  • Coalition Between Politics & Entertainment in Hindi Films: A
    Journal of Education & Social Policy Vol. 1 No. 1; June 2014 Coalition between Politics & Entertainment in Hindi Films: A Discourse Analysis Dr. C. M. Vinaya Kumar Assistant Professor & Head Department of Journalism and Mass Communication Krishna University Machilipatnam-521 001 91-9985085530 Romesh Chaturvedi Sr. Lecturer Amity School of Communication Amity University, Lucknow Campus Uttar Pradesh, 91-9721964685 India Shruti Mehrotra Sr. Lecturer Amity School of Communication Amity University, Lucknow Campus Uttar Pradesh, India 91-9451177264 Abstract The study attempts to explore dynamics of political discourse as reflected in Hindi films. Political messages in most Hindi films are concealed within entertainment. Films use thrilling & entertaining plots mixed with political content in order to convey their messages to the public. Films not only reflect reality but also construct the political ideology. The public is generally unaware of the extent to which they are being influenced, managed and conditioned by the political discourses in Hindi films. This study attempts to conduct the discourse analysis on the Hindi film “Chakravyuh” to find how politics and entertainment are merged together to influence public opinion. The film is based on the dark, largely-unexposed world of the Naxalites fighting for their land and dignity. Discourse analysis of the film will help in exploring how an entertaining film can carry a meaningful message. For over 40 years in India, since the emergence of the Naxalite rebellion, cinema has drawn inspiration from the rupture caused by this iconic movement in Indian political history. Hindi films seem to have woken up to Naxalism, or Maoism, as it is more commonly known today.

  • To Get the File
    The Indian Emergency 231 THE INDIAN EMERGENCY 9 Aesthetics of State Control A confirmed plagiarist speaks of some of the FFC’s significant produc- tions as third-rate copies of third-rate foreign films. A globe-trotting socialite whose sole claim to be a critic is her access to people and places (and who ecstacizes over Manoj Kumar’s Shor) aids the big sharks by her learned associations. A self-confessed amateur, applau- ded for his bold themes, speaks of films as ‘formal exercises’ when they are not in his own blundering idiom. Others disguise their con- cern for financial return (on both ‘public’ and ‘private’ money!) in terms of mass communication. Yet another old hand at bringing humanism to the box office in outrageous costumes advises the gov- ernment to nationalize cinema before it finances films which make an attempt at speaking a radical language. Utopian ideas always subvert their own declared purpose. Even in the unlikely event of nationalization, given the honesty of our bureaucrats and the social- ism of our system, one can visualize what new monsters will emerge. Some of these suggestions and comments may, indeed, be well inten- tioned, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to sift out the cinema’s enemies from its friends. – Kumar Shahani (1974) 1 Most of these stories featured the then Information and Broadcasting Minister, Vidya Charan Shukla.

After the film was ready for release, PW 1, Amrit Nahata, applied for certification of the film on the 19th of April 1975 before the Board.
