The life style of the 21st century people is very different; their attitude and culture have changed .This change of viewpoint is visible in every field of life including Film and television. Nowadays there are several realty shows capturing the attention of the people. The electronic media influence the mind of people. Different television programs target different categories of people .For example the cartoon programs target kids; the realty shows target youth. The points of view of the directors and audience are changing in the modern era. In earlier time, women had only a decorative role in the films. Their representation was merely for satisfying the needs of men. The roles of women were always under the norms and rules of the patriarchal society. They were most often presented on the screen as sexual objects .Here women were abused twice, first by the male character in the film and second, by the spectators. But now the scenario is different. The viewpoint of the directors as well as the audience has drastically changed .In this era the directors are courageous enough to make films with women as central characters.

This is a qualitative research in which Chetan Bhagat’s novel ‘Five Point Someone’ and ‘2 States’have been take up by Bollywood film makers to make movies ‘3 Idiots’ and ‘2 States’ respectively.

Professor, College of Arts, Bhigwan, Tal. Indapur, Dist. Pune. ABSTRACT: Colonialism has a great effect on Indian literature. The present paper focuses on the effect of colonialism on Indian English literature. Amitav Ghosh, Salman Rushdie, R.K. Narayan, Anita Desai, Rohinton Mistry, Arundhati Roy, Kiran Desai and many other novelists and writers have written about their postcolonial experiences. Amitav Ghosh is one of the most widely known and widely read Indian writers who write from a postcolonial consciousness. Amitav Ghosh reveals areas of colonial oppression that were not much highlighted earlier. The images of politically and socially changing India, reflects in his work. His novels are the best examples of post-colonial literature. KEYWORDS : Post-colonial, literature, colonialism, racism, changing image of India. INTRODUCTION Post Colonial is a familiar term used for the literature. The term post-colonial is defined differently by different critics. According to the Oxford Dictionary, Post-colonial means, “occurring or existing after the end of colonial rule.” M.H Abrams defines, “Post-colonialism as the critical analysis of the history, culture, literature.” By these definitions, post colonialism is a period of time after colonialism, and postcolonial literature is normally categorized by its opponent to the colonial. However, some critics have argued that any literature that expresses an opposition to colonialism, even if it is created during a colonial period, may be coined as postcolonial.

  • Indian English Novel After 1980: Encompassing the New Generation
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 Vol 8, Issue 1, 2021 INDIAN ENGLISH NOVEL AFTER 1980: ENCOMPASSING THE NEW GENERATION Arnab Roy Research Scholar National Institute of Technology, Durgapur Email: [email protected] Abstract: Indian English Literature refers to authors' body of work in India whose native or mother tongues might be one of India's several languages. It is also related to the work of Indian Diaspora members. It is also named Indo-Anglian literature. As a genre, this development is part of the larger spectrum of postcolonial literature. This paper discusses about Indian English novels after 1980. 1. Introduction This article attempts to consolidate Indian English Literature after 1980. There are a variety of books by literary artists such as SrinivasaIyengar, C.D. Narasimmaiya, M. K. Naik etc. that describe the beginning and development up to 1980. But the timely collection is not enough to date and this report is useful for a briefing on contemporary literary pedalling in around three-and-a-half decades. Apart from the deficiency of the correctly written root of the works consulted by Wikipedia, this kind of history is regularly obligatory. In India, post-colonial pressures played a critical and special position rather than post-war circumstances. It is true that an Indian genre called English writing has flourished unlimitedly and immensely and continues to thrive only during that time, i.e. after 1980. This paper is a study of Post- modern Indian English Novel, highlighting its history, themes adopted, andother aspects. 2. Historical past English isn't a foreign tongue to us.

    P: ISSN NO.: 2394-0344 RNI No.UPBIL/2016/67980 VOL-4* ISSUE-1* (Part-2) April- 2019 E: ISSN NO.: 2455-0817 Remarking An Analisation A Critical Review of Chetan Bhagat as a Bestseller Author Abstract Literature talks about fiction, imagination and reality altogether and provides an opportunity to examine things in a critical aspect. The modern novels capture the realities of contemporary life, both the pleasant and the unpleasant, with or without morals and ideological considerations. Chetan‟s works have touched millions of hearts.The objective of this research paper is to focus upon the features behind Chetan Bhagat as a bestseller author in 21st century. Few more bestseller authors emerged as his contemporaries like Preeti Shenoy, Durjoy Dutta, RavindraSingh and Amish Tripathy etc. Chetan Bhagat has merged highbrow and lowbrow fiction into one, which is now approved as a bestseller genre in Indian English literature. In his novels, Bhagat represents problems and their solutions through his characters. He could change the definition of a bestseller writer. Before Chetan Bhagat, five thousand copies were in the category of bestselling but when first novel Usha Sawhney of Bhagat came millions of copies were sold.
