Transcript of Chennai express- Social Media Marketing Strategy
Started without audio with Raja Harishchandra (1913).
The silent era came to an end with Alam Ara (1931).
The ‟40s established a close relationship between consciousness and the art of cinema
‟40s to the late ‟50s ushered the golden era of music.
‟60s, Indian Cinema entered in its Golden Age.
By dealing with the social and political conditions and predicaments of the common man. N
• ‟70s, social norms , changing economics influenced films and the producers. The genre promised instant attraction and had great entertainment value.
• But art cinema was not neglected due to this rise of commercial cinema. • The ‟90s brought forth a mixed genre of romance, thriller, action and comedy
films. • A stark upgrade can be seen on the canvas as technology gifted the industry
Dolby Digital sound effects, advanced special effects, choreography and international appeal.
• Apart from regular screenings at major international film festivals, regular foreign investments made by major global studios like 20th Century Fox, Sony Pictures, Warner Bros have proved that Bollywood has etched itself on the global podium.
PARALLEL FILMS• It started in 1969 with Bhuvan Shome made by Mrinal Sen.• With a low budget, no stars and devoid of songs, Ankur
(1973) was a truly unconventional Indian film. • Notable directors of parallel cinema include Satyajit Ray,
Mrinal Sen, Guru Dutt and later came O.P. Nayyar, MeeraNair, Aparna Sen and others.
• Pather Panchali, Mother India, Naya Daur, Monsoon Wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Iyer and others took Indian cinema to new heights.
• But these films were limited in number, and though they received international fame, they bombed at the box office.
• It led to bankruptcy of the filmmakers and in many cases ended their careers.
Commercial films have the sole criterion of being a commercial success.
These movies don‟t experiment with new themes or plots but carry on the same tested successful formula. They have absurd comic punches, physics defying stunts, item songs and absolutely senseless unidirectional stories.
The direction and screenplay are pathetic and the acting is either insipid or over dramatic.
Its perfect example is Chennai Express, which is by far the most successful Indian movie of all time.
