Match Bollywood cinema: Malaysian Prime Minister Badawi

Kuala Lumpur, May 30:  Malaysian Prime Minister Adullah Ahmad Badawi wants his country's cinema to rival Bollywood, the Mumbai-based Indian film industry, since he feels his nation has all the cultural diversity and richness India offers in its movies.
