It has heavy influence to its bordering countries and South Asia.
Bollywood songs have a deliberately crafted with lyrics and mostly written by famous poets, then set to music, carefully choreographed to match the dance routine or script of the film. They are then sung by professional playback singers and usually lip-synched by the actors in movie rather than playing it in the background. Bollywood music do not necessarily have direct relationship to the subject of the film and it drive large-scale production numbers featuring elaborate choreography. Generally in one Bollywood movie there are on average 4 to 5 songs involved.
Some of the Genres of Bollywood music includes but are not limited to:
