It focuses on the portrayal of the shifting faces of communitarian identity/politics by analyzing two digital versions of this historical event – one is Mehreen Jabbar's drama-film Ramchand Pakistani and the other is the adapted version of Razia Butt's novel Bano, broadcast by a private T.V Channel with the title of Dastaan. Based on the postmodernist shift from performance to performance, our argument foregrounds the digital representation of 1947 which offers new angles to view the subaltern story(ies) vis-à-vis the official history of nationalism by showing different characters who experience a fleeing sense of identity in their attempt to cope with the trauma of displacement and violence during 1947. In this article, the textual and digital versions of 1947 are read as cultural texts which embody the human and subjective experience and perceptions of ordinary human subjects from both sides of the divide, either during the historical event of Partition as sufferers or survivors or in current scenario in the wake of the politics of mistrust between Pakistan and India.

  • Will Chulbul's 'Swag' Override Memories of Thunder?
    Will Chulbul's 'swag' override memories of Thunder? Pepsi's new face and Dabangg star Salman Khan a.k.a Chulbul Pandey has been a face for rival cola brand Thums Up. We speak to experts Rohit Ohri, KV Sridhar, Darshana Bhalla and Manish Bhatt for their take on this interesting development. There was a ruffle in the advertising and marketing fraternity around a recent piece of news concerning Pepsi. The flagship beverage brand from PepsiCo has just announced its association with Bollywood superstar and former Thums Up face Salman Khan. Brand faces change over time depending on objectives, but Pepsi's partnership with the Dabangg star flags two key points – the endorser's former association with rival cola brand Thums Up and Pepsi's recent positioning as a youth facing brand, placing itself alongside college students and within campuses. Why did Thums Up choose Salman Khan back in the day? This high octane cola brand from Coca Cola has always worn macho faces, including the likes of Suniel Shetty, Akshay Kumar, Chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu and more recently Ranveer Singh. All the film stars have had action packed roles in their parallel presence on the silver screen and this was extended to the ad communications. After all, it had to be about the 'Thunder'. Coca-Cola India signed Salman Khan for Thums Up in 2012. The company had then tied up with Khan's movie Dabangg 2 which released on December 21 the same year. The action movie features Khan as Chulbul Pandey, a witty but strong-handed police officer.
