- Summary:
- Cinema is not only a major industry in India, it is a powerful cultural force. In Bombay Cinema, Ranjani Mazumdar takes a multidisciplinary approach to understanding Bombay cinema as the unofficial archive of the city in India. In this analysis, Mazumdar reveals a complex post nationalist world, convulsed by the social crisis of the 1970's and transformed by the experience of globalization in the 1990's.
