  • 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.

  • Adaptation of Shakespeare's Plays Into Films: the Dark Side
    European Journal of English Language and Literature Studies Vol. 4, Issue 7, pp. 35-39, November 201 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) ADAPTATION OF SHAKESPEARE'S PLAYS INTO FILMS: THE DARK SIDE Azeez Jasim Mohammed Assistant Professor, Department of English Language and Literature, Jerash University, Jerash 26150, Jordan ABSTRACT: To what extent our innermost feelings can be revealed through our works? The unbearable face of human being cannot be hidden and what a director shot in a film may reveal the real sense of what is hidden from our eyes. Thus directors sometimes try to hide their dark side behind such interesting movies after having modified the events of the original text to achieve their end. This paper, however, is an overview about the technique of adaptation which varies from one adaptationist to another depending on the historical background of the screenplay writer. Although the director succeeds to project what is on one side of his curtain, he fails to hide what is on the other side that discloses his innermost feelings KEYWORDS: Dark side, Shakespeare, adaptation, Vishal Bhardwaj, Sadism, Masochism INTRODUCTION In this paper, I start from where I ended my last essay on media and literature which presented the relationship between the content of a literary work and its modified version after adaptation into films. The core of which was the role of the mass media which consisted of various layers of meaning superimposed on one another. I enhanced the study with two specific instances those served as illustrations; 'Best Defense', a Hollywood movie based on Robert Grossbach’s novel Easy and Hard Ways Out (1974) and 'World War Z'; another Hollywood movie based on the New York Times bestseller and an apocalyptic horror novel World War Z: An Oral History of the Zombie War (2006) by Max Brooks.

  • Sederi 29 (2019: 221–26) Reviews Differently, with a Focus on Indianization
    Poonam Trivedi and Paromita Chakravarti, eds. 2018 Shakespeare and Indian Cinemas: Local Habitations New York: Routledge Rosa García-Periago Queen’s University, Belfast, UK Poonam Trivedi and Paromita Chakravarti’s Shakespeare and Indian Cinemas: Local Habitations (2018) is a more-than-welcome addition to the field of Shakespeare film scholarship. It is a superb and groundbreaking collection that aims to explore Shakespeare on the Indian screen beyond Bollywood cinema. Thus, it moves away completely from previous research on Indian Shakespeares, which mainly focused on Bollywood cinema, Bollywood Shakespeares (Dionne and Kapadia 2014) being a case in point. Numerous articles and chapters have been devoted to this field. Jonathan Locke Hart’s latest collection Shakespeare and Asia (2019) includes for instance a chapter on Goliyon ki Rasleela Ram Leela (a Bollywood movie based on Romeo and Juliet) and Jonathan Gil Harris’ Masala Shakespeare (2018) discusses several Bollywood Shakespearean adaptations throughout. Those essays that have gone beyond Bollywood Shakespeares have mostly focused on Vishal Bhardwaj’s trilogy, either regarded as challenging Bollywood conventions (García-Periago 2014) or examples of “auteur” films (Burnett 2013). However, the way Shakespeare has been used or reinterpreted in Indian regional cinemas has been quite scarce and limited. Burnett’s Shakespeare and World Cinema (2013) is one of the few instances with a chapter on the southern Indian filmmaker Jayaraj. Hence, this book opens uncharted territory, exploring in depth Shakespeare’s presence outside the Bollywood arena, and claims for more visibility of regional cinemas. Trivedi and Chakravarti’s collection is precisely distinctive in its emphasis on regionalism for further research in the relations between Indian film and Shakespeare.

  • 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.

    "Light Your Cigarette with My Heart's Fire, My Love": Raunchy Dances and a Golden- hearted Prostitute in Bhardwaj's Omkara (2006) Madhavi Biswas, University of Texas Dallas Abstract This essay argues that Omkara (dir. Vishal Bhardwaj, 2006) foregrounds contemporary gender concerns in modern, small-town India, primarily through the film's reformulation of the three female roles in Othello. Billo/Bianca, played by a glamorous, contemporary, female star, gets her own romance and two popular and raunchy song-and-dance tracks in Omkara. These dance tracks are a peculiar mixture of traditional folk Nautanki and identifiable Bollywood masala "item numbers," whose layered lyrics have been penned by Gulzar, a well-known poet, lyricist, scriptwriter, and ex-film-director who closely collaborates with Bhardwaj. The essay argues for the recognition of the songs in Omkara as a parallel narrative that intertwines with and intersects the central narrative of the plot, inflecting it with a range of cultural and social intertexts, along with a dash of metatextual flavor. The article examines how the two song-and-dance sequences by Billo/Bianca in the film use the familiar tropes of the "courtesan" figure of Hindi films and draw upon traditional folk-theater — reflecting both its local poetry and its vulgarity — to evoke a new kind of verbal and visual "realism" that intertwines Bollywood glamor with local histories. Omkara, with its big budget stars, glossy production values, and popular song- and-dance numbers interspersing the narrative — elements that are often associated with the "Bollywood" style of Hindi cinema — is the most obviously commercial of Vishal Bhardwaj's three Shakespearean adaptations.

  • Visual Parallels Between Two Auteur Directors in Hindi Cinema: Vishal Bhardwaj & Sanjay Leela Bhansali
    International Journal of Future Generation Communication and Networking Vol. 14, No. 1, (2021), pp. 2701–2707 Visual Parallels Between Two Auteur Directors In Hindi Cinema: Vishal Bhardwaj & Sanjay Leela Bhansali Sanika Kulkarni Assistant Professor Tilak Maharashtra Vidyapeeth Abstract: The term Auteur is commonly referred to directors who apply highly consolidated and subjective control to many aspects of a collaborative creative work; they are considered equivalent to authors of a novel or a play. In simple terms, the director of the film is the author; it is his vision of how the film should be presented and everyone in the production process is just assisting it. Though there have been several examples proving the term Auteur and legitimizing the director as the author, this theory has faced a lot of backlashes especially from the radical critics posing that the process of cinema is that of collaboration and teamwork. Some of the critics still state that this gives the director a sense of ownership and film can be seen only as a work of a collective and not as a work of a single person. What these critics fail to take in consideration is that even before the existence of Auteur theory, directors were still considered to be the most important among the people working on film. After various studies, critics coined the term and they identified that each director had individual stylistic techniques as well as specific things which were prevalent in their respective films. An examination of film authorship should cover the evolution of authorship theory from the 1960s to the present.

  • Vishal Bhardwaj the Sportsman Who Turned Music Composer to Woo His Collegemate
    nos 008 Vishal Bhardwaj the sportsman who turned music composer to woo his collegemate In his own words I did BA Pass, which we used to call the ‘royal course’ at that time. Students from sports quota, aspiring artists, basically those who didn’t want to study, opted for it ! . I had come from Meerut, and being from a small town, college was a totally new world for me. I met so many musicians and learned music here. I’d have never become a composer or a filmmaker had I not studied here. College also brought newfound freedom. But to the aspirants, I want to say that this freedom and liberty come with responsibilities. And hey outstation students, don’t ever feel like a misfit. Always remember that it is the people from outside who make it big. Even in films, people who’ve come from outside Bombay have done better. I came from a small town, but never felt lonely because I stayed in the college hostel and everyone immediately became family, including the hostel staff. I remember living on bun-anda, roaming around till 4 in the morning . Unlike most guys, we never hung out around Miranda House, because the girls in our college were so pretty. Rekha (wife, singer Rekha Bhardwaj) was my senior and just to woo her, I became a composer. But, she was not the first one I tried to woo. I had many heartbreaks before that! adapted from 28 Jun 2015 Hindustan Times (Delhi) alumnus Vishal BA and alumna Rekha (a well – known singer).
