Author: Sudha Rajagopalan
Rajagopalan's study delves into the dynamics between Soviet state policies and the public's reception of foreign cinema, particularly Indian films. Through a combination of ethnographic research, archival analysis, and film journal reviews, she illustrates how Indian films became a form of cultural negotiation. While Soviet authorities initially promoted films with ideological alignments, local cinema managers recognized the public's preference for Indian popular cinema, leading to a more diverse film selection in theaters.
The book also highlights the role of Soviet film critics in attempting to elevate public taste, often clashing with the widespread appeal of Bollywood's escapist narratives. Despite these tensions, Indian films offered Soviet viewers a window into a world of romance and spectacle, providing a form of escapism and a means to reflect on their own societal norms.
