All the Bollywood songs are equally popular in Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Nepali, and Sri Lankan populations. As per the Census Bureau's American Community Survey 2005 (estimates), the Asian Indian population in St. Louis is 8277 (10000 including the Indian subcontinent). Furthermore, this population is growing at an average of 106% per year. Though simple, the concept of a Bollywood has significant potential since there is no Bollywood FM in major US cities including St Louis. We would differentiate ourselves by keeping the focus on Indian Subcontinent population.
