    Retrospective analysis of plagiaristic practices within a cinematic industry in india – a tip in the ocean of icebergs Item Type Article Authors Sivasubramaniam, Shiva D; Paneerselvam, Umamaheswaran; Ramachandran, Sharavan Citation Umamaheswaran, P., Ramachandran, S. and Sivasubramaniam, S.D., (2020).

Sivasubramaniam3 # The Author(s) 2020 Abstract Music plagiarism is defined as using tune, or melody that would closely imitate with another author’s music without proper attributions. It may occur either by stealing a musical idea (a melody or motif) or sampling (a portion of one sound, or tune is copied into a different song). Unlike the traditional music, the Indian cinematic music is extremely popular amongst the public. Since the expectations of the public for songs that are enjoyable are high, many music directors are seeking elsewhere to “borrow” tunes. Whilst a vast majority of Indian cinemagoers may not have noticed these plagiarised tunes, some journalists and vigilant music lovers have noticed these activities. This study has taken the initiative to investigate the extent of plagiaristic activities within one Indian cinematic music industry.

IPtheory Volume 5: Issue 1 Copyright and Cross-Cultural Borrowing: Indo-Western Musical Encounters Arpan Banerjee* INTRODUCTION In a denunciatory book on India, the British historian James Mill (father of John Stuart Mill) labeled the country’s people “mendacious,” its art and sculpture “disgusting,” its literature “monstrous,” its cuisine “simple and common,” and its music “unpleasing.”1 Mill — who had never actually visited India — attacked the admiring descriptions of Indian civilization by Western indologists, notably Sir William Jones.2 While Mill’s book might have shaped the views of many in the West towards India (for example, the book was compulsory reading for British officials posted in India3), scholars like Jones equally influenced an alternative discourse, epitomized by Mark Twain’s gushing description of India in his travelogues.4 Postcolonial scholars, while criticizing Mill and similar colonial ideologues, have also been skeptical of romanticized depictions of Indian culture.

  • Brown Skin, White Dreams: Pigmentocracy in India Komal Kaur
    Brown Skin, White Dreams: Pigmentocracy in India Komal Kaur Dhillon Dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of: Doctor of Philosophy in Alliance for Social, Political, Ethical, and Cultural Thought Brett L. Shadle (Chair) Madhavi M. Murty Katrina M. Powell Peter L. Schmitthenner April 24, 2015 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: pigmentocracy, colonialism, caste, color, bleaching cream, Indian culture, Orientalism, racism, Indian films, skin bleaching advertisements, colorism Copyright 2015 Brown Skin, White Dreams: Pigmentocracy in India Komal Kaur Dhillon ABSTRACT Pigmentocracy or colorism refers to the practice of intraracial groups applying a preferential valuation to lighter skin, resulting in a system of contextual privileges and discriminations based on skin color. In India, this phenomenon is informed by numerous factors, including colonialism, the caste system, media, cultural practices, and patriarchy. The fundamental forces contributing to pigmentocracy are explored independently as well as in conjunction with each other in order to elucidate the multifaceted aspects of social organization in India, specifically, the larger effects of imperialism, capitalism, globalization, racism, and sexism as they relate to colorist ideology. Everyday practices and attitudes informed by caste, class, religion, language, region, and customs are also examined in relation to pigmentocracy. Although there are numerous mechanisms that contribute to the complexity of examining pigmentocracy, larger patterns also prevail that allow for a comprehensive understanding of how pigmentocratic notions influence and are influenced by multiple background and demographic conditions. Benefits for those who are on the lighter end of the skin color spectrum are recognized and leveraged in accordance with the systemic logic of being naturally superior.
