Course Description
This course explores the dual role of Bollywood in society, viz., that as an agent of social change on the one hand, and as a mirror of social reality on the other. Through a historical trace of the influence of Bollywood cinema on society at various points in South Asian history, as well as an examination of the representations of South Asian society in Bollywood over the years, this course begs us to critically reevaluate the role of cinema and popular culture as mere entertainment in society.
