- This 308-page monograph is the first sustained examination of a recent new genre of independent Indian films. Taking Bollywood-centric Indian film scholarship in a new direction, it focuses fully on Indian ‘Indies’ and is the outcome of 3 years of intensive research. 20 in-depth semi-structured interviews of 30-180 minutes with film directors, actors, academics and film censors were conducted across Delhi, Mumbai and Bangalore. Informed by a postcolonial theoretical framework, these interviews served as the basis for detailed case-study chapters on seminal independent Indian films and the development of an original theoretical paradigm of a ‘meta-hegemony’ in modern Indian cinema
