Evacuee Cinema: Bombay and Lahore in Partition Transit, 1940–1960 (Cambridge UP, 2022) offers a new history of the partition. Based on previously unexamined archives and rare films, it investigates key questions around film production, partition and the provenance of the nation in South Asia: How did partition transform the dynamic and transcultural film industry of undivided India? What has been the relationship between Pakistani and Indian Cinema? Could the cinematic rendition of Pakistan have preceded its territorial realisation? Focussing on the unravelling of artistic and economic ties between two formerly intimate film cities of colonial India, Bombay and Lahore, this book follows their transition into the nationally discrete production centres of independent India and Pakistan. Pursuing inflections, migrations and shifts across national lines, Evacuee Cinema explains how filmmaking interpreted national danger and examines the expulsion and rehabilitation that went into the making of ‘Indian' and ‘Pakistani' cinema.

Hello, Hello, Hello! In our first (of three!) episodes on Queerness in Film this month, Dhruv invites Queer Academic & SRK and KJo Fanboy Cris Patrick (@limjaeseven) to discuss the one thing he "avoided like the plague for the longest time as he himself came to terms with his identity" -- Queer REPRESENTATION in Bollywood. We emphasize the word "representation" because our focus for this episode is on films that overtly position themselves as queer narratives about queer people. This includes films that belong to, as Cris points out, the "Ayushmann Khurrana Social Messaging Industrial Complex" ("Chandigarh"), mainstream melodramas ("Ek Ladki..."), and incredible shorts buried within otherwise abhorrent Netflix anthologies ("Geeli Pucchi" in "Ajeeb Daastaans"). Listen to the full episode to hear us detail the history of Queer Representation, its aesthetics, and politics in Bollywood, especially before we tackle these three individual films -- two of which Dhruv and Cris are split on, one which they unabashedly adore.

Dev Patel, the Oscar-nominated star of acclaimed films such as Slumdog Millionaire and Lion, has become the latest Hollywood actor to take his career in a new direction.....by directing this propulsive revenge action thriller taking place in a fictional city within India modeled on Mumbai.  Patel also stars as "Kid" who is a young drifter on a mission to avenge the death of his mother at the hands of corrupt local politicians, gangsters, police, and even religious leaders. And while he's attempting to infiltrate their organization working low-level service jobs, he moonlights as a bare-knuckles fighter on the side ALWAYS wearing a monkey mask....in an attempt to emulate a legend he has known of since he was a kid of Hanuman the Monkey God. Hence the title. ;) And as the story progresses, so does his plan to exact revenge....and the violence predictably escalates as well.  Also co-starring in this production are Pitobash, Vipin Sharma, Sobhita Dhulipala, and Sharlto Copley. Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon https://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

This week on ‘Has It Aged Well?' we let our hair down (sorry Abbas), and headbang to our favourite guitar riffs because the film we're discussing is Abhishek Kapoor & Farhan Akhtar's ode to rock music from 2008 ‘Rock On' starring Akhtar, Arjun Rampal, Shahana Goswami, Luke Kenny and Purab Kohli. Joining Abbas and Urjita for the discussion is comedian Mikhail Almeida. Topics discussed include: Did Rock On contribute to the rise of ‘Hindi rock'? Is “Zehreelay” the greatest metal song of all time? Why is Magik the band so colourful with the costumes? Why does Farhan keep making ‘Dil Chahta Hai?' over and over again? And a lot more.
