These films actualize region as a cinematic imaginary through its authenticity markers – caste/ist practices explicitly, which earlier films constructed as a ‘trope’. The paper uses the concept of Heterotopias to analyse the recurrence of spectacle spaces in the construction of Madurai, and the production of caste in contemporary films. In this pursuit, it interrogates the implications of such spatial discourses. Spectacle spaces: Production of caste in recent Tamil films To foreground the study of caste in Tamil films and to link it with the rise of ‘caste- gestapo’ networks that execute honour killings and murders as a reaction to ‘inter-caste love dramas’ in Tamil Nadu,1 let me narrate a political incident that occurred in Tamil Nadu – that of the formation of a socio-political movement against Dalit assertion in December 2012.

It was observed that Chevalior Sivaji film songs reflect the theoretical domain such as (i) equity and social justice and (ii) the practice of virtue in the society. In this research work attention has been made to conceptualize the ethical ideas and compare it with the ethical theories using a novel methodology wherein the ideas contained in the film song are compared with the ethical theory. Few songs with the uncompromising premise of patni (chastity of women) with the four important charateristics of women of Tamil culture i.e. acham, madam, nanam and payirpu that leads to the great concept of chastity practiced by exalting woman like Kannagi has also been dealt with. The ethical ideas that contain in the selection of songs were made out from the selected movies acted by Chevalier Shivaji giving preference to the songs that contain the above unique concept of ethics.

  • 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.

The first Field Post Office, then called Field Force Post Office, accompanied the Expeditionary Forces to Persia (now Iran) under the command of Major General Sir James Outram. An Indian naval squadron commanded by Commodore Young was also a part of this Force that arrived at Bushire on December 5, 1856 where the Persian Field Force Post Office functioned from December 12, 1856 to October 2, 1857. This Field Force Post Office’s use of postage stamps was the first instance of postage stamps used in Persia. The first stamps issued by Persia were actually in 1875 although stamps were also issued in 1868 but believed to have not been circulated to public, and again in 1870 for a short while and their use was ceased in 1871.

BOOTH University of Auckland TraditionalContent and NarrativeStruc- ture in the Hindi CommercialCinema Abstract The commercial Hindi cinema has been subjected to domestic and foreign criticism for its exceptionally formulaic and stereotypical feature productions. These productions, however, have their sources in the oral and written epics and the popular dramatic genres of traditional Indian culture. Content borrowed from the Ramayana, the Mahabharata, and other pan-Indian tales frequently enlarges and reinterprets the char- acters and plots of the commercial cinema. The disconcerting emotional melange pre- sented by Hindi films is consistent with aesthetic theories of emotional content found in Indian epic narrative. The stereotyping of characters and of interpersonal relationships reflects the influence of traditional Indian epic structure, while the growing frequency of self-reflexive humor in the medium suggests yet another connection between contempo- rary Hindi cinema and the historically powerful traditions of Indian drama and narra- tive.

  • Circulating Voices: the Gendered Beginnings of Playback
    Circulating Voices: The Gendered Beginnings of Playback * Amanda Weidman Introduction In November 1944, in his regular column entitled “This Month’s Star,” film magazine editor P. R. S. Gopal ended his brief feature on the singing actress N. C. Vasanthakokilam with a prediction. Praising Vasantha- gokilam’s classically trained singing voice and capable acting, he wrote that, “even though she hasn’t been given many songs, the ones she has sung are sweet. One may say that her name will rise very quickly. Because of her acting skill and good training, viewers soon will forget that her face is only so-so.” Accompanied by a photo of Vasanthakokilam seated on a bench in a casually draped sari, hands folded in a homely pose, the feature encapsulated a dominant value of these years: that being a film actor or actress meant being a singing star. The ability to sing was the first requirement for appearing onscreen; appearance and their acting skill were less important. The non-glamorous “off-screen” pose of this photo was designed to highlight Vasanthagokilam’s singing ability, rather than her physical allure (Pēcum Paṭam November 1944:18–19). But Gopal’s prediction did not come true. Not only did Vasantha- kokilam pass away from tuberculosis in 1951 at the age of 30, but even if she had lived, it is unlikely that her acting career would have continued much into the 1950s. Viewers did not forget about female beauty; indeed, even as the norm of singing actors and actresses persisted, actresses were increasingly discussed in terms of alaku (‘beauty’).
