    Indian entertainment and media outlook 2010 2 Indian entertainment and media outlook 2010 Message To our clients and friends both in and beyond the entertainment and media industry : Welcome to the 2010 edition of PricewaterhouseCoopers’ Indian Entertainment and Media (E&M) Outlook, covering the forecast period of 2010–2014. Our forecasts and analysis for this edition focus on eight major E&M industry segments and one emerging segment. Each segment details out the key trends observed and challenges faced apart from providing the prospects for the segment. In the industry overview section, we have highlighted the key theme observed during 2009 and what we perceive as future trends in the coming years. We have a chapter on the tax and regulatory impact on the various E&M segments and for the very first time we have included a chapter on how technology can be leveraged in the E&M industry. In 2009, the economy severely impacted the world, translating into steep declines in advertisement as well as consumer spending. India though impacted, did manage to show growth with increased consumer spending as well as innovative action on the part of the industry. Against this backdrop, across the world, except certain markets, speed of digital spending increased due to changing consumer behavior as well as technology available to deliver the same. In India, while the spend on digital media is likely to grow, it is unlikely that it will dominate in the forecast period. This is largely due to the relative unavailability as well as unaffordability of the broadband and mobile infrastructure.

  • Gurinder Chadha's Bhaji on the Beach
    Triangulating Birmingham, Blackpool, Bombay: Gurinder Chadha’s Bhaji on the Beach Ana Cristina Mendes ULICES – University of Lisbon Centre for English Studies ISSN: 0873-0628 ANGLO SAXONICA SER. III N. 1 2010 Triangulating Birmingham, Blackpool, Bombay: Gurinder Chadha’s Bhaji on the Beach haji on the Beach is a 1994 road film (Tasker 165), directed by Gurinder Chadha, centered on female characters who struggle in Bconflicts of gender, ethnicity and generational differences. On the road are a group of British Asian women from Birmingham headed for Blackpool on a journey of self-discovery away from their routine lives. The day-trippers span three generations: Asha, a middle-aged newsagent with a university degree, who feels neglected by her husband and children, and frustrated by unfulfilled desires; Pushpa, an elderly Indian housewife and grocer; Rekha, a glamorous visitor from Bombay who has time to spare during her husband’s business trips to London; Bina, a shop assistant from Marks and Spencer; Ginder, a young mother who wants out of an unhappy marriage and an abusive husband; Hashida, a student about to start medical school, who has discovered she is pregnant by her boyfriend, an Afro-Caribbean British art student; Ladhu and Madhu, two teenagers who have fully embraced western culture and are just out for fun with white English boys (given that, as they point out, Indian lads are keen on white girls); and Simi, the politically-committed organiser of the tour, who firmly believes in sisterhood and female solidarity. Appropriating themselves of the public space of the English seaside resort, each of these women reaches some sort of crossroads.

  • Representations of Young Asian Women
    http://www.mediaculture-online.de Autorin: Manju Nair. Titel: Culture bending? – representations of young Asian women. Quelle: http://www.itpmag.demon.co.uk/Downloads/BendIt.pdf, Riddlesden, Keighley 2005,. P. 1-3. Verlag: itp (in the picture). Media Education Magazine. Published with kind permission of the publisher. Manju Nair Culture bending? – representations of young Asian women The decision to study Bend It Like Beckham (UK 2002) and Anita and Me (2002) was made following a class discussion about immigrant communities in our part of East London. GCSE Media students were ignorant of the facts behind their own cultural inheritance. We found that students were quite confused over the terms ‘culture’,’religion’ and ‘traditions.’ So this is where we began the study. Being Asian myself, I had a keen interest in studying and teaching texts which went some way towards representing (both negatively and positively) the Asian diaspora in film. Up to that point we had not studied any such texts which dealt with life as an immigrant/part of an ethnic minority in the UK and the release of these films was well timed. My final reason was the presence of a few Asian students in the class along with the school’s 40% ethnic minority mix. Representation and mediation I tried to clarify definitions of religious beliefs, cultural values and traditions. I also needed to explain the difference between Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims as well as Indians and Pakistanis and to clear up confusion about Urdu and Punjabi as distinct languages. I think 1 http://www.mediaculture-online.de all of these were important as background information for the ‘study’ of the film and not merely appreciation of its humour and/or content.

Hence diasporic Punjabi women face containment and oppression in the domestic space which contrasts with the culture of the adopted land and creates zones of conflict, assimilation and negotiations and they are forced to look anew at their cultural norms, identities and values. The negotiations of the hyphenated identities caught between the two worlds often leads to psychological and emotional problems both in the first and second generation women. The present paper deliberates on how women of different generations in the immigrant culture construct and deconstruct their identities and negotiate their space within the Patriarchal Punjabi culture. It looks into the Punjabi Woman’s (dis)location within English culture, in the movie Bhaji on the Beach directed by Gurinder Chadha and analyzes and critically evaluates the dynamics within the Indian Community abroad.

  • Violence During Partition of India in the Movie Viceroy's House
    Journal of Interdisciplinary Cycle Research ISSN NO: 0022-1945 Violence During Partition of India in the movie Viceroy’s House Minakshi Chauhan Research Scholar Deptt. Of English Baba Mastnath University, Rohtak Supervisor: Dr. Nazar Mohammed Abstract: Viceroy’s House is based on the true story of India‘s transition to independence in 1947. Lord Mountbatten (Hugh Bonneville) is tasked with the role of overseeing this monumental event and is sent to India as the last Viceroy. He‘s accompanied by his wife, Lady Edwina Mountbatten, and daughter Pamela.The British have ruled India for 300 years, and during that time India has been integrated into one large country. There is still, however, much division among the Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs. Jawaharlal Nehru, leader of the Congress Party, is determined that India should remain as one country but Muhammad Ali Jinnah , a Muslim leader, wants a separate country for his people. Mountbatten comes to the conclusion that partitioning the country is the only solution. But he doesn‘t realise that Prime Minister Churchill and the previous Viceroy have already drawn up this very plan.Meanwhile, in the servant quarters lies the emotional dimension of the film, as an old love story between a Hindu man and a Muslim woman, Jeet Kumar (Manish Dayal) and Alia (Huma Qureshi), rekindles. Key Words: Violence, Riots, Intensifying, Sub-continent, Horrifying, Territory, Plan etc. The riots erupting across India, the British decide to accelerate the independence process. Mountbatten is intent upon a one-state solution, but with intensifying violence between Muslims and Hindus he reluctantly accepts the Partition of India.

  • Bend It Like Beckham
    Bend It Like Beckham Dir. Gurinder Chadha, UK/Germany 2002, Certificate 12A Introduction Bend It Like Beckham was one of the surprise hits of 2002, making over £11,000,000 at the UK Box Office and hitting a chord with a range of audiences at cinemas. A vibrant and colourful British comedy about a young girl from a Sikh family who desperately wants to play football against the wishes of her traditional parents, the film can be seen to follow the path of other recent British-Asian films such as Bhaji on the Beach, Anita and Me and East Is East in its examination of culture clashes and family traditions. Bend It Like Beckham takes these themes and adds extra ingredients to the dish – football, Shakespearean confusions over identity and sexuality, in-jokes about both British pop culture and the Sikh way of life, and a music soundtrack mixing a range of East/West sounds and musical styles. It is also useful to look at Bend It Like Beckham within a wider context of the British Asian experience in popular culture and media, such as portrayal of Asian culture on television including Ali G, Goodness Gracious Me, families in soaps such as Coronation Street and EastEnders – even the new Walkers Crisps advert has Gary Lineker in a mini-Bollywood musical - and the Asian language, music and fashion that has now flowed into the mainstream. © Film Education 2003 1 Film Synopsis Jesminder (known as Jess) is a Sikh teenager living in Hounslow, who loves to play football. Her parents disapprove, wanting her to settle down, get a job as a lawyer and marry a nice Indian boy.

  • Bend It Like Beckham (2002)
    Bend It Like Beckham Movie Info (2002) An independent-minded young woman discovers the joys of football, much to her family's chagrin, in this upbeat British comedy drama. Jess Bhamra (Parminder Nagra) is an 18-year-old growing up in West London, where her family has taken every effort to stay in touch with its Indian heritage. Jess' father and mother (Anupam Kher and Shaheen Khan) are after their daughter to go to law school, learn to cook a traditional Indian dinner, and settle down with a nice Indian boy -- the latter of which is high on the agenda of her older sister Pinky (Archie Panjabi), who is soon to wed her longtime beau Teetu (Kulvinder Ghir). However, her family is unaware that Jess has a secret passion -- football (or soccer, as it's known in North America). While Jess' enthusiasm for football star David Beckham is obvious, given the fact his photos cover the walls of her room, her parents don't know that in her spare time she likes to play a friendly game in the park with some of the boys in the neighborhood. One day, while Jess and her pals kick the ball around, she meets Jules (Keira Knightley), who is quite impressed with Jess' skills. Jules plays with a local semi-pro women's football British release poster (Wikipedia) team, the Hounslow Harriers, and she thinks Jess has TOMATOMETER what it takes to make the team. Jess knows that her All Critics parents would never approve of their daughter playing football, so she doesn't tell them, and starts spinning an increasingly complex series of lies as she tries to keep 85 up a double life as a student and a footballer.

  • Gurinder Chadha in Conversation Presented by the Runnymede Trust in Partnership with the BFI
    Gurinder Chadha In Conversation Presented by the Runnymede Trust in partnership with the BFI Monday, 15 December 2008 NFT1 at the BFI Southbank, London SE1 8XT 6:30pm followed by a reception Provisional Programme 18.30 Welcome Dr Samir Shah OBE, Chairman, Runnymede Trust 18.35 Gurinder Chadha In Conversation moderated by Shami Chakrabarti, Director, Liberty and BFI Board of Governors 19.15 Questions from the floor 20.00 Reception 21.30 Close of evening Gurinder Chadha Gurinder Chadha was born in Kenya and came to Britain with her parents in 1961. She grew up in Southall, London and studied at the University of East Anglia. After working as a broadcast journalist, her first directorial venture was I'm British But... , a documentary made for Channel 4 and the BFI in 1989. The film uses the phenomenon of bhangra music to explore issues of identity and belonging among young British-born Asians. In 1990 Chadha made her first dramatic short film, Nice Arrangement , concerning a British-Asian family on the morning of their daughter's wedding. This was followed by another documentary, Acting Our Age (1991), in which elderly Asians living in Southall recount their experiences of living in Britain. These various concerns came together in Chadha 's first feature film, the comedy-drama Bhaji on the Beach (1993). The film centres on the experiences of a group of Asian women from three generations on a day trip to Blackpool. As Chadha has said, in the film "You have tradition on the one side and modernity on the other, Indianness on the one side, Englishness on the other, cultural specificity and universality - but in fact there is a scale between each of these polarities and the film moves freely between them." After a two-part drama for the BBC , Rich Deceiver (1995), and a number of television documentaries, Chadha went to Los Angeles to make her next feature film What's Cooking? (2000), a series of overlapping stories involving four families (Hispanic, Vietnamese, African-American, and Jewish), all preparing for Thanksgiving dinner.
