The 1970s and its Legacies in Indias Cinemas

This vibrant new collection brings together original research from across the humanities and social sciences that examines the legacies of the 1970s in India's cinemas, offering invaluable insights into this important period. The authors demonstrate that the historical processes underway in the 1970s are important even today, and can be deciphered in the aural and visual medium of Indian cinema. The book explores two central themes: first, popular cinema's role in constructing the decade's public culture; and second, the powerful and under-studied archive of the decade as present in India's popular cinemas even today.

This book is based on a special issue of South Asian Popular Culture.
