  • Khorana Peepli Live FINAL
    Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica 66 Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica: Remediating the “Bollywoodization” of Indian TV News Sukhmani Khorana Lecturer University of Wollongong Wollongong, Australia [email protected] Introduction: Evolution of “Bollywoodization” in Indian TV news In the third edition of her pioneering book on the Indian media business, Vanita Kohli-Khandekar makes the following observation: There are two media segments that define the contour, body and tastes of the Indian market. Television is one of them, the other being film. Both have a mesmerising hold over Indian audiences―and even over investors and advertisers.1 This article begins with this note because of the increasingly central place occupied by television in the Indian media sphere and the uniquely Indian context of the mutual interdependence of the television and film industries. While television has appropriated Hollywood film genres since its inception,2 in India, popular film culture is increasingly drawing on the pre-eminence of satellite television. A grasp of these facets of the subcontinent’s television story is essential before examining how TV news has taken on discursive and practice-based elements of the nation’s popular film culture, Bollywood. This will be undertaken through a close textual analysis of two recent Bollywood films, Peepli Live (2010) and No One Killed Jessica (2011). Both feature television journalism as an important narrative catalyst, or a remediator for the socio-political issues faced by the protagonist(s). In doing this, the films themselves turn into a remediation device for the Bollywoodization of news on Peepli Live and No One Killed Jessica 67 Indian television.

  • 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.

  • Interrogating Masculinity Through the Child Figure in Bombay Cinema
    Networking Knowledge: Journal of the MeCCSA Postgraduate Network, Vol. 4, No. 1 (2011) ARTICLE Interrogating Masculinity through the Child Figure in Bombay Cinema SIDDHARTH PANDEY, University of Delhi, India Abstract Patriarchy is most often understood in relation to the position of women in society. I propose to interrogate patriarchy in relation to children – particularly the male child – as depicted in two major works of Bombay Cinema. The number and scope of critical engagements with the onscreen portrayal of the child figure are restricted, and in the light of this lack I interrogate the portrayal of the male child figure, with particular emphasis on the constructs of masculinity that always implicate the child. The paper will undertake a detailed analysis of these masculine constructs, which are significantly shaped and interrogated in the areas of family and educational institutions for the male child (See Kakar 1981, and Haywood and Mac an Ghaill, 2003). For case studies, I analyze two highly acclaimed contemporary movies of Bombay Cinema: Taare Zameen Par (by Aamir Khan, 2007) and Udaan (by Vikramditya Motwane, 2010). Both movies critique the many notions associated with manhood and masculinity by situating their arguments within the contexts of family and educational institutions. What makes these critiques even more significant is the resistance offered by the child figure to conventional masculine authority through the agency of imagination. With such agency, not only does the male child debunk the traditionally sanctioned interests and attitudes of men, but also brings about a reconfiguration of those behavioral co-ordinates that have till now dominated the domains of family and education.

  • Catch a Falling Star
    DATA TRACKER Catch a falling star Who would have thought that Aamir Khan, once the heartthrob of millions, would become the target of so much ridicule and public anger? The star had a dream debut with Qayamat se Qayamat Tak, and subsequently won scores of fans and critical acclaim with movies like Rang de Basanti, Taare Zameen Par and 3 Idiots, among many others. His popularity soared with a television show that he produced and anchored, called Satyameva Jayate (SMJ) — a talk show around social problems such as inequality, abused women, child trafficking and such others. SMJ was Aamir’s first turn on a political stage and the three seasons, that it played for, resulted in donations pouring in from the public, for a number of causes TOP 10 CELEBRITIES IN PRINT BY NEWS BUZZ National Celebrity % PR Share in Bollywood Industry Rank Jan - Oct ‘14 Jan - Oct ‘15 Jan - Oct ‘14 Jan - Oct ‘15 1 Salman Khan Salman Khan 4.8 6 !" 2 Shah Rukh Khan Amitabh Bachchan 4.0 4 # 3 Amitabh Bachchan Shah Rukh Khan 3.3 3 $ 4 Deepika Padukone Deepika Padukone 3.0 3 !" 5 Priyanka Chopra Ranbir Kapoor 2.6 2 # 6 AAMIR KHAN Akshay Kumar 2.5 2 # 7 Ranbir Kapoor Priyanka Chopra 2.3 2 $ 8 Akshay Kumar AAMIR KHAN 2.2 2 $ 9 Hrithik Roshan Kangana Ranaut 2.1 2 New 10 Kareena Kapoor Anushka Sharma 2.1 2 New Sometime towards the beginning of last year, things began to unravel for Aamir Khan.

Lagaan is a Bollywood movie released in 2001 and is directed by Ashutosh Gowariker. The fictional story is set in a village in India and it explores the struggles faced by the citizens to earn their rights. Taking in account of the movie, the paper analyses the socio-political scenario of the country. Keywords: Post Colonialism, Political resistance, Lagaan Analysis: “Iss aetihasik jeet ke baad bhi itihas main Bhuvan ka naam kahi kho gaya” (Even after the historical win, Bhuvan lost his identity in the history of struggle) - Lagaan Indian film industry which is a collective formation of cinemas from various languages has evolved as a major form of entertainment. But as time passed, it has become a source of voice for the voiceless. The Indian directors chose the medium to speak about the socio-political background of the country. Though majority of the mass enjoyed a commercial treatment, there has always been a want for experiments. In the current scenario, movie critics play a major role in analysing the soul of the movie.
