Even when her son Raja is murdered at the tannery, her thoughts still don't come out in violence. She deals with her numbness and grief by thinking, "For this I have given you birth, my son, that you should lie at the end at my feet with ashes in your face and coldness in your limbs and yourself departed without a trace".

The perception of India is vastly changing with modernization emerging alongside India’s former traditions. Mira Nair does this quite well in her film Monsoon wedding (2001). The use of Hindi and the English language adapt to its western viewers as well as its Indian viewers. Mira Nair also illustrates a family background that is rare in a traditional Indian family. Some family members from the Verma family are from different parts of the world; including the groom who is an engineer from Houston, C.L Chandra who is a wealthy businessman in Bombay and his son that resides in Australia. The mix of western culture within tradition puts a spin on this Bollywood film. Mira Nair explores the immense amount of modernization through particular scenes of character interaction, the use of modern advancements and the depicting images you encounter throughout the movie, but yet still holds onto India’s traditions.
fragmented by the interruptions of song and dance, lending a sense of unreality. I believe Mira Nair successfully achieved her aim to make a Bollywood film on her own terms. As a director, she effectively combined the techniques of sound, editing, costume, colour and location to produce a fairly unique Bollywood film. Her message of the continuing modernisation of India, and her criticisms of both the societies she illustrates in the film comes across clearly, as do the more controversial points she brings up that Bollywood, as a film industry, does not typically address. Its appeal and effectiveness can be measured by the huge range of global audiences it has attracted, both Western and Eastern, which indicates that she accomplished her goal of making a realistic movie, breaking the traditional Bollywood mould.
The film was a box office sensation, raking in more than each of Sergeo Leone's dollars trilogy, thanks to its blend of humor and action.
Now the media is dubbing these famous 'love scenes' as rape and molestation of actors involved. We had a chat with actor Priyamani and sought her experience of acting in a disturbing scene in one of her films. Her Muththazhagu character from 2007 blockbuster Paruthiveeran is one of the landmarks in her acting career. The film's climax scene turned this romantic drama into a gut-wrenching tragedy.
Indian movies began production in the beginning of the 20th century and were, much like American films, in black and white. The very first movie produced with sound was Alam Ara which was released in 1931 and was directed by Ardeshir Irani. The first color Hindi movie was released in 1937 which is known to be the starting of the “golden Age “of the Indian film industry. It was referred as the golden age due to the release of many classical Indian music and popular films being released. In the 1970s, Indian film industry beat United States as the largest producer of movies in the world. Since then, it has become its own identity and is now termed as “Bollywood” which is mere combination of two words, Bombay (now known...
First and foremost, thank you, Mr. Mani Ratnam, for a reviving film. It's difficult to depict an affection story that begins at a route station without helping the group of onlookers to remember Alaipayuthey. Dulquer Salmaan pulls off the tall however charming look easily, helping all of us to remember that one companion who is neglectful of others hitting on him constantly. Nithya Menon plays that vocation arranged yet fun young lady every one of us need to know or be. Prakash Raj as the Strict Uncle with a delicate heart, and Leela Samson as his Alzheimer's stricken wife inspires sufficiently just

Indian drama emerged with the establishment of the Kendriya Natak Sangeet Akadmi in 1953 and national school of drama set up by Sangeet Natak Akadmi in 1959. With these academies drama grew in almost all the Indian languages.
