  • Enchantment of the Mind Preface
    PREFACE 1 March 2004 marked the tenth anniversary of the death of Manmohan Desai. A fall from the terrace of his Khetwadi home brought the 57-year old filmmaker’s life to an end in the spring of 1994. The suspected suicide came as a shock both to those nearest to him and to the film world as a whole, as testified in countless articles and tributes in the Indian and international press in the month following his death. The articles that appeared spanned the gamut of reactions: praise for Desai as a man and as a filmmaker, heartfelt remembrances from those who had worked with him, indignation and disbelief over the circumstances of his death, and speculation over possible motives for suicide— depression over severe backaches being most frequently offered as an explanation. At that time, I could not help feeling a personal sadness over his death. I had, after all, spent the better part of four years studying Manmohan Desai’s work before completing an initial version of this book in 1987. It was, therefore, consoling to have immediate and direct evidence of Manmohan Desai’s work living on beyond his death, as happened one day in 1994 when I walked into an Indian carry-out restaurant in Paris and saw a colorful dance scene from Dharam-Veer playing on the conspicuously placed VCR. Those waiting in line stood transfixed before the screen, their faces radiating joy. Curious to know if Desai’s work had crossed the generations, I asked a young man in his twenties if he knew who had directed the film.

  • Karen Occasional Paper.Pmd
    Whose Mother (land)?: Visualising and Theorising National Identity - Karen Gabriel - Introduction Using established and familiar iconographic representations of the nation, this paper will make two intertwined arguments. The first of these is that by and large, narrations of the nation have a melodramatic structure. The second is that, the iconic and mythogenic figuring of the nation as Mother India/Bharat Mata, contrary to enduring assumptions about it, is, strictly speaking, not a ‘national’ one at all. To do the above, the paper will critically review the relations between a) melodrama, gender, the organisation of sexuality, the family and the nation; b) The principle of maternality, the maternal body and nation. c) It will examine the ways in which central symbols of the national iconography of Mother India/ Bharat Mata have been cognised and reworked Some art instances and modern cinematic narrativizations and representations of the nation in mainstream Bombay cinema will be used to exemplify the precise nature of the relations set out above and the arguments being made. The argument will rest in the main on the work of cinema, since cinema remains a key representational site at which the mechanics of melodrama as these pertain to the nation-state are clearly deployed and visibilised. This specific dynamic was inevitable, in manner of speaking, given Bombay cinema’s historical involvement with nationalism, the nationalist movement and ideas of nation: this powerful cultural apparatus early on officially declared its commitment to promoting nation-building, national integration and patriotism. In that sense the medium always retained a sharp awareness of the historicity and the material bases of iconography and national discourse.

  • 100 Essential Indian Films, by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Datta
    Alphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media no. 21, 2021, pp. 239–243 DOI: https://doi.org/10.33178/alpha.21.21 100 Essential Indian Films, by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Datta. Rowman & Littlefield, 2019, 283 pp. Darshana Chakrabarty Among the many film industries of South Asia, the Indian film industry is the most prolific, specifically Hindi language film, more commonly known as Bollywood, which produces almost four hundred films annually. Bollywood films dominate the national market. These films have also been exported successfully to parts of the Middle East, Africa, and the Asiatic regions of the former Soviet Union, as well as to Canada, Australia, the UK, and the US. The success of these films abroad is largely down to the presence of Indian communities living in these regions; as the conventional melodramatic plot structures, dance numbers and musicals tend to deter Western audiences. Within India and abroad “the traditional division between India’s popular cinema and its ‘art’ or ‘parallel’ cinema, modelled after India's most prestigious film-director Satyajit Ray, often produced the uncritical assumption that Indian films are either ‘Ray or rubbish’” (Chaudhuri 137). Recently, Indian film criticism has begun focusing on popular Indian cinema, assessing the multi-discursive elements of the cinematic creations. Bollywood “gained prominence within academia due to its growing popularity and unique manner of glorifying Indian familial values” (Sinha 3). From a history and origin of Indian motion pictures to selecting films that best represent the diversity, integrity and heritage of the nation, 100 Essential Indian Films by Rohit K. Dasgupta and Sangeeta Dutta is a concise book on Indian cinema for connoisseurs and for film enthusiasts taking an interest in India’s classic and contemporary cinema.

This document is only reflective of the first two classes and course requirements in terms of work load and grading policy and other class policies. ! Spring 2020 gautami shah (she/her/hers) Topic Title: Bollywood: Shaker, Maker or Breaker of Society? FLAG: This course carries the Global Cultures Flag. Course Description: This course explores the dual role of Bollywood in society, viz., that as an agent of social change on the one hand, and as a mirror of social reality on the other. By examining the representations of South Asian society in Bollywood over the years, as well as the influence of Bollywood cinema on society at various points in South Asian history, this course begs us to critically reevaluate the role of cinema and popular culture as mere entertainment in society. Topics explored will include the relationship between Hindi cinema and the concept of “nation”; notions and representations of “self” and “other”Hindi cinema and representations, roles and perceptions of gender; Hindi cinema and the diaspora; notions of tradition and modernity; centers and margins of society; the role of caste, religion and class in shaping HIndi cinema and vice-versa. Students who have had no prior experience with South Asian literature and cinema will get an exposure to a new world-view. Students who have already been exposed to South Asian literature and cinema will find and articulate new ways of approaching and interpreting the material.

ISBN 978-0-674-50448-6 (hardcover) Introduction OUTRIGHT HOKUM HE YEAR 1977 was a tumultuous one in India. The state of emer­ T gency that Prime Minister Indira Gandhi had declared in 1975, allowing her to rule by decree, at last came to an end. During those twenty-one months of autocratic rule, the government's attempts to en­ force order led to many excesses: political opponents were imprisoned, the press was censored, and civil liberties were curtailed. When Mrs. Gandhi finallycalled for elections, the political opposition joined forcesto mount a campaign on the theme of "democracy versus dictatorship." The elec­ tions delivered Mrs. Gandhi a resounding loss and brought in the first non-Congress Party government since Independence. The mood of the times was mixed. There was a renewed feeling of hope, but also pent-up frustration and resentment. Going to the movies gave the nation a way to escape from this trou­ bled reality.

  • Le Rôle Du Cinéma Indien Dans La Promotion D’Un « Espace Sécularisé »
    LE RÔLE DU CINÉMA INDIEN DANS LA PROMOTION D’UN « ESPACE SÉCULARISÉ » Jitka de Préval Teaching history through films gives an excellent opportunity to help the students to relativize [sic] their notion of history. (Roberge 134) Chez les peuples ex-colonisés, particulièrement ceux qui n’ont pas de tradition historique écrite, la connaissance historique se trouve plus encore qu’ailleurs sous la dépendance des media, même s’il survit une forte tradition orale. (Ferro 217) Dans une Inde où l’accès à l’éducation est difficile, dans cette grande démocratie en proie à des conflits identitaires religieux, culturels, linguistiques et ethniques, pour maintenir ensemble la mosaïque des communautés que compose la nation indienne, il faut un espace commun, une identité et une culture commune, un sentiment d’appartenance à une même nation. Le cinéma populaire, animé par le souci de toucher une population hétérogène à multiples visages, avec un fort pourcentage d’illettrisme, contribue à la construction d’une identité nationale en offrant un espace culturel commun où tous peuvent coexister harmonieusement et où tous peuvent se reconnaître. La nation indienne représentée par le cinéma apparaît comme un artefact culturel, une « imperso-nation. » (Chakravarty 4) Monopolisant pendant une longue période l’espace du divertissement populaire, le cinéma indien s’impose naturellement comme un important promoteur d’une certaine idée du sécularisme1 et de la coexistence pacifique. Le choix d’appuyer nos réflexions sur un corpus de deux fictions historiques Gaddar : Ek Prem Katha (A. Sharma, 2001) et Pinjar (Ch. P. Dwivedi, 2003) est délibéré. Les fictions, tout 1 Nous préconisons d’utiliser l’anglicisme « sécularisme » pour ne pas traduire le terme anglais « secularism » par « laïcité » même si selon Gaborieu « laïc » et « laïcité » sont les termes les moins mauvais pour traduire l’anglo-indien « secular » et « secularity.

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.
