  • THE ISSUE of NATIONAL INTEGRATION in BOLLYWOOD with SPECIAL REFERENCE to LAGAAN and CHAK DE! INDIA By: Shashi Prajapati
    Episteme: an online interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary & multi-cultural journal Bharat College of Arts and Commerce, Badlapur, MMR, India Volume 8, Issue 2 September 2019 THE ISSUE OF NATIONAL INTEGRATION IN BOLLYWOOD WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO LAGAAN AND CHAK DE! INDIA By: Shashi Prajapati Abstract: India is a country of diverse identity where each individual identifies himself/herself with regard to his/ her class, caste, religion, gender, language, region etc. Sometimes these identities lead to the conflicting situations especially when one is obsessed with any particular identity. This may sometimes lead to the threat to our national integrity. In such a case, maintaining the togetherness becomes a tough task. The contribution of Bollywood in this regard is not encouraging especially in the last few decades. The obsession of Bollywood with hero worship has done the huge damage to our society. Most of the films in the name of national integration create a narrow vision of Hindu-Muslim harmony. Films based on public participation are rare to find. Keeping these facts into consideration, the present paper picks up two classic Bollywood movies of 21st century - Lagaan and Chak De! India which relate the story of public participation. Keywords: National Integration, Nation building process, Patriarchy, Bollywood. 60 BCAC-ISSN-2278-879 Episteme: an online interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary & multi-cultural journal Bharat College of Arts and Commerce, Badlapur, MMR, India Volume 8, Issue 2 September 2019 Introduction The date, 14th August 1947, doesn't mark the independence of India and Pakistan alone. There were 565 princely states formerly under the British control, became independent too. These princely states had two options; either to form an independent country of its own or to merge with India or Pakistan.

  • Naaree Interviews Nandita Das February 2013
    Naaree Interviews Nandita Das February 2013 An Interview with Actor And Director, Nandita Das By Swarnendu Biswas © Naaree.com www.naaree.com Page 1 Naaree Interviews Nandita Das February 2013 Her razor-sharp intellect and uncommon sensitivity towards social issues complement her enchanting beauty and compelling aesthetic talent. But while talking to Nandita Das it was very difficult to comprehend the gravity of the fact that I was conversing with a world-renowned actress and director, for she lets the weight of her astonishing achievements and enviable fame sit lightly on her slim, elegant and strong shoulders. Her unassuming and easy going personality belies the fact that she is one of the most critically acclaimed actresses of serious Indian cinema of our times, and also the fact that her maiden directorial effort has made the world of cinema to sit up and recognise the arrival of a new cinematic genius from India; a country whose film repertoire is even now by and large perceived by overtly melodramatic and utterly mediocre mainstream Bollywood fare. Casually Famous Even the immense significance of the fact that the French Government had conferred her with the Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters (Chevalier dans l'Ordre des Arts et des Lettres), one of the most prestigious civilian awards in the world, in 2008, for her contribution to art and culture, hasn’t infused any hint of arrogance into her friendly personality. In this context, it also deserves a mention here that, in 2011, Nandita became the first Indian to be inducted into the Hall of Fame of the International Women’s Forum.

    The Lunchbox (2013) an NFDC Film Hindi - 104 min - Drama | Romance "Dabba" (original title) Director: Ritesh Batra The Dabbawalas (lunchbox service) of Mumbai deliver 170’000 lunchboxes every day and according to a Harvard study, only one in a million ever goes astray. This movie is the story of that one mistaken delivery which connects a young housewife Ila to a lonely widower Saajan in the dusk of his life as they build a fantasy world together through notes in the lunchbox…. Both find a dream to hold on to. Ila begins a fantastical affair with a mystery suitor, pouring her heart into cooking meals for him. Saajan looks forward to lunch box deliveries from a mystery woman every day. As the lunchbox goes back and forth, this fantasy becomes so elaborate that it threatens to overwhelm their reality. The film is the story of the life of which we dream versus the life we live in, and of the courage it takes to turn out fantasies into reality. The film was released in February 2014 in the US and the New York Times described it as “A perfect balance of tact and sentimentality”. Cast: Irrfan Khan, Nimrat Kaur, Nawazuddin Siddiqui Krrish 3 (2013) Hindi - 152 min - Action | Sci-Fi Director: Rakesh Roshan Krishna aka Krrish is living a happy married life in India with his wife Priya and scientist dad Rohit, while helping the masses with his superpowers and struggling to keep a steady job.

  • Ek Doctor Ki Maut Torrent Download India Post News Paper
    ek doctor ki maut torrent download India Post News Paper. Sahabzade Irfan Ali Khan seriously nurtured desire to be a cricketing hero. In smalltown India, where cricket and cinema are the twin intoxications that normally drive notions of heroism, the young boy of a tyre seller in Jaipur couldn’t realise the dream, so he shifted focus to acting, his other passion that he had been honing doing street theatre. It is ironic, actually, that his entry into the field he would never make it big seems far easier, compared to his entry into the field that would eventually give him fame and fortune. For, the young Irfan from Khajuriya village near Tonk district of Rajasthan was in no time in contention to play in the CK Nayudu Tournament — a stepping stone for under-23 cricket in India. Irrfan could never make it, some say owing to lack of funds. His entry into the world of films, on the other hand, was far less of a fairytale story. He faced the camera for the first time in Pravin Nischol’s Doordarshan TV series “Shrikant”, based on Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyaya’s novel “Srikanta” and starring Farooq Shaikh and Sujata Mehta in the lead roles. The show ran between 1985 and 1986, and made very little impact. Irrfan’s big screen break happened when Mira Nair came looking for fresh and interesting faces in National School of Drama (NSD), to cast in her 1988 film “Salaam Bombay!”. She picked Irrfan, a student at the drama school back then, for a small role.

Newton, a rookie clerk on election duty in the conflict ridden jungle of Chhattisgarh, tries his best to conduct free and fair voting despite the apathy of security forces and the looming fear of an attack by Maoist rebels. Maoist Conflict Map ] SYNOPSIS As India, the world’s largest democracy, braces itself for another general election- with 9 million polling booths, more than 800 million voters, and costing nearly $5 billion -- Newton Kumar, a rookie government clerk finds himself entrusted with a task that appears deceptively simple: conducting elections in a remote village in the jungles of central India. The bushes teem with Communist guerrillas, who have been waging a decades old war against the state, even as the indigenous tribals live without any access to mainland amenities. Conducting ‘free and fair’ elections in a minefield like this is no child’s play, as Newton learns over the course of this eventful day. Unfazed with the cynicism and danger all around him, Newton is determined to do his duty. But, as they say in the jungle, ‘The more things change, Source: Institute for Conflict Management, South Asia Terrorism Portal the worse they will get’. PRINCIPAL CAST ] RAJKUMMAR PANKAJ ANJALI RAGHUBIR RAO TRIPATHI PATIL YADAV Rajkummar Rao plays Newton, Pankaj Tripathi plays Atma Anjali Patil plays Malko, a local Raghubir Yadav plays Loknath, a young rookie clerk on Singh, the head of security Gondi clerk also working on the an easygoing clerk in Newton’s election duty in the jungles at the polling booth, often election with Newton.
