  • Yash Chopra the Legend
    YASH CHOPRA THE LEGEND Visionary. Director. Producer. Legendary Dream Merchant of Indian Cinema. And a trailblazer who paved the way for the Indian entertainment industry. 1932 - 2012 Genre defining director, star-maker and a studio mogul, Yash Chopra has been instrumental in shaping the symbolism of mainstream Hindi cinema across the globe. Popularly known as the ‘King of Romance’ for his string of hit romantic films spanning over a five-decade career, he redefined drama and romance onscreen. Born on 27 September 1932, Yash Chopra's journey began from the lush green fields of Punjab, which kept reappearing in his films in all their splendour. © Yash Raj Films Pvt. Ltd. 1 www.yashrajfilms.com Yash Chopra started out as an assistant to his brother, B. R. Chopra, and went on to direct 5 very successful films for his brother’s banner - B. R. Films, each of which proved to be a significant milestone in his development as a world class director of blockbusters. These were DHOOL KA PHOOL (1959), DHARMPUTRA (1961), WAQT (1965) - India’s first true multi-starrer generational family drama, ITTEFAQ (1969) & AADMI AUR INSAAN (1969). He has wielded the baton additionally for 4 films made by other film companies - JOSHILA (1973), DEEWAAR (1975), TRISHUL (1978) & PARAMPARA (1993). But his greatest repertoire of work were the 50 plus films made under the banner that he launched - the banner that stands for the best of Hindi cinema - YRF. Out of these films, he directed 13 himself and these films have defined much of the language of Hindi films as we know them today.

  • Historical Disjunctures and Bollywood Audiences in Trinidad: Negotiations of Gender and Ethnic Relations in Cinema Going1
    . Volume 16, Issue 2 November 2019 Historical disjunctures and Bollywood audiences in Trinidad: Negotiations of gender 1 and ethnic relations in cinema going Hanna Klien-Thomas Oxford Brookes University, UK Abstract: Hindi cinema has formed an integral part of the media landscape in Trinidad. Audiences have primarily consisted of the descendants of indentured workers from India. Recent changes in production, distribution and consumption related to the emergence of the Bollywood culture industry have led to disruptions in the local reception context, resulting in a decline in cinema-going as well as the diminishing role of Hindi film as ethnic identity marker. This paper presents results of ethnographic research conducted at the release of the blockbuster ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’. It focuses on young women’s experiences as members of a ‘new’ Bollywood audience, characterised by a regionally defined middle class belonging and related consumption practices. In order to understand how the disjuncture is negotiated by contemporary audiences, cinema-going as a cultural practice is historically contextualised with a focus on the dynamic interdependencies of gender and ethnicity. Keywords: Hindi cinema, Caribbean, Bollywood, Indo-Trinidadian identity, Indian diaspora, female audiences, ethnicity Introduction Since the early days of cinema, Indian film productions have circulated globally, establishing transnational and transcultural audiences. In the Caribbean, first screenings are reported from the 1930s. Due to colonial labour regimes, large Indian diasporic communities existed in the region, who embraced the films as a connection to their country of origin or ancestral homeland. Consequently, Hindi speaking films and more recently the products of the global culture industry Bollywood, have become integral parts of regional media landscapes.

It has been proved by previous studies that when films are shot in a destination it boosts tourism. Government also offers various initiatives to promote film shooting so that tourism can be encashed.

The study found that films give a boost to tourism and various international destinations have been trying to woo Indian film makers to shoot at their locations. Even the ministry of tourism, government of India also gives incentives to filmmakers in order to promote film tourism. Keywords: film tourism, cinema, tourism, movies. Introduction Bollywood is a cardinal part of Indian society and has a considerable impact on the members of society.

    Most-subscribed STREAMING KINGS channels WHAT INDIA WAS WATCHING IN 2012 Korean pop star PSY became a worldwide phenomenon this year thanks to his Gangnam Style video going viral online. Last year, Kolaveri Di had become a national obsession — it spawned several clones in multiple languages — right through this year. Both videos can thank YouTube for raising them to cult status. This year, the video streaming website has come out with what the country has been watching in 2012. Did you know, for example, that YoYo Honey Singh’s ‘Brown Rang’ was the top trending YouTube video this year, followed by ‘Gangnam Style’, beating ‘Mashallah’ from Ek Tha Tiger, which took the third spot? Of course, except for the top two videos, the rest were all songs from Bollywood films. No surprise then that T-Series was the most-subscribed channel. TV soap Bade Acche Lagte 1 T-Series Hai was the most watched TV show, indicating that either the soap or YouTube has transcended age barriers. 2 Setindia And, it came as no surprise that Shah Rukh Khan-starrer Jab Tak Hai Jaan’s was the most-watched trailer 3 YRF (Yash Raj Films) 4 Erosentertainment Top-trending YouTube 5 Rajshri videos in India (playlist) 6 TeluguOne 1 Brown Rang full song HD 7 SonymusicindiaSME International Villager (Yo Yo Honey Singh) 8 MTV Roadies 2 Gangnam Style: Music video (PSY) 9 Olympic (Official channel) 3 Mashallah: Song - Ek Tha Tiger (Salman 10MaaTV Khan & Katrina Kaif) 4 High Heels official video Most-watched Jaz Dhami Ft (Yo Yo Honey Singh) TV Shows 5 Tumhi Ho Bandhu: Song promo

  • 6. Life Imitating Art: Asian Romance Movies As a Social Mirror
    CELEBRITY AND SCANDAL 6. Life imitating art: Asian romance movies as a social mirror ABSTRACT As a genre of mass media, the romance movie has the potential to influence and shape audience’s views on socio-cultural issues of the time (Rahman, 2013). Asian romance movies often depict behaviours that challenge thei moral code such as obeying authority, adherence to cultural norms and putting society before self. For dramatic effect, such movies would often showcase scandalous themes and socially objectionable behaviours which are eventually resolved, indicating a return to socially accepted codes of conduct. There is a clear appreciation of values considered ideal in romantic partnerships including honesty and fidelity. Interestingly, such movies appear to capture the Asian diaspora, challenging social norms and negotiating its values, behaviours and beliefs against foreign elements. This article explores the scandals and consequences portrayed in some of these Asian movies, evaluating the effect this might have on their actors and a receptive audience. Elements of scandal in the personal lives of some of the actors make a case for life and art imitating the other in a cycle of challenge, compromise and conformity. Keywords: Asian romance movies, celebrity, scandal, collective representation, media representation, morality, KHAIRIAH A RAHMAN Auckland University of Technology SIAN ROMANCE movies have captured social shifts in cultural values of their times, from adaptation of their rich colonial herit- Aage to their emerging global cultural diaspora. With its inhabitants making up 60 percent of the world’s population, Asia is the world’s largest continent with large numbers of its population migrating to locations within Asia, America and Europe.
