'Dudrah! successfully renews an interdisciplinary dialog between cinema and sociology! Dudrah's book is a great reference for multi-disciplinary research! the book gives academic credence to Bollywood cinema' - "The Tribune". 'A new book which gives an extraordinary insight into Bollywood' - "Asian Voice". 'This book asks and answers some interesting questions about what exactly Bollywood is' - "New India Express". Why are people fascinated with Bollywood? What is the cultural significance of the films produced there? In recent years Bollywood - the popular Hindi cinema from Mumbai (formerly Bombay), India - has received widespread international attention in the global media. The book examines the reasons for this interest and provides an unrivaled guide to the phenomenon. The book: provides a comprehensive theoretical and empirical engagement with Bollywood cinema and its audiences; examines the role and representations of cultural icons in Bollywood films; pinpoints the key trends in the Bollywood film industry as it develops in the age of globalization; subjects Bollywood to the first systematic sociological, cultural and media analysis. Packed with memorable examples and penetrating insights, this is a marvelous work which combines sociology with media and cultural analysis to provide a highly original account of the Bollywood phenomenon.
