Exploring the Religious and Environmental Allusions in Ram Teri Ganga Maili
The Railway Men
The Bhopal Disaster, also known as the Bhopal Gas Tragedy, is recognized as the world’s worst industrial disaster. The Bhopal Disaster is the only industrial disaster affecting half a million people in the last few decades. Because of the sheer magnitude of this disaster, this topic remains relevant, especially to learn what preventive measures could have been taken to ensure such a tragedy never occurred. The disaster occurred from a mixture of …

Interpreting and Responding to Pandemics in Philosophical Traditions and Films of India
India and the rest of the world continue to witness waves of COVID -19. In this article, I present myriad examples of ethical issues in the context of pandemics that hit India in the last few centuries. I also analyze the relevance of Indian texts and films in the context of various pandemics. The article quotes several primary and secondary texts to explore interpreting and responding to different pandemics and broader health issues. As the worl…
Children of the Soil' to 'Dark Wind
India is widely known as the biggest producer of films, now globally known with the portmanteau “Bollywood.” India also grabs the media attention for another reason—climate change. In 2015, The New York Times published an op-ed with a cartoon showing India as the proverbial “elephant” blocking the progress at the Paris Climate Change Conference. With the staggering number of films India produces and the steady increase in climate change-related d…

Bimal Roy’s Do Bigha Zamin (“Two-thirds of an acre of land” 1 ), made in 1953, was perhaps the first Indian film to win accolades across Europe, China and Russia, in addition to getting several awa
Sara Jahan Hamara
This article explores the connection of Hindi and Tamil films with outbound tourism from India. Some of the older Hindi and Tamil films portrayed foreign locations and their cultures in quite critical ways. Often protagonists in earlier films would go for a short trip abroad for immediate career-related needs and then return faithfully to their motherland. However, after the 1990s, Indians emerged as a confident globe-trotting people covering the…

Winged Faith
Dharma and Ecology of Hindu Communities
In Indic religious traditions, a number of rituals and myths exist in which the environment is revered. Despite this nature worship in India, its natural resources are under heavy pressure with its growing economy and exploding population. This has led several scholars to raise questions about the role religious communities can play in environmentalism. Does nature worship inspire Hindus to act in an environmentally conscious way? This book explo…
Such a Long Journey
The early Indian film industry was dominated by Parsis (followers of the Zoroastrian faith), as has been widely noted by scholars, for instance by Rajadhyaksha and Willemen [(1999)2008: 171] and Dwyer [Citation2006]. The most notable founding fathers of the Indian film industry were Ardesh Irani, Sohrab Modi and the Wadia brothers. Among noted Parsi actors were David in the past, and Boman Irani in current Hindi films. Similarly the popular singe…

The portrayal of Hindu–Muslim relations in Hindi-language films has been a topic of discussion in several recent writings; for instance, in Chadha and Kavoori [2008 Chadha , Kalyani , and Anandam P. Kavoori 2008 Exoticized, Marginalized, Demonized: The Muslim “Other” in Indian Cinema . In Global Bollywood . Anandam P. Kavoori and Aswin Punathambekar , eds. Pp. 131 – 145 .

Renunciation and Non-Renunciation in Indian Films
Renunciation is one of the most widely studied subjects among Indic traditions. The image of a half-naked ascetic with a stick in one hand and a begging bowl in other has captured the attention of scholars more often than the mundane householder. Whereas the ascetic captured the imagination with his (and sometimes her) individualistic spirit rebelling against the maligned caste hierarchy, the householder has been seen as a poor creature living a …
From Kil-Arni to Anthony
Although Christianity established a connection with Indian films even before the first Indian film was made in 1912, the portrayal of Christians is rarely a topic of discussion. In this article, I survey Indian films which feature the relationship of Hindus and Christians but have escaped the attention of film scholars. Although the recent upsurge in “cinepatriotism” and “Hinduness” in Hindi films is rightly criticized by scholars, in this articl…
Dharmic Ecology
This is an article about the lives of the Swadhyayis, Swadhyaya practitioners, in the Indian states of Gujarat and Maharashtra. The Swadhyaya movement arose in the mid-twentieth century in Gujarat as a new religious movement led by its founder, the late Pandurang Shastri Athavale. In my research, I discovered that there is no category of "environmentalism" in the "way of life" of Swadhyayis living in the villages. Following Weightman and Pandey (…
