A Bollywood is a word for a "Hindu cinema," and is a nickname given to the Indian film industry. Nollywood is a documentary film. Tollywood is another word for a Benglai cinema.

I know that Bollywood indicates the movie industry in Bombay India where they make those popular Indian movies (popular with Indians who like singing, dancing, and colorful costumes instead of plots and characters).I think the others are trying to cash in on the same concept using the first letter of some location, maybe Nashville and Taiwan, for someother ethnic movies.
