Bollywood

Bollywood is the informal term popularly used for

the Hindi-language film industry based in Mumbai

The term is often incorrectly used to refer to the

whole of Indian cinema

The name "Bollywood" is derived from Bombay

(the former name for Mumbai) and Hollywood (the

center of the American film industry)

One of the largest film producers not only in India,

but in the world

History of Bollywood…

Raja Harishchandra

(1913), by Dadasaheb

Phalke, was the first

silent feature film made

in India.

In the 1930s, the

industry was producing

over 200 films per

annum. The first Indian

sound film, Ardeshir

Irani's Alam Ara

(1931), was a major

commercial success

1940s to the 1960s is

regarded by film

historians as the "Golden

Age" of Hindi cinema.

Colour movies become a

popular feature in the late

1950s

Modern Cinema

In the 1970s, Themes

revolved around gritty,

violent films about

gangsters and bandits.

Amitabh Bachchan was

known for his "angry

young man" roles

During the 1980s, the

pendulum swung back

toward family-centric

romantic musicals

1990s witnessed the

emergence of stars of a

new generation of actors

(Aamir Khan, Salman

Khan and Shahrukh

Khan) and actresses

(Sridevi, Madhuri Dixit

and Kajol)

The Current Scenario

Indian Film Industry Size

Current Market Situation

Bollywood is the largest film

producer in the world. They

produce roughly 1000 movies a

year. Hollywood only produces

500 and Japan produces 400

movies a year

The Bollywood industry had a

revenue of US$ 2.5 billion in

2008, and has been growing at

approx. 9% a year. The revenue

is expected to reach US$ 4.1bn

by 2013

Revenue Growth – Bollywood

The Turnaround – “Industry” Status

One of the major policy initiatives has been the Government of India

granting the "industry" status to the entertainment sector in India including

the film sector in 2001. This allows the sector to access institutional

finance and clean credit for new projects

Before the reform, the filmmakers were hugely dependent on diamond

merchants and underworld for finances

Quite a few banks, including IDBI, Exim Bank and Bank of Baroda, are

pumping money into movie-making business

Hence, it’s one of the Key drivers for the growth in the Industry

Challenges faced by the

Industry

Piracy!!!

The Indian film industry is significantly impacted by

online piracy. A study undertaken by Motion Picture

Distributors Association (MPDAI) has put India

among the top ten countries in the world, where

online piracy is at its peak

In India, counterfeiting and piracy costs the

entertainment industry US$4billion and losses of

approximately 800,000 jobs annually.

Piracy!!!

Entertainment Tax

A crisis plaguing the industry is the distortionary

rate of entertainment tax within states in India.

For instance, in Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu,

the tax rate is low. However, this has not been

the case with the rest of the states in India.

Content Regulation

A long-standing debate continues

amongst the industry members on

regulation of content. Some of the

issues that need to be addressed in

this sphere include:

Should there be a content regulator or

should the industry be allowed self-

regulation under a broad framework?

Content

One of the problems is that younger generations sometimes find the

stories a bit predictable, and get bored of similar tales.

Future of the Industry

What’s in store for Bollywood…

By 2040, Hollywood (Los

Angeles) is forecasted to

remain the largest filmed

entertainment cluster. However,

Bollywood may close the gap

significantly to become the

second largest cluster.

What’s in store for Bollywood… Bollywood company tie-ups/collaborations

(Corporatization)

Reliance Big Entertainment signed a deal worth US$ 1.2 billion with Steven Spielberg’s ‘Dream Works SKG’ to produce 36 films for the next 6 years

Reliance also acquired around 200 theatres in 28 locations in North America to screen Bollywood and other regional movies from India

Walt Disney has invested around US$ 324 million in a deal with Yash Raj Films.

Ramesh Sippy Entertainment has collaborated with Warner Bros.


The Hollywood Connect

Bollywood to Hollywood

Anil Kapoor in ‘Slum Dog Millionaire’ and later in ’24’

Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in ’Pink Panther 2’ with

Steve Martin and ‘The Last Legion’ with Colin Firth

Hollywood to Bollywood

Ben Kingsley in Teen Patti (Three Cards)

Sylvester Stallone in ‘Kambakht Ishq’

Jennifer Chambers directed ‘Hiss’


Better Content

Once known for their gimmick flicks and illogical story line, the whole

genre of Indian movies are transforming into something much more

substantial

Breaking the Conventions

Another aspect undergoing a marked change is the resurgence of

actors that may or may not be good looking but are very fine actors in

themselves indeed
