List of the Films Related to Panchayats/ Villages 1 LIST OF THE FILMS RELATED TO PANCHAYATS/ VILLAGES 1. Ramgarh- Sholay To enjoy some calm rustic charm(completely devoid of dacoits, of course) one of the best places to head towards is Ramnagara. Situated in Karnataka, the beautiful village lies just around 50 kms from the throbbing city of Bangalore. The village is a much- loved weekend destination for the inhabitants of India’s IT city. With unsullied vistas of natural beauty-imagine giant boulders rising up like mythical beings from the ground at the shadow of which graze sheep, the trees swaying in the gentle breeze and you begin to get an idea, this one’s for the soul as much as it’s for the eyes. 2. Charanpur- Swades In the movie, SRK is in search of his roots-coming from the US, and it is to a quintessential Indian village-complete with old fashioned gymkhana and villagers who could tell the time(and the nature of weather in the immediate future) just by looking at the sky. The real-world village in question falls enroute to Mahabaleshwar in Maharashtra. And with all the centuries old trees in the village that has its fair share of hills and old temples, it certainly looked like a place where one can dig out some roots. 3. Champaner- Lagaan For a film to be both critically acclaimed and loved by the masses is a feat in itself. And when the film revolves around the story about a few villagers in the British Raj trying to evict the foreigners from their hamlet with the aid of a cricket match, it becomes even more impressive. After all, the storyline isn’t your average hero-heroine-villain routine. But ‘Lagaan’ went on to become one of the proudest successes for Bollywood . And the setting of the film-inspired by the Champaner village in Bihar, is the village of Kanura which lies just outside of Bhuj in Gujarat. The entire settlement of the villagers in the movie was erected in the village, only to be razed down after the shoot was over. Maybe if they had left it standing, it would have been another worthy attraction to visit the village. Not that Kanuria needs any artificial attractions to make it beautiful- the decisively earthy village that lies in the valley of hillocks is like a slice from a time when things were slow and probably saner. Any city-dweller would do good to take a break at such destinations, or shall we say locations? 4. Sonbai’s village- Mirch Masala One of the best Indian movies with a social message, Ketan Mehta’s ‘Mirch Masala’ was about the struggles of Indian women trying to get on in the subcontinent during the 1940s. The backdrop of the movie was an arid land which gave the impression of being hostile to the women’s dreams of prosperity. However, the Kathiawar Peninsula where the film was shot is one of the best places to experience the beauty of village-life in India. Earthbound and having a simple charm all its own, it’s the kind of place where one can re-discover the much sought-after but elusive roots of life in the nation of a billion. 5. Kolipad- Iqbal The district of Tenali in Andhra Pradesh is famous for its temples and attracts its fair share of tourists for that reason. Tenali was also the chosen location for the movie, ‘Iqbal’ in which Shreyas Talpade played the role of a deaf and mute youngster whose dream it is to become a professional cricketer. A land where wide open farmlands meet a tranquil culture of spirituality, Tenali is the perfect example of an idyllic village to which we all yearn to escape at times. 6. Idhar village- Guru Though parts of the movie had its fictional setting in Gujarat, the chosen location was near Pollachi in Tamil Nadu. The fact that Mani Ratnam, who directed the movie is from Tamil Nadu might have had something to do with the decision. Not that we are complaining- along with Aishwarya Rai the village with amazing water-bodies and tranquil hillocks as well as centuries-old temples was definitely something for the eyes. 7. Meera’s House- Dor ‘Dor’ is undoubtedly one of the best films made by Nagesh Kukunoor. In the film, Ayesha Takia played the role of a widow subjugated by the purdah system. The setting was Rajastan and the film was shot in Umaidnagar Garh in Jodhpur. The palace is the perfect example of the architectural finesse of old India. 8. Sundarapandianpuram- Roja ‘Roja’ wasn’t a Bollywood production. Nonetheless, the movie was loved by people across the nation. The South Indian village where the earlier parts of the movie take place is Corthallam which is not surprisingly, famous for its beautiful waterfalls. Since the movie came out, Courtallam or Kutralam, as it’s also known has been attracting tourists in ever-larger numbers. 9. Budbuda- Billu Pollachi in Tamil Nadu is one village the stunning beauty of which has attracted the camera’s gaze for more decades that you may imagine. The village has been portrayed in many a South Indian movie but it was also the setting for the Bollywood film, ‘Billu.’ Located around 40 km from Coimbatore, this is as good a sampler as any for the unutterable beauty of the Tamil landscape. 10. Mahmudabad – Dedh Ishqiya To get a glimpse of the style in which the rajas of the erstwhile Kingdom of Awadh lived, heading out to the Mamudabad palace in Barabanki, Uttar Pradesh is called for. This edifice of great beauty is situated in a sprawling feudal estate- where a part of the movie, ‘Dedh Ishqiya’ was shot. With the bulk of the film-going crowd, if not regarding the number of audience then in terms of revenue, living in urban centres of the country perhaps it’s not so strange that many films has at least parts of them set in beautiful villages. Movies-especially Bollywood movies, are dream machines designed to transport the audience to other places for about two hours. Once you escape fromthe bustle and get within the comforts of a theatre, what better place to lift your mind to than a village the sights and sounds bloom dreams, or memories of tranquil moments in your mind.

Ambani led Reliance Entertainment and Phantom Films’ “Super 30” directed by Vikas Bahl and starring Hrithik Roshan in the lead role will release on 23rd November 2018. Super 30 is a story of a mathematics genius from a modest family in Bihar, Anand Kumar, who was told that only a king’s son can become a king. But he went on to prove how one poor man could create some of the world’s most genius minds. Anand Kumar’s training program is so effective that students post cracking IIT have gone on to become some of the most successful professionals. Many students trained under the Super 30 program have joined some of the top global companies like Adobe, Samsung Research Institute, Amazon etc. Anand Kumar said, “I trust Vikas Bahl with my life story and I believe that he will make a heartfelt film. I am a rooted guy so I feel some level of emotional quotient is required to live my life on screen. I have seen that in Hrithik – on and off screen. I have full faith in his capabilities.” Vikas Bahl, truly inspired by Anand Kumar’s initiative, said, “Super 30 is a story of the struggles of those genius kids who have one opportunity and how those 30 amongst thousands of others redefine success. The film will focus on the Super 30 program that Kumar started, which trains 30 IIT aspirants to crack its entrance test.” Vikas Bahl is one of the most critically and commercially acclaimed directors of our country.

  • Bollywood As National(Ist) Cinema Violence, Patriotism and the National- Popular in Rang De Basanti
    Third Text, Vol. 23, Issue 6, November, 2009, 703–716 Bollywood as National(ist) Cinema Violence, Patriotism and the National- Popular in Rang De Basanti Neelam Srivastava This essay sets out to explore the relationship between violence, patrio- tism and the national-popular within the medium of film by examining the Indian film-maker Rakeysh Mehra’s recent Bollywood hit, Rang de Basanti (Paint It Saffron, 2006). The film can be seen to form part of a body of work that constructs and represents violence as integral to the emergence of a national identity, or rather, its recuperation. Rang de Basanti is significant in contemporary Indian film production for the enormous resonance it had among South Asian middle-class youth, both in India and in the diaspora. It rewrites, or rather restages, Indian nationalist history not in the customary pacifist Gandhian vein, but in the mode of martyrdom and armed struggle. It represents a more ‘masculine’ version of the nationalist narrative for its contemporary audiences, by retelling the story of the Punjabi revolutionary Bhagat Singh as an Indian hero and as an example for today’s generation. This essay argues that its recuperation of a violent anti-colonial history is, in fact, integral to the middle-class ethos of the film, presenting the viewers with a bourgeois nationalism of immediate and timely appeal, coupled with an accessible (and politically acceptable) social activism. As the 1.

These films actualize region as a cinematic imaginary through its authenticity markers – caste/ist practices explicitly, which earlier films constructed as a ‘trope’. The paper uses the concept of Heterotopias to analyse the recurrence of spectacle spaces in the construction of Madurai, and the production of caste in contemporary films. In this pursuit, it interrogates the implications of such spatial discourses. Spectacle spaces: Production of caste in recent Tamil films To foreground the study of caste in Tamil films and to link it with the rise of ‘caste- gestapo’ networks that execute honour killings and murders as a reaction to ‘inter-caste love dramas’ in Tamil Nadu,1 let me narrate a political incident that occurred in Tamil Nadu – that of the formation of a socio-political movement against Dalit assertion in December 2012.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

    Comical and illogical...Page 4 SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 27, 2016 INTERNET EDITION : www.dailyexcelsior.com/magazine Why disrespect....Page 3 TALWARA goes organic Dr. Banarsi Lal Jammu and Kashmir is a mountainous state in which Jammu region is predominantly sub-tropical while Kashmir and Ladakh regions are temperate. The total geographical area of Jammu & Kashmir state is 2, 22, 236 sq. km and its population is 1, 25, 48,926 as per 2011 Census. Agriculture is the mainstay of Jammu and Kashmir state. This sector provides employment to about 70 per cent of the state population. Agriculture contributes about 65 per cent of the state revenue which signi- fies the overdependence of the state on agriculture. The average size of land holding of the state is only 0.67 hectare against 1.33 hectares' land holding size on national basis. Organic farming is picking up pace in the state and there is need of awareness and trainings of farmers for organic farming. J&K has huge potential for organic farming as the large area in the state is already under semi- organic cultivation in hilly districts of the state due to the lack of availability of chemical fertilizers in these areas and the farmers of these areas avoid to apply the chemical fertilizers. Basmati rice of R. S. Pura, rajmash of Bhaderwah, pota- to of Gurez and Machil and red rice of Tangdar, Kupwara, ginger and turmer- ic of Pouni, Reasi are major exportable organic products in the state and have the potential to fetch more returns in the market. Organic farming means holis- tic production systems which refer earth friendly methods for cultivation and food processing.

Sivasubramaniam3 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Music plagiarism is defined as using tune, or melody that would closely imitate with another author’s music without proper attributions. It may occur either by stealing a musical idea (a melody or motif) or sampling (a portion of one sound, or tune is copied into a different song). Unlike the traditional music, the Indian cinematic music is extremely popular amongst the public. Since the expectations of the public for songs that are enjoyable are high, many music directors are seeking elsewhere to “borrow” tunes. Whilst a vast majority of Indian cinemagoers may not have noticed these plagiarised tunes, some journalists and vigilant music lovers have noticed these activities. This study has taken the initiative to investigate the extent of plagiaristic activities within one Indian cinematic music industry.
