| Summary, etc. | "In last few decades, Bollywood movies are often responsible at typifying an image of India by mocking temples and priests, portrays professors in top institutions as incompetent, showing teachers as buffoons, politicians as wicked, police as merciless, bureaucrats as narrow-minded, judges as unjust, and speaking Hindi language as parochial.<br/><br/>Have you ever wondered why Bollywood movie songs and dialogues continue to be in Urdu? Why is the promiscuous woman often. given a Christian name, Sikhs reduced to comic relief, and working women shown drinking and smoking? Why have courtroom oaths on the Bhagavad Gita disappeared, and the Indian flag disappeared from movie backdrops?<br/><br/>This book seeks to answer these important questions. The book also compares Bollywood and Hollywood movies, showing how the latter has created a yearning for the American way of life. Films influence public opinion and behaviour. If that weren't true, movies like Aandhi (1975), Kissa Kursi Ka (1977), and Black Friday (2005) wouldn't have faced bans. Cinema shapes society, and Bollywood must recognise its power and the responsibility that comes with it."<br/><br/>(https://www.prabhatbooks.com/power-of-movies-how-they-shape-our-society.htm) |
