Sponsors Media Partner 2 The Idea Remembering legendary beginnings provides us the occasion to redefine and make contemporary the history we set out to honour. We need to complicate the idea of origins and `firsts’ because they highlight some dimensions of film culture and usage over others, and obscure the wider network of media technologies, cultural practices, and audiences which made cinema possible. In India, it is a matter of debate whether D.G. Phalke's Raja Harishchandra (1913), popularly referred to as the first Indian feature film, deserves that accolade. As Rosie Thomas has shown, earlier instances of the story film can be identified, includingAlibaba (Hiralal Sen, 1903), an Arabian Nights fantasy which would point to the presence of a different cultural universe from that provided by Phalke's Hindu mythological film. Such a revisionary history is critical to our research agenda.

  • Portrayal of Women in the Popular Indian Cinema Wizerunek Kobiet W
    Portrayal of Women in the Popular Indian Cinema Wizerunek kobiet w popularnym kinie indyjskim Sharaf Rehman THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS – RIO GRANDE VALLEY, USA Keywords Indian cinema, women, stereotyping Słowa klucze kino indyjskie, kobiety, stereotypy Abstract Popular Indian cinema is primarily rooted in formulaic narrative structure relying heavily on stereotypes. However, in addition to having been the only true “mass medium” in India, the movies have provided more than escapist fantasy and entertainment fare. Indian popular cinema has actively engaged in social and political criticism, promoted certain political ideologies, and reinforced In- dian cultural and social values. This paper offers a brief introduction to the social role of the Indian cinema in its culture and proceeds to analyze the phenomenon of stereotyping of women in six particular roles. These roles being: the mother, the wife, the daughter, the daughter-in-law, the widow, and “the other woman”. From the 1940s when India was fighting for her independence, to the present decade where she is emerging as a major future economy, Indian cinema has Artykuły i rozprawy shifted in its representation and stereotyping of women. This paper traces these shifts through a textual analysis of seven of the most popular Indian movies of the past seven decades. Abstrakt Popularne kino indyjskie jest przede wszystkim wpisane w schematyczną strukturę narracyjną. Mimo, że jest to tak naprawdę jedyne „medium masowe” w Indiach, tamtejsze kino to coś więcej niż rozrywka i eskapistyczne fantazje.

  • Reel to Realpolitik: the Golden Years of Indian Cinema Overseas
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Invention (IJHSSI) ISSN (Online): 2319 – 7722, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 7714 www.ijhssi.org ||Volume 10 Issue 5 Ser. II || May 2021 || PP 09-16 Reel To Realpolitik: The Golden Years Of Indian Cinema Overseas Saumya Singh School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, India ABSTRACT This paper seeks to establish the links between cinema and foreign policy of a state. An important illustration is the popular reception of Bollywood abroad in the heydays of cold war. In a world simmering with tensions, the nascent film industry of India reflected the crisis of existence that its newly independent state faced. The imagination of India seeped into the consciousness of the country’s artistic, cultural, political and social scene. Bollywood had produced the best movies like Awaara and Mother India with stars such as Raj Kapoor and Nargis winning the hearts of Turkish, Russians and Nigerians alike. The aim here is to connect the acceptance of Indian cinema in the corners of the world during the 1950s and 1960s as a success of the idea of third world. Now, in a multipolar order, when India seeks to acquire a global ascendancy, it can judiciously conceive it's hard and soft power resources to woo the world. Taking cue from history, we propose a cautious utilisation of cultural resources for foreign policy ends. KEYWORDS- soft power, diplomacy, foreign policy, Bollywood, Indian Culture --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date of Submission: 08-05-2021 Date of Acceptance: 22-05-2021 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I. INTRODUCTION The aim of this paper is to study how Bollywood functioned as a tool of promoting India’s soft power interests in the decade of 1950’s and 1960’s.
