Among Bollywood's most popular actors, Anupam Kher has fans all over the world.
But he's one of the few celebs who reaches out to them, and posts interesting videos of his interactions.
His 'Encounters in NY' offers a lovely window to the world outside, who love Hindi movies even though they may not be Indians.

Here's looking at some of Anupam's lovely 'Encounters in NY':

When Kher asks him to sing a song, he chooses his version of Sholay called 'Sholinge'!
