The heroes are not supermen with extraordinary ambition, who have to rise from poverty, tame the rich girl and fight the evil landlord, but ordinary men and women acting under the pressures of ordinary living. |  | | Quarterly e-zine devoted to "revealing the heart of Asian Cinema" features a different theme with each issue: ghosts and the supernatural, Peking Opera, gamblers, Taoist priests. |

 | | Mother India is a film that I saw with my family in 1958 when I was a girl of 11 and I still remember the outer suburban cinema where we saw it. |  | | For a Lankan who has spent her scholarly youth studying the largely trashy Lankan cinema, with nothing remotely like a Mother India to boast, it is a great thrill to see this Indian film acknowledged by the BFI's prestigious Film Classics series. |  | | This link between the cinema and the narrative of the nation is a persistent feature of popular Indian cinema. |

FILM exhibition is without doubt one of the most under-studied, under-theorized and unappreciated areas in the study of cinema in India. |  | | The history of exhibition can be read as a crucial articulation where the cinema is mapped out on the urban space of Madras (Hughes 1996). |

| | Ritwik Ghatak |
 | | My own response to this issue of Ghatak's status within Indian cinema is merely to frame the competing views on his worth that exist within the discourse of this cinema and its history. |  | | The tendency, both in and outside India, to valourise the cinema of Ray as representative of everyday life in India or as representative of Indian cinema in general, is problematic. |  | | It seems that despite Ghatak's claim to have been drawn to the cinema by the size of the audience he could reach, as Satyajit Ray has noted, Ritwik had the misfortune to be largely ignored by the Bengali film public in his lifetime (36). |

 | | Even when scholars argued that Indian films must be understood in relation to their social contexts and cultural traditions, the substance of their arguments concerning the articulation of society and cinema usually came down to an analysis of ‘narrative structures’ (Chakravarty 1989 and 1993) or reduced to a ‘reading’ of specific film texts (Nandy 1998). |  | | We usually assume that the growth of cinema in India over the 20th century was predominantly an urban phenomenon. |  | | The history of film exhibition, languishing at the moment in every city and town of India, is just waiting to be investigated. |
