From Amitabh Bachchan's simmering Angry Young Man to Rishi Kapoor's romantic Bobby, from the gritty realism of Shyam Benegal to the middle-class comedies of Hrishikesh Mukherjee - the 1970s were a transformative decade for Hindi cinema. It was an era that saw the birth of the masala film, the rise of multi-starrers, and the emergence of parallel cinema. This decade gave us unforgettable melodies, iconic dialogues, and fashion trends that continue to inspire today. The Swinging ‘70s: Stars, Style and Substance pays tribute to this legacy.
An anthology of essays, co-edited by Editor Shantanu Ray Chaudhuri and Senior Civil Servant and Film Buff Nirupama Kotru, the book offers fresh perspectives on iconic films, uncovers lesser-known gems, and provides a nuanced understanding of how cinema both reflected and shaped the turbulent seventies. Celebrate the book launch with an engaging panel discussion followed by a special performance by Musician-Filmmaker Neha Karode presenting a curated selection of beloved songs that defined the era.
Join us for an evening of nostalgia as we revisit the golden age of Hindi cinema.
