Applying postmodern concepts and locating postmodern motifs in key commercial Hindi films, this innovative study reveals how Indian cinema has changed in the 21st century. Equipping readers with an alternative method of reading contemporary Indian cinema, Bollywood and Postmodernism takes Indian film studies beyond the exhausted theme of diaspora, and exposes a new decade of aesthetic experimentation and textual appropriation in mainstream Bombay cinema. A bold celebration of contemporary Bollywood texts, this book radically redefines Indian film and persuasively argues for its seriousness as a field of study in world cinema. 517 3 $aBollywood & Postmodernism 606 $aMotion pictures$zIndia$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects 606 $aPostmodernism 615 0$aMotion pictures$xHistory 615 0$aMotion pictures$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aPostmodernism. 676 $a791.4/3/0954 700 $aWright$b Neelam Sidhar$01713176 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910825503203321 996 $aBollywood and postmodernism$94105938 997 $aUNINA
