nTwo Indian economists Bibek Debroy and Amir Ullah Khan made a documentary – ‘India’s Economic Transition Through Bollywood Eyes’. The film showcased India’s political, economic and legislative milestones through film clips taken from Indian films released over the last fifty years. The film was also shown to economics and management school students across India. Just goes to show how cinema, a so-called medium of entertainment, could be used to teach a ‘dry’ subject like economics. One year later, the duo took the same approach to highlight the travails of marginal farmers in India through another documentary- Village Vignettes (Agriculture and the Small Farmers in India-A Bollywood Perspective). The documentary was distributed on CDs by a Delhi-based non-profit organisation, International Development Enterprises.
nMuch earlier, in 1996, Dr Brij Kothari, who was writing a dissertation at Cornell University, hit upon the idea of making use of Bollywood’s popularity to spread educational awareness outside the classroom. He now uses the ‘Same Language Subtitles’ technology to spread literacy in this method, with the help of Google. Google, in fact, is funding Dr Kothari’s venture titled ‘Planet Read’. The project is mostly active in Mumbai. Under the project, regional language films, film and folk songs are sub-titled for reading development. Dr Kothari’s potential targets are the 500 million Indians who have access to TV, but have low literacy skills and are poor.
nAmerican Ivy League institutions like Harvard and MIT are also studying Bollywood. Three MIT graduate students created ‘BollySpace: An Interactive Dance Technology Project’ using music and themes from Bollywood movies. They took the help of live dancers who interacted with digital images projected on a screen.
