  • Chandrachur Singh Was Working Actively in films and Was Considered to Be an out of the I Ordinary and Outstanding Mainstream Actor of Bollywood
    July 26, 2020 Vineet Raina Dr. Blossom Kochhar Monsoon Tips & Tricks Travel Budapest - The City Of Palinka And Ruin Bars editor’s letter Saroj Khan: A Brilliance & Exceptional choreographer the starting week of this month, At Bollywood lost its legendary ace choreographer Saroj Khan due to a Rituparna Sengupta Basu cardiac arrest at the age of 71. Any expression is less to describe our darling ‘Masterji’ who not only pioneered the exact meaning of the word ‘good choreographer’ but every dancer like me also surely fall in love with her most remarkable dance moves. Saroj Khan was an inspiration to many including myself. Masterji started her career in this industry as a child artist in the 1950s. At the age of 10, she joined a dance troupe. She had given us numerous dance moves and I have been blessed to have got the chance to work with her in some dance projects. I had every pleasure to share that her every movement looks as easy as pie as anyone can dance. She was one of the most caring, kind-hearted, and loving personas. Her journey as a child actor, dancer, and choreographer is incredible and unbelievable enough. She began to learn dancing and took training under another remarkable dance guru B Sohanlal. She got her first break as an individual choreographer in ‘Geeta Mera Naam' (1974) and became famous later with the song ‘Hawa Hawai’ from “Mr. India" (1987). Her collaboration with Madhuri Dixit Nene and late Sridevi will always be remembered. Over the years she redefined Bollywood’s choreography, she was so precise about the expression in the dance moves.

    "Light Your Cigarette with My Heart's Fire, My Love": Raunchy Dances and a Golden- hearted Prostitute in Bhardwaj's Omkara (2006) Madhavi Biswas, University of Texas Dallas Abstract This essay argues that Omkara (dir. Vishal Bhardwaj, 2006) foregrounds contemporary gender concerns in modern, small-town India, primarily through the film's reformulation of the three female roles in Othello. Billo/Bianca, played by a glamorous, contemporary, female star, gets her own romance and two popular and raunchy song-and-dance tracks in Omkara. These dance tracks are a peculiar mixture of traditional folk Nautanki and identifiable Bollywood masala "item numbers," whose layered lyrics have been penned by Gulzar, a well-known poet, lyricist, scriptwriter, and ex-film-director who closely collaborates with Bhardwaj. The essay argues for the recognition of the songs in Omkara as a parallel narrative that intertwines with and intersects the central narrative of the plot, inflecting it with a range of cultural and social intertexts, along with a dash of metatextual flavor. The article examines how the two song-and-dance sequences by Billo/Bianca in the film use the familiar tropes of the "courtesan" figure of Hindi films and draw upon traditional folk-theater — reflecting both its local poetry and its vulgarity — to evoke a new kind of verbal and visual "realism" that intertwines Bollywood glamor with local histories. Omkara, with its big budget stars, glossy production values, and popular song- and-dance numbers interspersing the narrative — elements that are often associated with the "Bollywood" style of Hindi cinema — is the most obviously commercial of Vishal Bhardwaj's three Shakespearean adaptations.

  • The Making of a Terrorist: Through the Lens of Bollywood
    THE MAKING OF A TERRORIST Through the Lens of Bollywood by Coonoor Kripalani Bollywood: The Voice of the Subaltern1? The offerings of Bollywood have frog-leaped from the “low-brow”2 entertainment of yesteryear to become the cultural representatives of all things Indian in the current global economy. Popularity of these films is at an all-time high, reflecting their influence in food, fashion, music, dance, ritual, and worship to audi- ences around the globe.3 The patriotic fervor that runs through many of these films, both in terms of national identity and “Indian-ness” of culture, sends subliminal messages of what constitutes the national entity. To students of South Asia, viewing these films will provide a look into the Indian national psyche. The concepts of unity despite diversity, the sovereignty of territory, the sanctity of family, and sacrifice for the nation are reinforced in the popular genre of Hindi film. ell may the student ask why these messages of national bombs, suicide bomber attacks, and other acts of terror, which take unity are pervasive in a free market, where the producers place somewhere or other around the globe. Having moved out of W and directors of film are funded from the private sector, the Cold War era following the collapse of the Soviet Union, we and the commercial success of the film is the main objective.

  • A Qualitative Analysis of Young Hindi Film Viewers' Readings of Gender, Sexuality and Politics On- and Off-Screen
    A Qualitative Analysis of Young Hindi Film Viewers' Readings of Gender, Sexuality and Politics On- and Off-screen by Shakuntala Banaji This thesis is submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Culture, Language and Communication Institute of Education University of London July 2004 Abstract This thesis presents a qualitative analysis of the connections between meanings made from discourses of gender, sexuality and ethnicity in commercial Hindi films and the construction of gender, sexual and ethnic identity by young adult viewers. While expressing an understanding of cinema texts and audiences as always shaped by and responding to complex intersections of social, psychological and historical events, it also identifies and describes mechanisms of pleasure and discourses of gender ideology in Hindi films from the points of view of 'academic' and 'ordinary' viewers. Original photographs, observations and interviews at cinema halls and transcripts from in-depth interviews with young viewers from diverse social, linguistic and religious backgrounds in Bombay and London provide the bulk of the data. Critical discourse analysis and aspects of social semiotics and Screen theory provide the tools for analysis of the data. This study suggests that young viewers respond to films from a variety of intersecting subject positions; they rarely experience film texts as unitary and organic entities, treating certain sequences as far more significant than others. This study also finds strong connections between the discourses of gender, sexuality and politics articulated by or read into Hindi films and those voiced by young South Asian viewers. Saliently, though certain viewers use sequences in Hindi films as justifications for their political beliefs and/or private actions, others who express similar enjoyment, ridicule or despise the meanings they read into film sequences, remaining wary of their perceived 'effects'.
