Desi SpiderMan is a low-budget Indian film about an Indian Spiderman! It contains every essential element of a stereotypical Indian film - romance, fighting, comedy, damsel in distress, washing laundry, more fighting, and (most importantly) Bollywood-style music and dancing scenes!
The internet is not at all sure about the origin of this film. There are some rumors floating around that this is the brainchild of a man whose dream was to make a movie with all of his meager savings, and this (comedically low-budget) film is the result. The other and more likely explanation is that this film was meant to be a spoof of Indian film and culture. Either way, it is a very funny and silly film, enjoyed by Indians and non-Indians alike.
Below I have attached a dance video clip from the movie. In this, the woman sings "Spiderman, Spiderman, tune churaya mere dil ka chain . . . " which means "Spiderman, Spiderman, you have stolen the peace of my heart".
Also, fun fact. This was filmed in the city where my fiancé lives, and very close to where I am moving in June.
