  • Gendered Representations in Contemporary Popular Hindi Cinema: Femininity and Female Sexuality in Films by Pooja Bhatt and Karan Johar
    GENDERED REPRESENTATIONS IN CONTEMPORARY POPULAR HINDI CINEMA: FEMININITY AND FEMALE SEXUALITY IN FILMS BY POOJA BHATT AND KARAN JOHAR NISHA RAMLUTCHMAN Dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Arts (Gender Studies) in the Faculty of Humanities, Development and Social Sciences University of KwaZulu-Natal (Howard College Campus) Supervisor: Professor Vasu Reddy June 2006 DECLARATION I hereby declare that this dissertation, unless otherwise indicated in the text, is my own original work. This research has also not been submitted to any other institution for degree purposes. Name: Nisha Ramlutchman Student Number: 991238913 Date: 2~ Signature: ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on a textual analysis of the representation of femininity and female sexuality in popular Hindi cinema. Popular Hindi cinema has been a major point of reference for Indian culture in the last century, and will undoubtedly persist in the 21 st century. To an extent, Hindi cinema has shaped and reflected the burgeoning transformation of a 'traditional India' to a 'modern India'. (I use the term modern to reflect the impact the west has had on Indian society, and how this impact in turn is reflected on screen). Issues surrounding gender and sexuality tend to be avoided, if not subverted in Hindi cinema. More specifically, issues surrounding femininity and female sexuality in Hindi cinema is either not recognised or 'mis-recognised' on screen. Feminist studies, in relation to film, have taken up these issues, to a large extent in the west (cf. Hollows, 2000; Kaplan, 2000; Macdonald, 1995). Chatterji (1998) maintains that the interest of feminists in film began as a general concern for the under­ representation and mis-representation of women in cinema.

  • Media 07Jun21 SU
    India Equity Research Media June 18, 2021 Mediascope SECTOR UPDATE After the break: Blockbuster show The multiplex industry bore significant and direct brunt of the pandemic. Fear of the virus compelled state regulations as well as consumers to turn unfavourable for the industry. Although the second covid wave has derailed recovery, we expect strong recovery to commence soon with starting of unlock, pick up in vaccination drives and opening up of international markets. In this report: a) we look at global markets to evaluate how fast footfalls resumed post unlock; and b) how regional films fared during Unlock 1 in India, to get a better sense of how the industry recovery will look like in FY22-23. Eastern markets: Good response despite stringent caps The Japanese and South Korean markets can be a good comparison to India’s industry as they have a strong local language film industry co-existing with demand for Hollywood movies. Both these markets saw many films that pulled in heavy crowds at theatres despite operating under occupancy caps and strict rules. These movies did not entail much discounting in ticket prices, which is a strong positive sign. Apart from local language films, Hollywood blockbusters like F9 have also garnered strong support. The quick bounce-back of these markets is another strong positive sign. Western markets: Strong bounce-back Western markets are important to look at because most big budget Bollywood films earn a significant part of revenue from them. US and European markets have clocked strong recovery after theatres reopened this summer. In Europe, while in France a bunch of local language films drove up collections post reopening, Hollywood blockbusters evinced strong response in UK.

WILKINSON-WEBER Washington State University, Vancouver, USA Abstract As scholarly interest in consumption has risen, little attention has been paid to productive consumption, or the acquisition and use of commodities within production processes. Since the shift toward neo-liberal economic policies in India in the early 1990s, commoditized, branded clothing has multiplied in the marketplace, and is increasingly featured in films. Selecting and inserting these clothes into film costume production draws on some of the same discriminations that producers employ in their guise as consumers. Dress designers’ fluency with brands and fashion solidifies their professional standing but costume production is a field of social practice that includes many actors who do not share the same dispositions toward consumption as designers.
