Bibliography, etc. Note: | Includes bibliographical references, filmography and index. |
Formatted Contents Note: | Introduction : reframing Bollywood -- Bollywood and its implied viewers -- the Bollywood song and dance, or making a culinary theatre from dung-cakes and dust : can the Bollywood film speak to the subaltern? -- Ho naa ho : the emergence of a homosexual subtext in Bollywood -- Usage problem : simulation and hyper-assimilation in the (crossover) Bollywood film -- Conclusion : travelling Bollywood. |

By deconstructing each of these hegemonic paradigms, it reshapes the understanding of a Bollywood film and restructures its relationships with multiple disciplines including film and theatre studies, postcolonial studies, South Asian studies, queer |
