  • 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.

  • IFFI 2007–Non-Feature Films
    IFFI 2007–Non-Feature Films Abhijit Ghosh-Dastidar The International Film Festival at Goa (November 07) offered beautiful, humane portraits in the non-features section of Indian Panorama. Buddhadeb Das Gupta's ''Naushad Ali—The Melody Continues" (Hindi, colour, 39 mins) is a tribute to Naushad Ali, the legendary music composer from Bombay's film world, and the film landscape of the times. The film commences with Dilip Kumar, the actor, visiting Naushad Ali, admitted in Bombay hospital. Naushad passed away in May 06. An 'alap' song, composed by Naushad and sung by Bade Ghulam Ali, from ''Moghal-e-Azam'', is at the debut of the sound track. The voice over states that Naushad was closely linked to Lucknow, where he was born in December 1919. The camera travels along the lanes and streets of Lucknow, with Moghal monuments in the background. Naushad's father was a munshi in court. Naushad had spent his childhood at his grandmother's house. His uncle, Allam, had a harmonium shop, and soon Naushad found a job in a musical instruments shop. He started watching films from the age of eight at the Royal Cinema hall. He was fascinated by the off screen musicians of silent films. Clips from musical silent films roll by. Babbar Khan coached Naushed on the harmonium. Naushad shifted to Bombay in 1937. He spent nights below a staircase. He joined DN Madhok's film production company, and made music for films like ''Mala'' and ''Prem Nagar'', for which he was paid Rs 300 only for each film. He composed classical music to fit the songs of Shamshad Begum in "Baiju Bawra''.

  • In Peshawar, Pakistan
    Sci.Int.(Lahore),29(4),851-859, 2017 ISSN 1013-5316;CODEN: SINTE 8 851 SIGNIFICANT DILAPIDATED HAVELIES (RESIDENTIAL PLACES) IN PESHAWAR, PAKISTAN Samina Saleem Taxila Institute of Asian Civilizations Quaid-i-Azam University Islamabad Present address: Government Degree College for Women, Muslim Town Rawalpindi, Pakistan [email protected] ABSTRACT:: This research is mainly based on the documentation of enormous havelies in Peshawar, which are not documented. It was noticed during the survey that the area of Qissa Khwani bazaar in Peshawar is overwhelmingly filled with enormous Havelies and buildings. It seems that constructing massive residential places was a tradition of Peshawar city, because Muslims, Hindus and Sikhs who were financially well-off always liked to spend generously on their residential places. Havelies are such living places, which are called havelies either for their enormous size or for some other significancefor being used as social, cultural, religious and business place. Unfortunately the buildings are in a dilapidated state due to the negligence of the authorities and the residents. The main focus of the research is on the residential places of the iconic stars of Indian Films who used to reside in these havelies before Independence of Pakistan. The famous havelies that will be discussed are Raj Kapoor haveli, Dilip Kumar haveli, Shah Rukh Khan Haveli and some important features of havelies of Sethi family. This research is significant because these havelies have never been documented and even now no efforts are being done to protect or restore them. The woodwork in the buildings, which is very intricate especially doors and windows and the architectural style used in these Havelies, which is a combination of Hindu and Mughal building style and sometimes Central Asian influences can also be seen due to the strategic situation of Peshawar.

  • 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.

    PJAEE, 17(6) (2020) REPRESENTATION OF SIKH CHARACTER IN BOLLYWOOD MOVIES:A STUDY ON SELECTIVE BOLLYWOOD MOVIES Navpreet Kaur Assistant Professor University Institute of Media Studies, Chandigarh University, Punjab, India [email protected] Navpreet Kaur, Representation Of Sikh Character In Bollywood Movies: A Study On Selective Bollywood Movies– Palarch’s Journal of Archaeology of Egypt/Egyptology 17(6) (2020), ISSN 1567-214X. 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.

  • Shankar Jaikishan – Emperors of Music by Ashwini Kumar Rath
    Shankar Jaikishan – Emperors of Music By Ashwini Kumar Rath Shankar Jaikishan music, synonym of Indian Film music, has far reaching impact in India and outside. The duo moulded music and musical mood of masses since 1949, and are still considered to be the best music composers from India. The duo also contributed outside movie industry with their much celebrated album Raga in Jazz Style, and background music for documentary Everest expedition among many others. If we look at the popular impact by any personalities in the field of music during the post-independence period in India, the obvious choice is Shankar Jaikishan. Shankar, the more versatile of the two, was a prolific musician with mastery over dozens of instruments, Indian classical music and dance forms. He was primarily responsible for building Shankar Jaikishan team with dedicated lyricists, music assistants, and jumbo-sized 60-pieces orchestra, and was the lead composer. On the other hand, Jaikishan was incredibly creative and legendary composer himself. He was genius of background music and romantic tunes though he too could compose songs in other genres. While Shankar's musical jhankar propels divine dwellers to zoom in unison with ecstasy, romantic effervescence of Jaikishan music brings divine feelings on to earth. During initial years, all decisions about musical engagements were made by Shankar; but both started taking up assignments separately in the late sixties. They had sharp contrasts in personalities and physical appearances. Shankar was gym-savvy, non- drinker, and was a strict disciplinarian. On the other hand, Jaikishan was party-man and was very social.
