    Journal of Religion & Film Volume 24 Issue 2 October 2020 Article 4 October 2020 Consuming Bollywood Anjali Gera Roy IIT Kharagpur, [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf Part of the Film and Media Studies Commons, and the Hindu Studies Commons Recommended Citation Gera Roy, Anjali (2020) "Consuming Bollywood," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 24 : Iss. 2 , Article 4. DOI: 10.32873/uno.dc.jrf.24.2.004 Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol24/iss2/4 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Consuming Bollywood Abstract Hindi popular cinema, marked with sartorial, visual and material excess, has paradoxically portrayed acquisition of wealth or unregulated consumption as inimical to the Chaturvarga philosophy, or the idea that an individual should seek four goods – Artha (wealth), Kama (pleasure), Dharma (duty) and Moksha (renunciation) - in moderation in order to lead a balanced life. While its visual imagery is largely oriented towards Artha or pleasure, Dharma, in its meaning as duty, has been the prime motivation of Hindi or Bombay cinema’s characters and structures the cinematic conflict and action. However, Hindi cinema appears to have undergone a phase-shift in the new millennium in its new Bollywood avatar in which consumerist pleasure is not viewed as incompatible with altruism, or even ethical values. New millennium Bollywood cinema articulates a new esthetic of pleasure that is inscribed on the eating, drinking, singing, dancing, loving body that appears to be attuned to global consumerism.
