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.

  • Realism and Fantasy in Hindi Cinema
    Excerpt • Temple University Press Introduction M ir r o r a n d L a m p n 2013 India celebrated a hundred years of cinema. During its century this cinema, and in particular Hindi-language popular cinema, arguably the Imost important of several cinema industries in the Subcontinent, has been both mirror and lamp—reflecting “Indianness” back to Indians at home and abroad, but also shaping Indianness. Movie-going in India is a special sort of pleasure—for many affording rare access to privacy, a sometimes three-hour- long respite from noise and heat in an air-conditioned, carpeted interior, where one can be alone with oneself among others, in the dark. This pleasure neces- sarily induces a different relation to interior, psychic space, without having to submit to sleep, even absenting the enjoying ego from the enjoyment: this is as close to accessing (unconscious) desire as most ever come, and could even be considered a kind of wild psychoanalysis. For many Indians without the means, it affords opportunities to travel (“transport”?), if only on the wings of fan- tasy: to alternative realities, foreign locales, alien cultures, unfamiliar aesthet- ics of self and unaccustomed social arrangements, pleasurable disorientations of everyday life. The “dream machine” is also a space-time travel machine— “motion” pictures move us to different zones, to unaccustomed emotions. Sitting in darkened cinema theaters in India, the spectator might also be struck by how often Indianness itself is what is being screened—in both senses. Hindi cinema has been, to change metaphors, a “dream machine,” producing images of collective or national identity that, with every iteration, prove more transitional, contradictory, and elusive or enable us to screen truths about our- selves from ourselves.

The idea has served us well for thousands of years, although the form of stress we encounter today is starkly different from what our ancestors faced. In earlier times, if one faced a deadly animal, they would be ready to fight, or flee, in a flash. Once the threat was over, one would return to one’s normal state — a state of balance. In today’s world, the types of stress we face are not direct, or physical. Contemporary stress is more often related to, or caused by, emotional and psychological factors. So, you may well guess that the “fight-or-flight” response of yore is not appropriate to our times. You cannot, for instance, “blast” your manager if you do not agree with their line of thought on a given project, right? certain amount of stress is part of our condition.

  • 100 Essential Indian Films, by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Datta
    Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media no. 21, 2021, pp. 239–243 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.21.21 100 Essential Indian Films, by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Datta. Rowman & Littlefield, 2019, 283 pp. Darshana Chakrabarty Among the many film industries of South Asia, the Indian film industry is the most prolific, specifically Hindi language film, more commonly known as Bollywood, which produces almost four hundred films annually. Bollywood films dominate the national market. These films have also been exported successfully to parts of the Middle East, Africa, and the Asiatic regions of the former Soviet Union, as well as to Canada, Australia, the UK, and the US. The success of these films abroad is largely down to the presence of Indian communities living in these regions; as the conventional melodramatic plot structures, dance numbers and musicals tend to deter Western audiences. Within India and abroad “the traditional division between India’s popular cinema and its ‘art’ or ‘parallel’ cinema, modelled after India's most prestigious film-director Satyajit Ray, often produced the uncritical assumption that Indian films are either ‘Ray or rubbish’” (Chaudhuri 137). Recently, Indian film criticism has begun focusing on popular Indian cinema, assessing the multi-discursive elements of the cinematic creations. Bollywood “gained prominence within academia due to its growing popularity and unique manner of glorifying Indian familial values” (Sinha 3). From a history and origin of Indian motion pictures to selecting films that best represent the diversity, integrity and heritage of the nation, 100 Essential Indian Films by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Dutta is a concise book on Indian cinema for connoisseurs and for film enthusiasts taking an interest in India’s classic and contemporary cinema.

  • A Comparison of Laws and Jurisprudence on 'Obscenity' In
    European Journal of Molecular & Clinical Medicine ISSN 2515-8260 Volume 07, Issue 08, 2020 A Comparison Of Laws And Jurisprudence On ‘Obscenity’ In India, The Us And The Uk Harikumar Pallathadka Manipur International University, Imphal, Manipur, India [email protected] Abstract Every society abides by a specific code of morals. This is to protect the collective interests of everyone living in association and guard one's integrity. Morals also play a role in preserving culture. Weakening of one’s moral compass dissuades one from following the law and subsequently leads to the condoning of indecent acts and crimes. This disrupts the harmony of society and leads to an atmosphere of discomfort and lack of safety. Anything lacking in discipline or a sense of core values is thought to be immoral. Obscenity can be taken to be a form of immortality. Obscenity, in its wide ambit, may include any vulgar expressions, graphic or explicit descriptions, derogatory portrayal, vulgar depiction, or content capable of inciting moral repugnance. According to Black's Law Dictionary, “obscenity means character or quality of being obscene, and conduct tending to corrupt the public merely by its indecency or lewdness.”1 According to Webster's New International Dictionary, “the word 'obscene' means disgusting to the senses, usually because of some filthy grotesque or unnatural quality, grossly repugnant to the generally accepted notions of what is appropriate.”2 Both in language and law, obscenity has been defined loosely. Its meaning is affected mainly by the prevalent morality of the time. Although not adequately defined, various laws in our country regulate obscene published content in various media of expression – film, literature, art and critique.
