Film and Politics in India: Cinematic Charisma as a Gateway to Political Power

Film and Politics in India: Cinematic Charisma as a Gateway to Political Power This book is one of the comprehensive studies about the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, where all the Chief Ministers since 1967 have been former actors. By problematising the popular misconception that Bollywood is a synecdoche of Indian cinema, this book explores the cultural history of South India through the prism of films.
