yo i am a 6ft 3, skinny dude trying to be muscular by hitting gym. has a brown skin tone and fairly sharp features. what are my chances in indian film industry and what's the pay like?

Firstly, there are nine main film industries in India :

Hindi - Bollywood
The four South Indian industries
Bengali
Bhojpuri, in Bihar - North India
Punjabi
Odiya, Eastern India
​

Secondly, you have a good height, but it is not necessary to be tall if one is talented. Example is Aamir Khan who's about 5'5"

About the muscular part, though there is a tendency for the heroes to be muscular, some of the fine actors are not so. For example, Naseeruddin Shah and Om Puri among the older lot and Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Siddharth among the newer lot.

Brown skin tone - Nawazuddin Siddiqui is dark brown and about Aamir's height as well, but is much celebrated.

About pay, I will again quote for Nawazuddin[1] :

Now coming to the point, Nawazuddin used to charge a few lakhs in his earlier films. But gradually increased his salary to Rs.5 to 6 crores!

Note however that debutants can be given thousands as well if their role is not substantial. High earners like Akshay Kumar or the three main Khans can charge some crores.

Also, The Hindi industry and the South Indian ones are more highly paying than the others.

Sorry but I don't have contacts.

But I wonder if @The_Showstopper has contacts in the fashion biz, if we go by his user-name. The fashion biz is also a stepping stone in India to the film world.

Nice.

So few weeks back, i was at a party and I really liked the song played on the dance floor.
Since the song wasnt in English, i decided to record it.
Then i began to seatch for it. Nudged a lot of my friends and finally came to know that the song belonged to a Roman lady called Kamelia.
I still dont understand the lyrics, but i luv the music. <3
After listening to the song, Jamahir, i want you to google abt her. Trust me you will be in for a shock.

@Nilgiri @django
Have you guys heard this song yet?

I heard it in a club I believe not too long back. I think kamelia is bulgarian or somethin.

All you gotta know is Amor means love

Actually bro I am fond of bengali music .Tahsan, bappa mazumder, arnab ,Sanjeev Chaudhary or singers like them. In old days James was favorite.I am very selective about Bengali singers though .
And some single songs from various singers ( international & mostly English)specially R&B ,and classical type slow song I have listened! Like celin Dion, George Michael,Lionel Richie , John Denver, Brian Adamsetc etc ...this list can be long ! Even can't remember all name together.

And also some old days Hindi movie song that are available here in my area. (I live in a small town of bangladesh , not in a city .)
Honestly never even heard all of those genre (names) that you just named as don't search them just listen good music that I can manage to get for me !

Here are my two favorite Bengali songs that non bengali fellows should love . First one is from sanjeev Chaudhary and another is from shironamhin.
Just best sound quality isn't available atm.
