  • Indian cinematography as a way of political manipulation

  • India is known all around the world as a country which saves traditions and culture since ancient times till nowadays.
  • Walking down the streets of India, you can still meet women wearing sarees; brahmins and kshatriyas still avoid communicating with sudras.
  • Innovations are taking roots in an extremely problematic way in this culture because of conservatism and stopping in development of many areas, especially among the paupers.
    • However , such a modern form of art as a cinematography, was perceived by Indians in a really great way: nowadays India occupies a leading position in the world film industry .
  • The question is why is Indian cinematography so successful and how did it manage to become an integral part of such inflexible society as Indian one is?
  • Let’s refer to the holy book of Hinduism - " Mahabharata " : Like a lordly tusker rising from a beauteous lotus lake, Rose Duryodhan from his brothers, proudly thus to Bhima spake: "With such insults seek not, Bhima, thus to cause a warrior grief, Bitter taunts but ill befit thee, warlike tiger-waisted chief, Proudest chief may fight the humblest, for like river's noble course, Noble deeds proclaim the warrior, and we question not their source!
  • Style and structure of the story remind us rather an Indian film than the Holy scripture.
  • For example, the Bible, the Torah , the Koran, the Tao Te Ching , the Dhammapada , Avesta are written stylistically in a completely different way.
  • Mahapharata’s spirit is a huge base of the Indian mentality .
  • That’s why Indian cinematography, which successfully picked up the national traditions of thinking and transformed them in a new way , harmoniously blended into the Indian culture , and became the integral part of it .
  • This also explains why there is such a large number of Mahabharata’s adaptations , although in the whole world adaptation of religious literature is quite a rare phenomenon.
  • But every sword has two edges , and entertaining function is not the only one of culture of masses , which is often a very subtle but powerful lever of influence .
  • Which else mechanisms of influence do exist and how do they work exactly in Indian society ?
  • The caste system in India is still preserved and is convenient for the government due to its separating function.
  • A big amount of reasons for differentiation (class , gender , geographical , etc.) is a very powerful tool in the hands of the Indian authorities , that’s why the chances of uniting of such a separated nation against the government are extremely small.
  • That’s why the supporting of this phenomenon is a strategically necessary thing to do.
  • Cinematography is one of the most effective tools .
  • Target audience of certain part of the Bollywood ‘s products includes mostly the lower classes of the population - poor, uneducated and emotional people.
  • According to this , a large percentage of Indian cinema products has the following criteries: - availability ; - primitive plot ; stereotypes ; - chanting the lives of ordinary people ; - rich people as characters-antagonists ; - the predominance of national songs and dances, which have the archetypal influence on the emotional sphere of the Indian audience.
  • A native resident of Delhi whose professional activities include producing films gave me a very clear example that confirms the thesis about the power of stereotypes imposed by the population : "While walking , you can see few guys who are trying to impress girls they are walking with , and I assure you , each of them does it in a similar way with some of the Indian movie characters .
  • And if you walk with me , I can name you the movie , the hero of which does the one or the other young man mimic .
  • And it's really awful .
  • " How to impress the girls, what to laugh at , what to get upset about , what to aspire to, how to think - many generations of behavior patterns of the lower castes are not only adopted by people , but reproduced with the smallest details .
  • The representatives of the lower castes who have much higher emotional factor than intellectual one are much easier to get manipulated .
  • Meanwhile the government continue to impose the politically convenient patterns of behavior by absolutely invisible for people ways.
  • In a nutshell, the Indian cinematography today is quite a significant layer of culture which is based on the ancient traditions; it occupies an important place in modern daily life of Indian society and is also a powerful lever of influence on the mentality of the lower castes of India's population.
