As filmmakers challenge highly controversial amendments to the Cinematograph Act, The Swaddle team discusses the history of the censor board in India, and whether we really need it.
In our first ever episode, we tackle how pop culture and mainstream media in Bollywood portray women and marginalized characters. To contextualize our discussion, we took note of the male and feminine gazes in cinema and art, and how they uphold (or subvert) traditional ideas of gender roles, social and power dynamics, and other forms of identity privilege. For this episode, we specifically chose some recent films and shows coming out of Bollywood that marketed themselves as feminist works. Our watchlist included blockbusters like Veere di Wedding and Four More Shots Please! as well as critically acclaimed media like Lipstick Under My Burkha, Sir, Bulbbul, and Made in Heaven.Our next episode is a Saucy Deep Dive on Khabi Khushi Khabie Gham.- - -For more on the episodes, check out the extended Show Notes for additional reading material, explanations, and videos.

Whether it's a stroke of a cheek or a sex scene, filming intimate content for movies and TV is a delicate business. When badly handled, it can even cause the actors harm. Kim Chakanetsa talks to an Indian movie director and to a pioneering intimacy coordinator about ensuring actors feel safe on set while filming simulated sex scenes. Also: has the #MeToo movement fuelled a demand for better boundaries, and how is the industry responding? Ita O'Brien is a British movement director and intimacy coordinator for film, TV and theatre. She worked on the set of I May Destroy You, Normal People, Gentleman Jack and Sex Education. She has developed the 'Intimacy on Set' guidelines for those working with intimacy, scenes with sexual content and nudity. Alankrita Shrivastava is an Indian screenwriter and director. Her 2017 movie, Lipstick Under My Burkha, was initially banned in India for containing 'contagious sexual scenes'. She explains the challenges of shooting sex scenes in Bollywood, where nudity isn't allowed, and how to put women's desire at the centre of the narrative. Produced by Sarah Kendal and Alice Gioia for the BBC World Service. IMAGE DETAILS Left: Alankrita Shrivastava (credit Komal Gandhi) Right: Ita O'Brien (credit Nic Dawkes)

What, dear listener, is freedom? Is it the aghori rolling around on the banks of the Ganges so that the American camera crew films him? Is it watching Lipstick Under My Burkha?

Hear their reviews of CNN's Believer With Reza Aslan and Hooda's new show on MTV, The Big F. Also, was Mira Rajput's comment on working women worth this much fuss?

An episode so incredibly DISTURBING, it's currently blocked on YouTube!! And all we did was talk about a few episodes of "Star Trek Discovery" and "The Orville", an anime series on Netflix called "Neo Yokio" (I'm guessing THIS is why the video version of this podcast is blocked), a Trinbagonian movie named "Moko Jumbie", an Indian movie (and a GREAT ONE at that) named "Lipstick under my Burkha", an indie thriller named "It Comes At Night" and another example of "bigger doesn't always mean better" named "Kingsman: The Golden Circle".

In this week’s look at Asia, we hear about a film which had its release delayed in India for six months by the censorship board. It’s called Lipstick Under My Burkha and it screened in Paris this month at the South Asian Film Festival. Rosslyn Hyams has been talking to the film's director. Lipstick Under My Burkha is a feminist film of the most watchable kind.Director Alankrita Shrivastava says "the title is a metaphor for women's hidden desires, hidden dreams". Her Hindi-language film shot in Bhopal opened the fifth South Asian Film Festival in Paris in October. It had previously been shown in France at the Créteil Womens' Film Festival.She struggled for more than six months before getting approval for release in India after a screening at the Bombay Festival in November 2016. "They said it was too much from the female perspective," she explains. "It may have threatened the patriarchal norm. But India is still a functioning democracy. So we were able to have the ban lifted." Related issues were raised by one or two people in a question and answer session after the film, with one person asking why there were no positive male roles in the film, for example. In fact, none of the characters are black-and-white in Lipstick Under My Burkha, and that's just what sets it apart. It stars four women. Rathna Pathak as the yearning widow, Usha, stands up for all the residents of the community where she lives but incurs their wrath when she hurts the pride of a local stud. Konkona Sen Sharma, a mother of three subjected to marital rape by her cheating husband, cheats on him by hiding her fabulous career as a sales rep. Ahana Kumra plays Leela, a female college student whose traditional Muslim father has nonetheless saved to enable her to go to a college where she mixes freely with young men. Plabita Borthakur is a sex-hungry beautician infatuated with a wedding photographer with an appetite to match hers but whose mother has her own reasons for wanting to arrange a marriage with a romantic man who naively believes his wife would be happier at home. Set in Bhopal The film is set in Bhopal. The character Usha was made a widow by the Union Carbide chemical plant disaster of 1984. However, Shrivastava set the film in Bhopal because of its social make-up, "I wanted many elements of Bhopal, like the old city being a separate geographical area and a new city coming up. I wanted an old city where Hindus and Muslims still live in close proximity." The South Asian Film Festival in Paris or FFAST as it's known for short, has been going for five years. The independent films it shows from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka tend, in general, to push the boundaries of accepted norms one way or another. Floriane Zaslavsky, one of the three FFAST programmers notes that four out of the six films in competition, including Hindi film Hotel Salvation which was first seen in France at the Festival of Asian Cinema (Fica) in Vesoul in February 2017 and Sri Lankan Tamil film Demons in Paradise, which screened out of competition at Cannes in May, are films that had trouble obtaining authorisation for public viewing. As the FFAST festival's focus on Tamil films from south-east India and Sri Lanka show, independent cinema from the region is inescapably political. FFAST is on until Tuesday 10 October at the Cinéma Etoile, Porte des Lilas, Paris.
Why Lipstick Under My Burkha, despite its numerous flaws, had enough going for it to be a significant film. This is the first in a new Bollywood Weekly episode format - where we provide a catch-up episode of a movie that released in the last few months that we were not able to cover on the podcast.

1) Toilet: Ek Prem Katha is problematic in so many ways, most significantly reinforcing stalking and male privilege in a film about empowering women and giving them basic rights. 2) Despite this, the main crux of the movie - toilets and lack thereof - is addressed and delivered effectively. Bhumi Pednekar overshadows Akshay but is given limited opportunity to so in the second half because...Bollywood. 3) We look ahead to (in order of excitement and in reverse order of likely box office success) Newton, Fukrey 2, and Simran 4) Our guest Ashwin gives us a quick down-low on Lipstick Under My Burkha and why it was so effective. #Bollywood #BollywoodWeekly #Movies #Film #Entertainment #MovieReview #FilmReview #AkshayKumar #BhumiPednekar #Toilet #AnupamKher #Newton #RajkummarRao #BareillyKiBarfi #AyushmannKhurana #KritiSanon #Simran #KanganaRanaut #HansalMehta #Fukrey2

Jahan has worked on digital and creative marketing strategies for films including Masaan, Lipstick Under My Burkha, and Newton. He currently divides his time between script development, film subtitling, collecting, curating, and writing about movie posters. Did I say Movie posters? Yes! Today we are here to discuss Posterphilia as an Audiogyan case study with Jahan. Questions What is Posterphilia? Why did you start it? Can you share in detail the process of curation? What are your criteria? I found few articles like, Kishore Kumar in posters, raining posters - What are your plans w.r.t categorizing these? Any thoughts there? Have you spotted any micro and macro trend in these Indian film posters? Illustrations versus photos? Be it digital or hand-painted. Have you formed any opinions and judgments based on the posters you found - For eg: Movies before the 1970s had better-looking posters than today's - aesthetically or any such parameters? Anything like that? Speaking about posters, one can never go without talking about Ray. The posters which I see on your Instagram, a lot of them are well-designed posters that can compete with Ray's graphical sensibilities. What do you think? You have written a nice article about what makes a great poster. You have also collected a lot of Holywood posters. What can we learn from them and what can they learn from Bollywood art? Can you give names of really great poster designers across the globe? I would like to also ask you about your more recent exploration of Bollywood posters in Japan and other parts of the world. Can you share that bit? Any idea how did they travel that far? Any insights on what made those people redo the entire graphic than just translation of titles in their scripts and contexts. I understand that the next question itself is an Audiogyan, but if you can briefly tell about plagiarism in posters - How evident is this trend. Today and maybe in the 1960s to 80s where we also copied a lot of music. I don't have the latest data but, in 2018, India made about 1813 films, China 1082, Japan 613, US 576, France a few hundred, and the least was the UK. 202. Overall we are talking about around 6K films. This is just one year. Cinema has been going for 120 years now. What is the overall plan with this Posterphilia?
