In this paper I use 3 films namely Chetan Anand’s Hindustan Ki Kasam and J.P. Dutta’s Border and Farhaan Akhtar’s Lakshya1 to Keywords argue that use of melodramatic theory allows war films to create an emotional impact so Melodrama, War, Film. that trauma is articulated and meanings is better explored in the Filmic text. In this paper, I will show how the Bollywood war film often relies on melodrama to create the emotional effects and how melodramatic mode is applied in the. In my paper the ideological implications of war films can be better understood more clearly from the melodramatic framework. In this paper , I would like to argue that war films are produced when there is a crisis like situation and there is resolution through these films. For my paper I mainly focus on some of the war Films post 1960s that became common in subsequent years as a result of significant shift in the way Indian nation was imagined militarily and politically post 1962.2 1 Hindustan Ki Kasam (English: The Oath of Hindustan) is a 1973 war movie based on Operation Cactus Lilly in the Indo-pak war of 1971 directed by Chetan Anand , Border is a 1997 , Indian War film based on the Battle of Longewala during the Indo-Pakistan war of 1971, produced and directed by J. P. Dutta (top 10 films on Indo- Pak conflict ,times of india , 30 march 2011) , Lakshya (English: Aim) is a 2004 Indian war-drama, directed by Farhan Akhtar 2 By this I mean to say that In 1962, India was a humiliated and defeated nation in Sino- India conflict while In 1971 India was a victorious nation and was not a mere winner in the war, but was the midwife in the birth of a new nation (The reference here is to the formation of an independent Bangladesh (former East Pakistan) in 1971). RRIJM 2015, All Rights Reserved 2313 | P a g e Volume-04, Issue-01, January-2019 RESEARCH REVIEW International Journal of Multidisciplinary Methodology marked by the narrative of shame that India has to face after For my paper, I will use melodrama and its theoretical being defeated by China. I argue that these war films were framework such as Peter Brooks’ seminal study The made because there was a crisis like situation and the nation Melodramatic Imagination (1976), which argues that and its interest was significantly challenged by the aggressor melodrama is not just a theatrical genre but a quintessentially nation state like China and Pakistan. In the 1960s there was an modern aesthetic mode and according to Brooks ,the purpose attack on cartographic sovereignty of Indian Nation by China. of the melodramatic mode is to chart out emotional excess, Result was Sino-Indian conflict in which India lost badly. improbable plotting, moral reductiveness, and a reliance on Therefore it was crisis of war that created the necessity of a exaggerated gestures and over determined bodily signs in a war films. SoIt could be safe to argue that necessity to making work of literature or film.3 war films only arises because there is a crisis like situation I will also make references to Linda Williams works who called war7. But Bollywood never had to make a proper war film argues that melodrama operates across a wide range of till the making of Haqeeqat. This was mainly because up until aesthetic forms and identifies the defining feature of the 1962 Sino-Indian War, India had not been directly involved melodrama as recognition of the virtue of a victim-hero. She in a war. In a proper sense, Not all war films can be seen as argues that melodrama “invites us to feel sympathy for the war films. While we may use the term "war cinema" broadly. It virtues of beset victims” and is primarily “concerned with the could be problematic if we categorize every films which retrieval and staging ofinnocence.”4 Here in this light Bollywood highlights India Pakistan tension as back drop to be counted war films can really fill in the gaps of melodramatic mode under war genre. Therefore for my paper I have particularly because war films does really forces us to thinks about the chosen 3 films namely Hindustan Ki Kasam, Border and precarious situation of virtuous soldier who is fighting to save Lakshya. These 3 films are mainly based around the Conflict the honor of the nation. Nationalistic fervour are present in the related to India Pakistan relations. melodramatic plot of war films. They are intentionally inserted into narrative to create the impression of instant longing for the War Film as family narrative mother nation. Indian war films works around the idea of family being the I derive my methodology of my paper from arguments epicentre of the narrative. Filmmakers like Chetan Anand , J.P. made by Linda Williams theory of Melodrama. Her theory is Dutta and Farhan Akhtar all trace out the family being the based on five key features of the melodrama as a genre: first, a influencer of drive of characters. In these films, family becomes space of innocence; second, a victim-hero and the recognition the site of intersection where not only war heroes are produced of his/her virtue; third, realism adapted to the emotional and also Martyr are eulogised and given rebirth.

    Ajeeb Aadmi—An Introduction I , Sa‘adat Hasan Manto, Krishan Chandar, Rajinder Singh Bedi, Kaifi Azmi, Jan Nisar Akhtar, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Ali Sardar Jafri, Majaz, Meeraji, and Khawaja Ahmed Abbas. These are some of the names that come to mind when we think of the Progressive Writers’ Movement and modern Urdu literature. But how many people know that every one of these writers was also involved with the Bombay film indus- try and was closely associated with film directors, actors, singers and pro- ducers? Ismat Chughtai’s husband Shahid Latif was a director and he and Ismat Chughtai worked together in his lifetime. After Shahid’s death Ismat Chughtai continued the work alone. In all, she wrote scripts for twelve films, the most notable among them ◊iddµ, Buzdil, Sån® kµ ≤µ∞y≥, and Garm Hav≥. She also acted in Shyam Benegal’s Jun∑n. Khawaja Ahmed Abbas made a name for himself as director and producer for his own films and also by writing scripts for some of Raj Kapoor’s best- known films. Manto, Krishan Chandar and Bedi also wrote scripts for the Bombay films, while all of the above-mentioned poets provided lyrics for some of the most alluring and enduring film songs ever to come out of India. In remembering Kaifi Azmi, Ranjit Hoskote says that the felicities of Urdu poetry and prose entered the consciousness of a vast, national audience through the medium of the popular Hindi cinema; for which masters of Urdu prose, such as Sadat [sic] Hasan Manto, wrote scripts, while many of the Progressives, Azmi included, provided lyrics.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

  • Inspired by Love and War
    METROPLUS Inspired by love and war From Haqeeqat RANJAN DAS GUPTA 23 MARCH 2015 19:48 IST UPDATED: 23 MARCH 2015 19:48 IST Looking back at Chetan Anand’s work on the big screen “Chetan, saw Haqeeqat. Strong visuals, excellent music but no story,” Satyajit Ray had reportedly said to Chetan Anand at the Oberoi Grand lobby in October, 1964. Both were to receive the coveted BFJA awards for Charulata and Haqeeqat. Chetan smiled and replied, “ Haqeeqat is not a film. It’s a mosaic.” Ray confessed a number of times that he was inspired to work with maestros Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan after listening to the music of Neecha Nagar and Aandhiyan. However, it was Chetan Anand, whose birth centenary was celebrated in January this year, who introduced Ravi Shankar ( Neecha Nagar) and Ali Akbar Khan ( Aandhiyan) as composers in films. The eldest of the talented Anands was a recluse by nature, but versatile as a filmmaker and actor. Winning the Grand prize at Cannes for Neecha Nagar (1946), along with David Lean ( Brief Encounter), is a proud testimony to his filmmaking skills. In his 50-year career, Chetan directed 18 films and a tele-serial Param Veer Chakra. Though a majority of his directorial ventures were flops, he has carved a niche in the annals of Indian cinema. When Chetan directed Neecha Nagar in 1946, he was greatly influenced by the leftist leanings of the IPTA and the works of Sergei Eisenstein and Pudovkin. The film too was avant-garde and anti-imperialist. Despite it being a masterpiece, Neecha Nagar bit the dust.
