyap ( Dabangg ),Maneesh Sharma ( Band Baajaa Baaraat ).

The dude of the year. With Do Dooni Chaar (his directorial debut) and
Band Baajaa Baaraat (which he wrote),he captured the zing
of middle-class Delhi: its aspirations and lingo,its binness and
mauj.
I: Item Number
The unique selling point of every movie.
J: Jokes starring Rajini
Nobody could escape the Rajini joke express. The never ending jokes made for incessant forwards,retweets and status updates. My favourite? When Rajinikanth looks in a mirror the mirror shatters,because not even glass is stupid enough to get in between Rajinikanth and Rajinikanth.
K: Khan
My Name Is Khan and Im not a terrorist said SRK. Khaano mein se Khan,Tees Maar Khan says Akshay Kumar.
L: Love
Karan Johar made it Luv Storys,Dibakar Bannerjee added Sex next to it in Love Sex Aur Dhoka while Bitto Sharma of Band Baajaa Baaraat asked the heroine if she would degi love. Bollywoods fascination with the L word continued.

The Pakistani starlet might not have much to do with Bollywood yet but shes fultoo Bollywood,much more than other actresses. Lets wager: the Bigg Boss inmate will sign a film pronto.
