The company is also scheduled to launch the mythological, Mahabharatha, on 9X. Also in the pipeline are two Reality shows, one on 9X called Kaun Jeetega Bollywood Ka Ticket and the other one on Sony. Overall, with these programmes getting launched, the company would be diversifying its revenue stream to some extent and reduce its dependence on Star. Also, a slew of General Entertainment Channels (GECs) are expected to be launched soon, which would open up further opportunities for Balaji Telefilms to provide prime time content. Further, the company’s joint venture (JV) with Star, though considerably delayed, could potentially see the birth of 3-4 channels over the next few quarters in various South Indian languages, which would augur well for Balaji’s content supply business. However, we have not assumed any contribution from this JV in our projections. The company has also ventured into movie production, co-production and distribution to broad base its revenue stream and further diversify its risks. Notably, Balaji Motion Pictures, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Balaji Telefilms, released three movies during the year, of which two (Shootout at Lokhandwala and Bhool Bhulaiya) had a decent run. For FY2009, the company has four new film projects in the offing including the much-awaited Sarkar Raj. While this film will be distributed by Balaji Motion Pictures, the other films (EMI, C Kkompany and Mission Istanbul) are being co-produced by it. For FY2008, the Motion Pictures Division reported a Topline of Rs36.5cr and Net Profit of Rs5.5cr. We have not factored in any profit/losses that may arise from this business segment. On the realisations front, Balaji Telefilms witnessed pressure on commissioned realisations during the quarter. However, while we do not expect the company to command premium realisations in the wake of stabilised TRPs of its programmes, we believe it would have a marginal upper hand when its contract with Star comes up for re-negotiation in June 2008. This is because Star Plus continues to derive a substantial chunk of its TRPs from Balaji serials. Also, with new GECs likely to get launched, Balaji Telefilms seems to be in a comfortable position. Valuation At current levels of Rs181, the stock is trading at 9.8x FY2010E EPS. The fact that Balaji Telefilms continues to be amongst the most preferred content providers for a GEC and considering that it continues to churn out successful TRP generating programmes, we remain confident of its growth prospects going forward. Nonetheless, the biggest risk to our assumptions is any of the company’s key programmes going off-air without an equally strong substitution. We maintain a Buy on the stock, with a marginally reduced Target Price of Rs275 (Rs285) factoring in a 3% reduction in our FY2010E EPS.

  • 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.

  • Representation of Sikh Character in Bollywood Movies:A Study on Selective Bollywood Movies
    PJAEE, 17(6) (2020) REPRESENTATION OF SIKH CHARACTER IN BOLLYWOOD MOVIES:A STUDY ON SELECTIVE BOLLYWOOD MOVIES Navpreet Kaur Assistant Professor University Institute of Media Studies, Chandigarh University, Punjab, India [email protected] Navpreet Kaur, Representation Of Sikh Character In Bollywood Movies: A Study On Selective Bollywood Movies– Palarch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 17(6) (2020), ISSN 1567-214X. Keywords: Bollywood, Sikh, Sikh Character, War, Drama, Crime, Biopic, Action, Diljit Dosanhj, Punjab Abstract Sikhs have been ordinarily spoken to in mainstream Hindi film either as courageous warriors or as classless rustics. In the patriot message in which the envisioned was an urban North Indian, Hindu male, Sikh characters were uprooted and made to give entertainment. Bollywood stars have donned the turban to turn Sikh cool, Sikhs view the representation of the community in Bollywood as demeaning and have attempted to revive the Punjabi film industry as an attempt at authentic self-representation. But with the passage of time the Bollywood makers experimented with the role and images of Sikh character. Sunny Deol's starrer movie Border and Gadar led a foundation of Sikh identity and real image of Sikh community and open the doors for others. This paper examines representation of Sikhs in new Bollywood films to inquire if the romanticization of Sikhs as representing rustic authenticity is a clever marketing tactic used by the Bollywood. Introduction Bollywood is the sobriquet for India's Hindi language film industry, situated in the city of Mumbai, Maharashtra. It is all the more officially alluded to as Hindi film. The expression "Bollywood" is frequently utilized by non-Indians as a synecdoche to allude to the entire of Indian film; be that as it may, Bollywood legitimate is just a piece of the bigger Indian film industry, which incorporates other creation communities delivering films in numerous other Indian dialects.

  • DEFINATION the Capacity and Willingness to Develop, Organize
    DEFINATION The capacity and willingness to develop, organize and manage a business venture along with any of its risks in order to make a profit. The most obvious example of entrepreneurship is the starting of new businesses. In economics, entrepreneurship combined with land, labor, natural resources and capital can produce profit. Entrepreneurial spirit is characterized by innovation and risk-taking, and is an essential part of a nation's ability to succeed in an ever changing and increasingly competitive global marketplace. Differences Between Women and Men Entrepreneurs When men and women start companies, do they approach the process the same way? Are there key differences? And how do those differences affect the success of the business venture? As a woman in the start-up community, I am frequently asked about women entrepreneurs. A popular question is: How are they different from men? There have been many studies of entrepreneurs and start-ups, and I’ve read a number of them. Many of them seem to me to fall short, because the researchers, not being entrepreneurs themselves, lack an in-depth understanding of the entrepreneurial mind. The result is often a lot of statistics that fail to enlighten readers about entrepreneurial behavior and motivation. So what follows are my personal opinions. They are not based on formal research, but on my own observations and interactions with other women entrepreneurs. 1. Women tend to be natural multitaskers, which can be a great advantage in start-ups. While founders typically have one core skill, they also need to be involved in many different aspects of their business.
