    TYING THE KNOT: A DISCUSSION WITH INDIAN AMERICANS ON ARRANGED MARRIAGE THROUGH BOLLYWOOD A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture, and Technology By Poothi Krishna Madhavi Reddi, B.A. Washington, D.C. April 19, 2018 Copyright 2018 by Poothi Krishna Madhavi Reddi All Rights Reserved !ii TYING THE KNOT: A DISCUSSION WITH INDIAN AMERICANS ON ARRANGED MARRIAGE THROUGH BOLLYWOOD Poothi Krishna Madhavi Reddi, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Jeanine W. Turner, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Bollywood films have a strong presence in the lives of Indian Americans. Previous studies show that they play a significant role in shaping cultural identity. A salient theme in Bollywood films, particularly of the 90’s and early 2000’s, is love. A common narrative of these films features the protagonist choosing between love and arranged marriage, a metaphorical representation of the modernity versus tradition debate borne of the liberalization of the Indian economy in 1991. This very conflict transcends into the lives of several Indian Americans. Taking into account the pervasiveness of Bollywood in the lives of Indian Americans, this paper asks “how do today’s dating-age Indian Americans talk about arranged marriage through the romantic Bollywood films that they grew up on?” This question is addressed through two qualitative studies; first, a qualitative content analysis of nine Bollywood films released between 1994-2004 to establish the negative bias towards arranged marriage in cinema, and second, ten in-depth interviews with Indian Americans to understand how their views on Bollywood and arranged marriage intersect.
