    Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber TAILORING EXPECTATIONS How film costumes become the audience’s clothes ‘Bollywood’ film costume has inspired clothing trends for many years. Female consumers have managed their relation to film costume through negotiations with their tailor as to how film outfits can be modified. These efforts have coincided with, and reinforced, a semiotic of female film costume where eroticized Indian clothing, and most forms of western clothing set the vamp apart from the heroine. Since the late 1980s, consumer capitalism in India has flourished, as have films that combine the display of material excess with conservative moral values. New film costume designers, well connected to the fashion industry, dress heroines in lavish Indian outfits and western clothes; what had previously symbolized the excessive and immoral expression of modernity has become an acceptable marker of global cosmopolitanism. Material scarcity made earlier excessive costume display difficult to achieve. The altered meaning of women’s costume in film corresponds with the availability of ready-to-wear clothing, and the desire and ability of costume designers to intervene in fashion retailing. Most recently, as the volume and diversity of commoditised clothing increases, designers find that sartorial choices ‘‘on the street’’ can inspire them, as they in turn continue to shape consumer choice. Introduction Film’s ability to stimulate consumption (responding to, and further stimulating certain kinds of commodity production) has been amply explored in the case of Hollywood (Eckert, 1990; Stacey, 1994). That the pleasures associated with film going have influenced consumption in India is also true; the impact of film on various fashion trends is recognized by scholars (Dwyer and Patel, 2002, pp.

Email marketing, search engine marketing (SEM), Social media marketing, a variety of display ads (including online banner ads), and smartphone advertising are all part of it. Internet advertising, like other types of advertising, often includes both a publisher and an advertiser. The publisher incorporates ads into its online material, and the advertiser produces the advertisements to be shown on the publisher's content. Advertising agencies who help to create and position ad copy, an ad server that produces the ad and records statistics, and advertising associates that do in-dependent promotional work for the advertising company all are possible participants. And in this study the Perception of the customer is to analyse that how they satisfied about the work of the company that they designed the digital marketing product for an organization or customer for digital advertising purpose and for promotion purpose to market their product or brand to advertise on the market to attract customers.

  • Gender, Biasness and Indian Cinemas
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 09, 2020 Gender, Biasness and Indian Cinemas Sanchayita Khakholary Research Scholar, Gauhati University, Assam, India Indian cinema, a billion dollar entertainment institution, today earns the position of the largest film producing industry with worldwide audience. It produces about thousands of films each year and in comparison to other institutions, Indian cinemas have millions and millions of viewers, reaching to almost every part of the society. Since its very inception it have been playing the role of the most prominent source of entertainment to the people of India. Along with dramas, lots of dancing and singing, powerful contents it have successfully attracted massive interests. One can trace back the history of Indian cinemas to the year of 1896 when the first 6 silent films shot by Lumiere Brothers were shown at one of the hotels at Bombay( now Mumbai). Thus, marking the entry of cinematography in India (Hafeez, p. 62). In 1898, Hiralal seth had directed the Flower of Persia, a pioneer of short films. But it was not until 1913, that the first full length silent film was released. ‘Raja Harishchandra’, the movie directed, shot and produced by Dadasaheb phalke sets the base for the pre-Bollywood scenario in India. However, the term Bollywood is a misnomer to define ‘the whole of Indian cinemas’, since it stands for only the Hindi cinemas and in reality Indian cinemas represents films or movies of all genres and of all languages of India. After 1913, featured films gained acceleration in its production and by 1920s; Indian film industry started producing 27 featured films annually (Hafeez, p.

    Kervan – International Journal of Afro-Asiatic Studies n. 21 (2017) Item Girls and Objects of Dreams: Why Indian Censors Agree to Bold Scenes in Bollywood Films Tatiana Szurlej The article presents the social background, which helped Bollywood film industry to develop the so-called “item numbers”, replace them by “dream sequences”, and come back to the “item number” formula again. The songs performed by the film vamp or the character, who takes no part in the story, the musical interludes, which replaced the first way to show on the screen all elements which are theoretically banned, and the guest appearances of film stars on the screen are a very clever ways to fight all the prohibitions imposed by Indian censors. Censors found that film censorship was necessary, because the film as a medium is much more popular than literature or theater, and therefore has an impact on all people. Indeed, the viewers perceive the screen story as the world around them, so it becomes easy for them to accept the screen reality and move it to everyday life. That’s why the movie, despite the fact that even the very process of its creation is much more conventional than, for example, the theater performance, seems to be much more “real” to the audience than any story shown on the stage. Therefore, despite the fact that one of the most dangerous elements on which Indian censorship seems to be extremely sensitive is eroticism, this is also the most desired part of cinema. Moreover, filmmakers, who are tightly constrained, need at the same time to provide pleasure to the audience to get the invested money back, so they invented various tricks by which they manage to bypass censorship.
