About
Bollywood is one of the world's largest film industries, offering a rich lens through which to examine themes of identity, politics, and popular culture. Join Dr. Kajri Jain from the University of Toronto for a talk on the significance of Bollywood as a national and global cultural force. Dr. Jain will offer insight on how engaging with Bollywood deepens our understanding of South Asian histories and diasporic experiences, while also highlighting its value within broader cultural and educational contexts such as the university classroom. The talk will feature selected Bollywood film posters from the collections at ROM. An on-stage conversation, along with a public Q&A period led by ROM curator Dr Deepali Dewan will follow.
