Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'There is none like Uttam and there will be no one to ever replace him. He was and he is unparalleled in Bengali, even Indian cinema.'-Satyajit Ray, Oscar-winning Indian film-maker Actor and screen icon Uttam Kumar (1926–1980) is a talismanic figure in Bengali public life. Breaking away from established codes of onscreen performance, he came to anchor an entire industry and led the efforts to reimagine popular cinema in mid-20th-century Bengal. But there is pitifully less knowledge about Uttam Kumar in the learned circles-be it about his range of style and performance; the attractions and problems of his cinema; his roles as a producer and patriarch of the industry; or his persona, stardom and legacy. The first definitive cultural and critical biography of this larger-than-life figure engages meaningfully with his life and cinema, revealing the man, hero and actor from various, often competing, vantages. The conceptual aim is to locate a star figure within a larger historical and cultural context, and to enquire into how a towering image was mobilised for an ever-greater, wholesome, popular and even, at times, radical and progressive entertainment. A complimentary métier of this work is to explore why and how this star persona would go on to reconstitute the bhadrolok Bengali visual and cultural world in the post-Partition period. But above all, this is the story of a clerk who became an actor, an actor who became a star, a star who became an icon and an icon who became a legend.

Download or read book The Poet’s Song written by Priyanka Basu and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-08-27 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the ‘folk’ performance genre of Kobigaan, a dialogic song-theatre form in which performers verse-duel, in contemporary West Bengal in India and Bangladesh. Thought to be a nearly extinct form, the book shows how the genre is still prevalent in the region. The author shows how like many other ‘folk’ practices in South and South-East Asia, the content and format of this genre has undergone vital changes thus raising questions of authenticity, patronage and cultural politics. She captures live performances of Kobigaan through ethnographies spread across borders — from village rituals to urban festivals, and from Bengali cinema to television and new media. While understanding Kobigaan from the practitioners’ points-of-view, this book also explores the crucial issues of gender, marginalization and representation that is true of any performance genre. Drawing on case studies, it underlines the issues of artistic agency, empowerment, cultural labour and heritage, ritual, authenticity, creative industries, media, gender, and identity politics. Part of the ‘South Asian History and Culture’ series, this book is a major intervention in South Asian folklore and performance studies. It also expands into the larger disciplines of literature, social and cultural movements in South Asia, ethnomusicology and the politics of performance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I want to make three promises. First, I will not hesitate to make any efforts to fulfill any responsibility that the people of the country put on my shoulders. Second, I will not do anything for my personal benefit and third, I will not work with any malafide intentions. I assure you for these three things." -Narendra Modi The popularity of Narendra Damodardas Modi has increased multifold after he became the Prime Minister of India. He has achieved fame within the country and all over the world. Narendra Modi has also earned himself a new place of pride in the countries who have keen interest in India. Everyone is watching him for his next steps with eagerness and interest. Apart from Pakistan, many superpowers like USA, Britain and China are very anxious to improve their ties with us. Everyone hopes that India will witness a new dawn of progress on its horizon. This is also an acid test of how he will face and solve the challenges posed by the nation, how he will give a direction to the aspirations of millions of citizens and how he will fulfil the promises made by him before the election. This may not be new to him, as he has been regularly confronting challenges since his childhood. There are numerous questions but they also have answers because ever since he took up the reins of Gujarat for the first time in 2001, he has never looked back. Now, he holds the command of the entire country in his hands. He did this because he is a great leader. A Mahanayak- a great leader indeed! Kumar Pankaj, an experienced journalist has studied the entire journey of Narendra Modi, starting from his childhood to the present position he holds today, in great depth. This work, by the successful author of 'Namo mantra of Narendra Modi', is worth preserving.
