For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Introduction Bollywood in Australia Andrew Hassam and Makand Paranjape The global context of Bollywood in Australia Makarand Paranjape The transcultural character and reach of Bollywood cinema has been gradually more visible and obvious over the last two decades. What is less understood and explored is its escalating integration with audiences, markets and entertainment industries beyond the Indian subcontinent. This book explores the relationship of Bollywood to Australia. We believe that this increasingly important relationship is an outcome of the convergence between two remarkably dynamic entities—globalising Bollywood, on the one hand and Asianising Australia, on the other. If there is a third element in this relationship, which is equally important, it is the mediating power of the vibrant diasporic community of South Asians in Australia. Hence, at its most basic, this book explores the conjunctures and ruptures between these three forces: Bollywood, Australia and their interface, the diaspora. 1 Bollywood in Australia It would be useful to see, at the outset, how Bollywood here refers not only to the Bombay film industry, but is symbolic of the Indian and even the South Asian film industry.

  • Clare M. Wilkinson-Weber
    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.

    GIRL RISING INDIA Building a Movement for Girls Through Powerful Storytelling Girl Rising uses the power of storytelling to inspire, shift attitudes and change behavior. In India, Girl Rising’s powerful media tools have made meaningful strides towards increasing the agency of girls and women, and inspiring community members to support the movement for gender equality. Girl Rising Film Comes To India After a close consultation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi and a partnership with the Ministry of Women and Child Development, the Girl Rising film was launched in India in August 2015 as Woh Padhegi, Woh Udegi (She Learns, She Rises) on Star television, which has a network of 450 million viewers across the country and a reach of 100+ countries. The film harnessed the talents of India’s biggest Bollywood stars including Priyanka Chopra, Freida Pinto, Parineeti Chopra, Kareena Kapoor Khan, Madhuri Dixit, Sushmita Sen, Amitabh Bachchan, Nandita Das, Farhan Akhtar, and Alia Bhatt, all of whom lent their voices to the film. Celebrities promoted the launch through their social media networks, and #IAMGirlRising trended No. 1 on Twitter India. Film Screenings To stir important conversations about girls’ education among corporations, communities, universities and neighborhoods, a screenings program was launched soon after the television broadcast of the film. Under this program, Woh Padhegi, Woh Udegi was re-purposed for NGO and corporate audiences. Each version consisted of 3 stories from Woh Padhegi, Woh Udegi and was complemented by a screenings toolkit that contained resources including discussion guides, Director’s Q&A, and promotional materials to help steer conversations around barriers to education.

The theme of this year’s report, ‘Rise of the Millennials’, recognizes the ascent of millennial celebrity endorsers to the top of our brand value rankings. India currently has a millennial population of around 400 million and is expected to become the youngest country in the world by 2020 with a median age of 29. India’s millennial population is experiencing high growth in disposable income levels and thus, it is increasingly becoming crucial for companies to add endorsers who can influence this segment of the population. Varun Gupta Managing Director For the first time since inception of our rankings, Shah Rukh Khan has slipped from Duff & Phelps India the number one rank, replaced by Virat Kohli, who has become the primary choice of product brands to engage and attract consumers. This can be attributed to his extraordinary on-field performances and off-field charisma.
