Goodness Gracious Me

This clip is a parody of bollywood movies. It shows the representations of asians in bollywood movies and shows how they accept the stereotypes and representations which have been given to them. This can be seen when the man and the woman are dancing at the start of the clip which is mocking the indian dance sequences.







This clip is funny as it shows a stereotype of typical asian parents, it shows how the parents' expectations are above average and that excellent grades are still not good enough as they always have something to be compared to. This shows that asian culture is very strict as parents always want the best out of their children.






The clip above is funny because the man is trying to say that the queen of england is indian which is not true. By telling his reasons, he is telling us stereotypes of an indian family, for example, children living with parents until they are married. The man is telling the audience the stereotypes of an indian family and is agreeing with them as he is using them stereotypes to prove other ethnic backgrounds to be the same as his own.
