  • Oscar-Winning 'Slumdog Millionaire:' a Boost for India's Global Image?
    ISAS Brief No. 98 – Date: 27 February 2009 469A Bukit Timah Road #07-01, Tower Block, Singapore 259770 Tel: 6516 6179 / 6516 4239 Fax: 6776 7505 / 6314 5447 Email: [email protected] Website: www.isas.nus.edu.sg Oscar-winning ‘Slumdog Millionaire’: A Boost for India’s Global Image? Bibek Debroy∗ Culture is difficult to define. This is more so in a large and heterogeneous country like India, where there is no common language and religion. There are sub-cultures within the country. Joseph Nye’s ‘soft power’ expression draws on a country’s cross-border cultural influences and is one enunciated with the American context in mind. Almost tautologically, soft power implies the existence of a relatively large country and the term is, therefore, now also being used for China and India. In the Indian case, most instances of practice of soft power are linked to language and literature (including Indians writing in English), music, dance, cuisine, fashion, entertainment and even sport, and there is no denying that this kind of cross-border influence has been increasing over time, with some trigger provided by the diaspora. The film and television industry’s influence is no less important. In the last few years, India has produced the largest number of feature films in the world, with 1,164 films produced in 2007. The United States came second with 453, Japan third with 407 and China fourth with 402. Ticket sales are higher for Bollywood than for Hollywood, though revenue figures are much higher for the latter. Indian film production is usually equated with Hindi-language Bollywood, often described as the largest film-producing centre in the world.

  • Slide 1: Title Producing Bollywood: Sustainability and the Impacts On
    Slide 1: Title Producing Bollywood: Sustainability and the impacts on Auckland’s cultural economy Introduction This paper examines the variety of ways event producers, as entrepreneurs; depend on relationships to create and maintain local and global networks that contribute to local and transnational cultural economies. Cultural economy in this context is considered as Pratt suggests: “ a set of socio‐economic relations that enable cultural activities” (2008, p. 49). Recently produced events have had a significant impact on the local cultural economy challenging the economic and cultural sustainability of Auckland’s Indian commercial event market. Some entrepreneurs are able to produce events that can be considered not only successful; normally measured by profitability and rave reviews, but also considered to be sustainable. Sustainability, in event management, results from a variable combination of economic feasibility, improved reputations for producers and/or artists, ongoing relationships among producers and others in the event industry, and production skill competency (Pernecky & Lück, 2013). I suggest that the continuous formal and informal processes, systems, structures, and relationships of cultural activities create production networks that contribute to the sustainability of local and global cultural economies. To set the scene I begin with a brief overviews of Auckland’s rapidly growing Indian population and the scope of commercial event produced. I will conclude with a case study that demonstrates dramatic changes in the sustainability of producing Bollywood star shows in Auckland. Slide 2: Migration The Background New Zealand’s 2013 census identified that the resident population had grown to 4.24 million and that ethnic diversity is on the rise in New Zealand, predominantly in Auckland.
