Description
"From reviews Prasad's indefatigable - and at times quite inventive - scrutiny of post-Independence Hindi cinema is formidable in its scholarship, focused (almost narrowly so) in setting out its theoretical framework, admirable in its research, acutely original in places, and surprisingly readable.' - Maithili Rao, The Book Review ... this book offers a challenging new perspective on the production of the Hindi film, break(ing) genuinely new ground. Brilliant, intriguing, learned, committed - and annoyingly abstruse in parts - one can be certain that the study of Indian popular cinema will not be the same again.' - Patricia Uberoi, The Pioneer ... something of a landmark in Indian film studies.' -Ravi Vasudevan, Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies"
