  • Khorana Peepli Live FINAL
    Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica 66 Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica: Remediating the “Bollywoodization” of Indian TV News Sukhmani Khorana Lecturer University of Wollongong Wollongong, Australia [email protected] Introduction: Evolution of “Bollywoodization” in Indian TV news In the third edition of her pioneering book on the Indian media business, Vanita Kohli-Khandekar makes the following observation: There are two media segments that define the contour, body and tastes of the Indian market. Television is one of them, the other being film. Both have a mesmerising hold over Indian audiences―and even over investors and advertisers.1 This article begins with this note because of the increasingly central place occupied by television in the Indian media sphere and the uniquely Indian context of the mutual interdependence of the television and film industries. While television has appropriated Hollywood film genres since its inception,2 in India, popular film culture is increasingly drawing on the pre-eminence of satellite television. A grasp of these facets of the subcontinent’s television story is essential before examining how TV news has taken on discursive and practice-based elements of the nation’s popular film culture, Bollywood. This will be undertaken through a close textual analysis of two recent Bollywood films, Peepli Live (2010) and No One Killed Jessica (2011). Both feature television journalism as an important narrative catalyst, or a remediator for the socio-political issues faced by the protagonist(s). In doing this, the films themselves turn into a remediation device for the Bollywoodization of news on Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica 67 Indian television.

    German rights for Peepli Live acquired before official Berlinale Special Screening Mumbai, 15 February 2010: After rave audience and critics reviews at the Sundance Film Festival, Peepli Live, directed by Anusha Rizvi, co‐produced by UTV Motion Pictures & Aamir Khan Productions has just been picked up by specialty film German distribution company Rapid Eye Movies. Theatrical release for Peepli Live in Germany is planned for third quarter of 2010. Rapid Eye has also acquired the Home Video and Television for the territory. Stephan Holl, founder of Rapid Eye Pictures commented on his acquisition, "We are thrilled to bring to the German audience a true Indian art house film that entertains whilst telling a serious story" Amrita Pandey, VP, International Distribution and Syndication, UTV Motion Pictures, said, "Rapid Eye is an ideal distribution partner for us to plan a theatrical Germany release for the film." Peepli Live is Anusha Rizvi’s first feature. It is a fresh and intelligently spun satire of the real‐life epidemic of farmer suicides that have plagued India for the past decade. With a deft hand, Rizvi infuses humor and buoyancy in depicting this tragic predicament, illuminating the true colors of many corridors of Indian society. Peepli Live, is the first Indian film ever to be selected at the Sundance Film Festival (World Cinema Dramatic competition) and is also screening in out of competition at the Berlin Film Festival. Critics who have watched the film say: “A peppy screwball comedy with elements of social satire... Debuting writer‐director Anusha Rizvi manages to wrest a lively feature out of a gravely serious issue, capturing the desperation of India's village farmers, as well as the nation's shift from agriculture to industrialization, without losing sight of the entertainment principle.” – Rob Nelson, VARIETY “A comic gem set in India's beleaguered rural communities..

In past era one of the major themes rural has been an integral part of Bollywood storytelling. However over the year’s Hindi cinema has changed in terms of film making, content, representation of issues and technological changes. But during the transition of modern Cinema some of the popular themes have vanished. Cinema become bold and creative today and brings different genres with ample of independent filmmakers. The present paper deals with the study of films which depicted the village theme and also explore the causes of disappearance of village theme.

  • Semester: Fall 2015 Office Hours: MW 12-1, PAR 27
    UGS 303 Bollywood, India, and After Instructor: Shingavi, S – Cross-lists: N/A [email protected] Flags: N/A Unique #: 61495, 61500, 61505, 61510, 61515, TA: 61520 Computer Instruction: N Semester: Fall 2015 Office Hours: MW 12-1, PAR 27 Description: Bollywood cinema became a global phenomenon sometime after the economic liberalization of India. It became, in many ways, the cultural ambassador for an “India Shining,” the impossible dream of uninterrupted growth, for the rest of the world. But Bollywood’s roots were much grittier, with the social films of the 60s and the “Angry Young Men” films of the 1970s and 1980s, the progressive theater, and more. This long history of Bollywood is also in many ways a reflection of important historical changes that India has undergone: urbanization, globalization, uneven economic development. This class is broken up (more or less) into four historical periods: 1947-1975 (the era of high nationalism); 1975-1991 (the Emergency to the Economic Reforms); 1991-2004 (from Mandir, Masjid, Mandal to “India Shining”); and 2004-present. We will trace representations of India in cinema by looking at three classic landscapes: the country, the city (Bombay), and the slums. The goal of organizing the class in this way is not only to provide a sort of filmic history of India, but also to see how changes in the economy and in the social organization of India affected cultural representations of stock figures (the peasant, the slum dweller, the super-rich urbanite, etc.). We will also be particularly interested in considering representations of women, Muslims, and the lower castes (also called scheduled or backward castes).

  • FILMS and SOCIETY One of My Previous Students from South Korea Had Posed a Question
    www.ijcrt.org © 2018 IJCRT | Volume 6, Issue 2 April 2018 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Ms Swagata Chakravorty Assistant Professor of the Department of Languages. T.John College,Bangalore University B-402,Casa Ansal Apartment,No 18,Bannerghatta Road,Bangalore-560076 FILMS AND SOCIETY One of my previous students from South Korea had posed a question, ``Madam, I have watched plenty of Hindi movies. A lot of skin exposure and violence is usually what the film focuses on. But during my visit into this country, I found a sharp contrast between the reality and the reel world. People here are austere, bent towards religiousness and extremely moralistic. Why then do you portray a misleading image to the rest of the world.’’ The question struck me and I got immersed in a realm of musing and pondering. Was it our sundry, vibrant, ever evolving society which has been the backdrop of our films since time immemorial Or Is it the nitty- gritty of the movies which in the long run shape, modify and redefine society. Citizens often criticise the recent movies as the source of crime and moral degradation. Late back in 1963 Gaban (written by Munshi Premchand) portrayed a clerk’s deteriorating moralistic values.Shatranj ke khiladi(written by Munshi Premchand) is another masterpiece which reminds us the fatal downfall of the royal families engrossed in chess, neglecting their respective duties. I should not forget to mention the name of `Parineeta’, a popular novel by Sarat Chandra Chatterjee, reviving feminist sentiments of a woman torn in between two men who are equally essential and choice worthy.
