  • 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.

  • War on Terror Partnership and Growing/Mounting/Increasing
    Journal of Indian Studies Vol. 5, No. 1, January – June, 2019, pp. 119 – 130 Pakistan in the Bollywood Movies: A Discourse Analysis Nauman Sial International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan. Yasar Arafat International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan. Abid Zafar International Islamic University, Islamabad, Pakistan. ABSTRACT Pakistan and India had been the rival nations after the partition of Sub-continent in 1947. Both countries have fought many wars against each other including the 1948 Kashmir war, 1965 war, 1971 war and the Kargil war in 1999. But yet the relations remain on the conflicting peak. Indian government has always used the Hindi language cinema i.e. Bollywood as their main weapon. This research is being carried out to analyze the image of Pakistan that is being presented in the Bollywood Movies after the attacks on the Indian city Mumbai on November 26, 2008. Also, how the image of Pakistanis, the military forces/intelligence agencies and the religious groups of Pakistan are being shown in the Bollywood movies. Three films have been selected in this research which portrayed the image of Pakistan. Discourse analysis has been used as a research design for this study. The dialogues of all the movies have been analysed and interpreted which show that movies have portrayed a negative image of Pakistan, its people and also its military/intelligence agencies and religious groups. The five filters of propaganda model by Herman and Chomsky have also been observed and proved in this research work. Key Words: Film, Propaganda, Bollywood, A Propaganda Model, Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), Research and Analysis Wing (RAW) Introduction Film or movie is an art that has borrowed itself from the other arts i.e.

  • The Partition of India and Pakistan in the Novels of Selected Writers in South Asian Countries
    International Journal of Linguistics, Literature and Culture (Linqua- IJLLC) August 2014 edition Vol.1 No.1 THE PARTITION OF INDIA AND PAKISTAN IN THE NOVELS OF SELECTED WRITERS IN SOUTH ASIAN COUNTRIES G.Sankar Assistant Professor Department of English Vel Tech Dr.RR& Dr.SR Technical University Chennai-600062 India Abstract The partition of India and the associated bloody riots inspired many creative minds in India and Pakistan to create literary/cinematic depictions of this event.[1] While some creations depicted the massacres during the refugee migration, others concentrated on the aftermath of the partition in terms of difficulties faced by the refugees in both side of the border. Even now, more than 60 years after the partition, works of fiction and films are made that relate to the events of partition.Literature describing the human cost of independence and partition comprises Khushwant Singh's Train to Pakistan (1956), several short stories such as Toba Tek Singh (1955) by Saadat Hassan Manto, Urdu poems such as Subh-e-Azadi (Freedom’s Dawn, 1947) by Faiz Ahmad Faiz, Bhisham Sahni's Tamas (1974), Manohar Malgonkar's A Bend in the Ganges (1965), and Bapsi Sidhwa's Ice-Candy Man (1988), among others.[2][3] Salman Rushdie's novel Midnight's Children (1980), which won the Booker Prize and the Booker of Bookers, weaved its narrative based on the children born with magical abilities on midnight of 14 August 1947.[3] Freedom at Midnight (1975) is a non-fiction work by Larry Collinsand Dominique Lapierre that chronicled the events surrounding the first Independence Day celebrations in 1947.

CINEMATIC REPRESENTATIONS OF PARTITION OF INDIA Dr. Manoj Sharma Assistant Professor, Modern Indian History, Kirori Mal College, University of Delhi, Delhi-110007 – India [email protected] ________________________________________________________________________ Abstract The partition of India in August 1947 marks a watershed in the modern Indian history. The creation of two nations, India and Pakistan, was not only a geographical division but also widened the chasm in the hearts of the people. The objective of the paper is to study the cinematic representations of the experiences associated with the partition of India. The cinematic portrayal of fear generated by the partition violence and the terror accompanying it will also be examined. Films dealing with partition have common themes of displacement of thousands of masses from their homelands, being called refugees in their own homeland and their struggle for survival in refugee colonies. They showcase the trauma of fear, violence, personal pain, loss and uprooting from native place.
