This is why the internet is so great. 20 years ago, hardly anyone in the US even knew about Bollywood, much less searched out their movies. Now, Hulu, the best TV/Movie site online, has inked a deal with Saavn, a Bollywood distribution company, to stream movies online.

Bollywood distrib Saavn has teamed up with Hulu to stream pics online, including “Sarkar,” one of many Indian adaptations of “The Godfather.”

For now there are five subtitled films available on Hulu besides 2005’s “Sarkar,” which stars Bollywood icon Amitabh Bachchan — “Hera pheri,” (2000) starring Akshay Kumar; 2004’s “Hulchul”; 2000’s Aishwarya Rai starrer “Dhaai akshar prem ke”; and 1992’s “Deewana.”

More films will be made available through the year.
