Hindi version of the comics to have Bollywood songs

Archie comics are being launched in Hindi and Malayalam. But there is a Bollywood connection to it!

The Hindi version will have popular Bollywood songs incorporated to suit the situations! Trust film music to reach everywhere.

The iconic heartthrob Archie with his two girlfriends, Betty and Veronica will be mouthing Bollywood numbers in the book's Indian avatar.

Seventy years after its birth in the US, some titles of the Archie comics will be published this year in India. The move is to bring in a desi flavour to the comic.

So Archie and Veronica will dance to popular tracks like Aakhon ki gustakhiyaa or see the gang sing college songs like Purani Jeans and even yesteryear tracks!

Wonder if Archie will go crooning Tere mast mast do nain to Betty while Veronica sulks to Radha kaise na jale. Or will the comic hero simply go Mera mann....
