Must you go to acting school to become an actress in Bollywood?

Ok, so do you HAVE to go acting school? Or can I learn it off from the computer? I saw a website where I can learn acting and perform it in front of my family. Also if you must, how many years should you be in acting school? Also when you go to audition for bollywood, do they ask for a paper that shows how long you've been in acting school? Because my friends acting school doesn't give report cards or papers showing how long or how good I was.

1. Hello Dear Cookie, I think you alreaedy know the answer to your question. Please don't be in a state of denial. How many actors/acresses have you seen in this world who by any chance have come to this profession by learning acting from internet?? Well I'll tell you: No one. So, even if you do a course from an acting school you are not sure to make it through, it's tough. So you will need all the help you can get. Of course you can know minor steps from internet, but trust me it won't make you a bollywood star. You need to have the looks, the style the aura and most of all good acting. Which I think only acting scools can teach you. If I were you, internet is ok if I were to perform in my colledge/school, but a no no if I were to make it to bollywood. I dnt wanna discourage you, but just want u to realise: GO join a good acting/dance school now, it's always an added advantage. 73% of bollywood starts have done a formal acting classes from good acting schools. Thanks.
