Analyzes the role of the cinema’s most popular blockbusters in making, unmaking, and remaking modern India
Steven Rea:A lively, thoughtful writer, Joshi shows how Bollywood films have mirrored India's social, political and economic changes, and how western films have been influenced by Bollywood trends and motifs.
Lavishly illustrated... this volume would be an excellent course text for a semester on Bollywood.... Highly recommended.
Rajinder Dudrah, University of Manchester:Priya Joshi's work is a timely assessment of key films and periods in Bollywood's history. Its wide-ranging literary, theoretical, and sociocultural perspectives, which cut across literature, postcolonial studies, media, and cultural studies, will surely be taken up by other scholars as well as general readers. A fine piece of scholarship.
