  • 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.

  • An Outline, Indian Film Theory Auteur Theory: the Term 'Auteu
    Film Theory: key concepts- evolution, major features, theorists- an outline, Indian film theory Auteur Theory: politique des The term ‘auteur’ is the French term for author and became a part of the film studies auteurs Cahiers du cinema register in the 1950’s after the debate on the “polemic about authors” or the , when the French film critics associated with the film magazine adopted the term to recognize the director of the film as its author. It is he who is responsible for the aesthetic quality of the film. The critics came to be known as the Cahiers critics and included critics like François Truffaut and Jean-Luc Godard, who argued that since the director controlled all the aspects of film making and editing, it is only he who can employ them effectively to produce the desired aesthetic effect. The final artistic result is not the script writer’s but the director’s visualization has already been discussed in the section on film as art. This theory gave rise to the technique of recognition of peculiarities in the cinematographic techniques of a particular author, which eventually became his signature style- visible in his movies even if they differed in genre and themes. The concept of the auteur initially gave the critics the liberty to attribute the aesthetic quality of a film to the director, a proponent of this theory Andrew Harris went as far as to create a ranking system of the directors. However, the voices of dissent against this theory soon began in the 1960’s and 1970’s when the waves of structuralism, Marxism and psychoanalysis began influencing the film discourse.

It is surprisingly related today. The main theme of Shakespeare’s work is ‘LOVE’- ‘the blind fool’. He indirectly acknowledges there may be obstacles in true love and urges to marry with true ‘mind’ rather than merely two people. This love is a bold subject matter that has always lacked rules and always attracts controversy - specially within the strict norms of Asian Culture. These various challenges and obstacles make multistory-love-complex silently. Cinema woos audiences by offering this emotion. Modern Indian Cineme is already an indestructible massive field of art work which has been successfully taken the extract of the Shakespearean drama to serve the common. The literary works of Shakespeare reinvigorate uncountable people of the world.

    Kervan – International Journal of Afro-Asiatic Studies n. 21 (2017) Item Girls and Objects of Dreams: Why Indian Censors Agree to Bold Scenes in Bollywood Films Tatiana Szurlej The article presents the social background, which helped Bollywood film industry to develop the so-called “item numbers”, replace them by “dream sequences”, and come back to the “item number” formula again. The songs performed by the film vamp or the character, who takes no part in the story, the musical interludes, which replaced the first way to show on the screen all elements which are theoretically banned, and the guest appearances of film stars on the screen are a very clever ways to fight all the prohibitions imposed by Indian censors. Censors found that film censorship was necessary, because the film as a medium is much more popular than literature or theater, and therefore has an impact on all people. Indeed, the viewers perceive the screen story as the world around them, so it becomes easy for them to accept the screen reality and move it to everyday life. That’s why the movie, despite the fact that even the very process of its creation is much more conventional than, for example, the theater performance, seems to be much more “real” to the audience than any story shown on the stage. Therefore, despite the fact that one of the most dangerous elements on which Indian censorship seems to be extremely sensitive is eroticism, this is also the most desired part of cinema. Moreover, filmmakers, who are tightly constrained, need at the same time to provide pleasure to the audience to get the invested money back, so they invented various tricks by which they manage to bypass censorship.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Visual Grandeur, Imagined Glory: Identity Politics and Hindu Nationalism in Bajirao Mastani and Padmaavat Abstract This paper examines the tropes through which the Hindi (Bollywood) historical films Bajirao Mastani (2015) and Padmaavat (2018) create idealised pasts on screen that speak to Hindu nationalist politics of present-day India. Bajirao Mastani is based on a popular tale of love, between Bajirao I (1700-1740), a powerful Brahmin general, and Mastani, daughter of a Hindu king and his Iranian mistress. The er lationship was socially disapproved because of Mastani`s mixed parentage. The film distorts India`s pluralistic heritage by idealising Bajirao as an embodiment of Hindu nationalism and portraying Islam as inimical to Hinduism. Padmaavat is a film about a legendary (Hindu) Rajput queen coveted by the Muslim emperor Alauddin Khilji (ruled from 1296-1316).

  • “The Woman Waylaid at the Well” Or Paṇaghaṭa-Līlā an Indian Folk Theme Appropriated in Myth and Movies
    Heidi Pauwels University of Washington, Seattle “The Woman Waylaid at the Well” or Paṇaghaṭa-līlā An Indian Folk Theme Appropriated in Myth and Movies This article seeks to contribute to studying the manifold and interesting ways Indian popular movies have appropriated folk and mythological materials by focusing on the paṇaghaṭa-līlā or the theme of “the woman waylaid at the well.” This theme is an important one because it raises the issue of so-called “eve-teasing,” a form of sexual harassment of women omnipresent in public spaces in South Asia. The article in turn discusses the folk and the mythologi- cal treatments of the paṇaghaṭa-līlā, before analyzing its adaptations in song in three popular Hindi movies: the recent remaking of Devdas by Sanjay Leela Bhansali (2002), P. L. Santoshi’s Barsaat ki Raat (1960), which deploys the theme in a Qawwālī context, and finally the classicMother India by Mehboob Khan (1957). Each movie illustrates a different type of contextualization of the theme. keywords: Women folk songs–—well—sexual harassment—Hindi popular movie—Qawwālī—Bhakti Asian Ethnology Volume 69, Number 1 • 2010, 1–33 © Nanzan Institute for Religion and Culture his article studies the interface between folklore, mythology, and movies.
