Dossier-De-Presse-L-Ombrelle-Bleue
Splendor Films présente Synopsis Dans un petit village situé dans les montagnes de l’Himalaya, une jeune fille, Biniya, accepte d’échanger son porte bonheur contre une magnifique ombrelle bleue d’une touriste japonaise. Ne quittant plus l’ombrelle, l’objet L’Ombrelle semble lui porter bonheur, et attire les convoitises des villageois, en particulier celles de Nandu, le restaurateur du village, pingre et coléreux. Il veut à tout prix la récupérer, mais un jour, l’ombrelle disparaît, et Biniya bleue mène son enquête... Note de production un film de Vishal Bhardwaj L’Ombrelle bleue est une adaptation cinématographique très fidèle à la nouvelle éponyme de Ruskin Bond. Le film a été tourné dans la région de l’Himachal Pradesh, située au nord de l’Inde, à la frontière de la Chine et Inde – 2005 – 94 min – VOSTFR du Pakistan, dans une région montagneuse. La chaîne de l’Himalaya est d’ailleurs le décor principal du film, le village est situé à flanc de montagne. Inédit en France L’Ombrelle bleue reprend certains codes et conventions des films de Bollywood. C’est pourtant un film original dans le traitement de l’histoire. Alors que la plupart des films de Bollywood durent près de trois heures et traitent pour la plupart d’histoires sentimentales compliquées par la religion et les obligations familiales, L’Ombrelle bleue s’intéresse davantage aux caractères de ses personnages et à la nature environnante. AU CINÉMA Le film, sorti en août 2007 en Inde, s’adresse aux enfants, et a pour LE 16 DÉCEMBRE vedettes Pankaj Kapur et Shreya Sharma. -

Bravely Fought the Queen
INTRODUCTION “My life is big. I am BIG and GENEROUS! Only the theatre deserves me” (Where Did I Leave My Purdah? 59) Theatre has always been a glorious star in the multi-dimensional and richly adorned cultural galaxy of India. But Indian English theatre has had a rather low key representation in this vibrant cultural arena. During the sixties and seventies European influence, especially of Pirandello, Brecht, Chekhov and others, gained prominence and helped Indian theatre express the fractured reality of the time. But the indigenous Indian theatre moved past regional boundaries to become really a polyglot phenomenon from the sixties onward, and use of English helped it cross the border of language, too. Nissim Ezekiel, Girish Karnad, Badal Sircar and Vijay Tendulkar were the chief architects of this aesthetic/cultural development. But except for a few plays written in English between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and for the translations in English of the works of the above playwrights, the picture of Indian drama in English, however, appeared rather uninspiring. It was not until the eighties that English drama stepped out of the coterie of elitists and reached a wider audience. The efforts of playwrights like Nissim Ezekiel, Asif Currimbhoy, Shib K Kumar and others achieved occasional success, but failed to connect the audience with theatre’s full potential. With a younger group of 1 playwrights a more lasting change was visible, and the plays by Dina Mehta, Poli Sengupta, Manjula Padmanavan, and Tripurari Sharma found increasingly appreciative audience. It was with the appearance of Mahesh Dattani in the 1980s that Indian English drama gained a distinct identity. -
Kathak Through the Ages, the Last Choreography of Guru Maya Rao in 2014, Video Projection in the Background Adds to the Dynamism of the Choreography
PAPER 4 Detail Study Of Kathak, Nautch Girls, Nritta, Nritya, Different Gharana-s, Present Status, Institutions, Artists Module 20 Modern Development And Future Trends In Kathak Kathak though an ancient dance form, with clear established history, has grown to a massive body of work, making it veer towards what is contemporary and modern. The words contemporary and modern are two different terms in context of art. Any art form, design, film, fashion, music can be contemporary. Each generation or time cycle brings something to the table of this development in society but modern means a whole new language. It means new structure, new grammar and new form. So, in dance when we speak of a modern Kathak, what does it imply? Kathak has certain grammar and structure, as with any and most dance forms. Thus, when we say modern Kathak, it doesn’t mean we break the grammar or change costume - that is just innovation or making it more in tune with contemporary desires of a society at any given point of time. 1 Many believe that Kumudhini Lakhia’s solo performance entitled Duvidha was a turning point of Kathak as a dance form. She founded the Kadamb School of Dance and Music in Ahmedabad in 1967 and has done more than 70 successful productions all over the world. Her choreographies include Dhabkar / धबकार, Yugal / युगऱ, Atah Kim / अथ: ककम, The Peg, Okha-Haran / ओखा हरण, Sama Samvadan / सम संवाद, Suverna / सुवण,ण Bhav Krida / भाव क्रीड़ा, Golden Chains, Kolaahal / कोऱाहऱ, Mushti / मुष्टि to name a few. -
Folklore, Orality and Tradition
Chapter-1 Introduction: Folklore, Orality and Tradition The study of folklore is inclusive of many different disciplines that overlap and intermingle with each other. Disciplines like anthropology, psychology, sociology, literary studies and women’s studies, linguistics, all come together to study the folklore in wider terms. It becomes essential to understand and analyse folk literature in the light of above disciplines to get a better understanding of the culture and history behind the given oral literature. Folklore surpasses boundaries of time in a way that it brings the culture and civilization of the past and merges it with the future for a better understanding. It continuously flows with the civilization by adopting different forms on the course of its journey. That way, it never gets struck in one time. It is not a static thing to be stored and preserved in any one form which struts itself as the ‘original. It is continuously and spontaneously being produced by the people who are blissfully ignorant of its various facets and its profound effect on the modern civilization. It is no more a thing of the rural or semi-urban masses but it is very much a part of the modern world. Many attempts have been made to define, categorize and theorize the term ‘folklore’ through words that can give it a concrete meaning. Folklore does not only include what is passed orally from one generation to another rather it encompasses everything including the cultural norms, behavioral codes, individual identities, feelings and emotions, religious beliefs, and experiences of not only a particular race or nationality but also of each individual living through it. -
Re-Appropriated Voices in the Poetry of Kathak Dance Repertoire
The Polish Journal of the Arts and Culture. New Series 4 (2/2016): 47–78 [article] DOI: 10.4467/24506249PJ.16.010.6241 A heroine in the pangs of separation or a soul longing for the divine? Re-appropriated voices in the poetry of kathak dance repertoire Katarzyna Skiba Abstract The paper explores the ambivalent nature of poems that are partand parcel of the kathak dance repertoire in the context of a changing sys- tem of dance patronage during the 19th and 20th centuries in North India. Through a textual analysis of selected ṭhumrī songs, the author investigates the use of śṛṅgāra rasa (erotic sentiment) in this poetic genre in relation to its original, secular function and its interpretation in religious idioms. The comparison of traditional ṭhumrīs with the compositions prevalent on the modern, classical dance stage shall un- derline a shift in the character of kathak performance (from romantic, sensual and intimate to devotional and impersonal). The attempts to locate ṭhumrī in the shastric framework and to ‘purify’ the content of these poems from the imprints of its lineage with tawā’if s culture is examined as part of the process of reinventing kathak in response to the tastes of a new class of patrons and performers and matching this art to the vision of Indian cultural heritage, propagated by nationalists. Keywords: kathak, ṭhumrī, Indian dance revival, nāyikā-bheda, dance Katarzyna Skiba is a Ph.D student at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. Her main area of research includes: South Asian perform- ing arts, dance anthropology, sociology and postcolonial studies. -
Cultural Geography of Kathak Dance: Streams of Tradition and Global Flows*
Cracow Indological Studies vol. XVIII (2016) 10.12797/CIS.18.2016.18.04 Katarzyna Skiba [email protected] (Jagiellonian University, Kraków) Cultural Geography of Kathak Dance: Streams of Tradition and Global Flows* SUMMARY: The article deals with the modern history of Kathak, explored from regional perspectives. It focuses on the Lucknow gharānā (“school”) of Kathak, which sprung up mainly in courts and salons of colonial Avadh as a product of Indo- Islamic culture. The paper investigates how the shift of hereditary artists from Lucknow to Delhi affected their tradition in newly founded, state-supported institutions. It also examines various trends of further modernization of Kathak in globalized, metropolitan spaces. The tendency of Sanskritization in national dance institutes (Kathak Kendra) is juxtaposed with the preservation of ‘traditional’ form in dance schools of Lucknow (nowadays becoming more provincial locations of Kathak tradition) and innovative / experimental tendencies. The impact of regional culture, economic conditions and cosmopolitanism are regarded as important factors reshaping Kathak art, practice and systems of knowledge transmission. The paper is based on ethnographic fieldwork, combined with historical research, conducted in the period 2014–2015. KEYWORDS: classical Indian dance, Kathak, Lucknow gharānā, Indo-Islamic culture. * Much of the data referred to in this paper comes from the interviews with Kathak artists and dance historians which I conducted in India in 2014–2015 as part of two research projects: The Role of Sanskrit Literature in Shaping the Classical Dance Traditions in India (funded by École française d’Extrême-Orient), and Transformation of the Classical Indian Dance Kathak in the Context of Socio-cultural Changes (funded by National Science Center in Poland/NCN on the basis of decision no. -

By redeploying the historical erotic dancing in a globalising India, the dance bars emerged as the new market providing Bollywood-type entertainment with dance, music, and hospitality to the new consumer class. The Dance Bar market offered employment opportunities to poor women to earn a livelihood and proved to be an exceptional market where female labour was paid very well. By deploying their caste capital, i.e., the hereditary skills of dancing, drama and use of sexuality, the traditional dancing women occupied and ruled the dance bar market. To this extent, the bargirls may be viewed as a ‘performing caste’ continuing their hereditary caste occupations in a globalising capitalist market. However, while their relationship to the customer was defined through the market and they earned money, status and power through their occupation, the bargirls challenged, transformed and redefined the caste hierarchy by the use of ‘caste capital’. -
Kathak's Marginalized Courtesan Tradition the I
Varma 1 Tulika Varma English 184 Prof. Mott 3/22/18 Sensuality and Syncretism: Kathak’s Marginalized Courtesan Tradition The Indian classical dance form known today as Kathak is practiced widely across the subcontinent and the South Asian diaspora. A vibrant, entertaining dance, it has taken many shapes and forms across different stages and spaces. This paper is primarily interested in historicizing the form and exploring how the process was closely managed by Indian nationalism and British Anglicism. I draw on Margaret Walker’s historicization of Kathak in her book India’s Kathak Dance in Historical Perspective and Pallabi Chakravorty’s invaluable Marxist anthropological study of Kathak in Bells of Change: Kathak Dance, Women and Modernity in India to investigate the different genealogies of the form and which histories were preserved during the nationalist reconstruction of “Indian culture” in the 19th century. I explore Kathak’s rich syncretic, philosophical history – specifically the tawaif (courtesan) tradition and its subsequent marginalization, and show how despite concerted efforts to purge this tradition from the “official” history of Kathak, it lingers in the choreographic vocabulary of contemporary practitioners. I then outline the different relationships that these practitioners have with the tawaif tradition, and map how theories and experiences of sensuality and embodiment have shifted through the rise of Indian nationalism as well as contemporary efforts to “reclaim” or excavate the tawaif tradition. However, before elaborating more on this project, it is important to give a brief outline of Kathak as it is known and performed today – the cadences of the movements and gestures and Varma 2 the general repertoire. -
From Mujras to Item Songs: Tracing the Journey of Courtesan Songs in Popular Hindi Movies and Inclusion in Popular Culture
Volume III, Issue V, July 2015 – ISSN 2321-7065 From Mujras to Item Songs: Tracing the Journey of Courtesan Songs in Popular Hindi movies and inclusion in Popular Culture. Cheena Chawla Assistant Professor( Department of English) Patel Memorial National College Rajpura, Punjab. Abstract: The present paper attempts to analyze the incorporation of courtesan songs as mujras in Popular Hindi movies and their inclusion in Popular culture. These mujras held a prominent position in Bollywood and contributed a great deal to the success of the movies they were a part of. Due to globalization and changing trends and consumer demands, the mujras in Indian cinema slowly and gradually transformed and paved way for the bolder and more provocative item numbers and the courtesan stood reincarnated as the item girl. Research Paper: Courtesan songs originated in temples through devadasis and gradually reached Kothas and concert halls. With the degeneration of courtesan tradition, their private performances and private salons dwindled considerably. But their art was not completely lost. With the proliferation of Bollywood, their music started incorporating itself into popular Hindi movies, though in a somewhat changed manner, which catered to the interest of the masses i.e. it became part of the popular culture. Popular culture has been the subject of a heated critical debate. The proponents of elitist culture, critics such as Max Horkheimer and T. W. Adorno, Dwight Macdonald are of the view that "Masscult ... doesn't even have the possibility of being good," because it "offers its customers neither an emotional catharsis nor an aesthetic experience" (Macdonald 4). Whereas the proponents of popular culture, critics such as Richard Slotkin, Refereed (Peer Reviewed) Journal www.ijellh.com 416 Volume III, Issue V, July 2015 – ISSN 2321-7065 Leslie Fiedler argue that culture does not merely include elite and high works of art, instead „culture is ordinary‟(Williams 92) as Raymond Williams points out.
