Twenty-First Century Bollywood: Routledge Contemporary South Asia Series
Autor Ajay Gehlawaten Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 dec 2016
The particular shifts in contemporary Bollywood cinema that the book examines include the changing nature of the song and dance sequence, the evolving representations of male and female sexuality, and the increasing presence of whiteness as a dominant trope in Bollywood cinema. It also focuses on the increasing presence of Bollywood in higher education courses in the West, as well as how Bollywood’s growing presence in such academic contexts illuminates the changing ways in which this cinema is consumed by Western audiences.
Shifting the focus back on the cinematic elements of contemporary films themselves, the book analyses Bollywood films by considering the film dynamics on their own terms, and related to their narrative and aesthetic usage, rather than through an analysis of large-scale industrial practices. It will be of interest to students and scholars of South Asian Studies, Film Studies, and Cultural Studies.

Recenzii
"This interesting and original study of Bollywood cinema offers the reader a sense of where Hindi films might be headed in the 21st century, as audiences, technologies and societies become more hybrid and more interactive. With a keen eye for the special history and distinctive markers of this genre of films -such as the role of song and dance as fundamental diegetic elements, Gehlawat highlights issues of race, class and gender in a rich analysis of the global life of a major national film industry. It will be of interest to students of cinema, of India and of cultural globalization."

Descriere
Key changes have emerged in Bollywood in the new millennium. Twenty-First Century Bollywood traces the emerging shifts in both the content and form of Bollywood cinema and examines these new tendencies in relation to the changing dynamics of Indian culture. The book historically situates these emerging trends in relation to previous norms, and develops new, innovative paradigms for conceptualizing Bollywood in the twenty-first century.
