and Modern Cinema

2. Ancient cinema
 The origin of Indian cinema
is closely related to ancient
rituals andseasonal
festivities of the country.
 The traditional account in
Bharataʹs NatyaShastra
gives a divine origin to
Indian cinema, attributing
it to the Natyaveda,the
holy book of dramaturgy
created by Lord Brahma.

3.  The history of ancient Indian cinema dates back to the Vedic
age. cinema in its rudiment form in ancient India was very
popular with the Vedic people. It is believed that the
theatrical culture in India originated in the times of Rig Veda.
 Cinema in ancient India of course played a major role in the
over all enrichment of Indian tradition, culture, artistry and
creativity

4. Modern Cinema
 The modern Indian theatre started to grow more in the 1850s as the
theatre enthusiasts started to perform their own play on different
languages which were based on western style.
 It passed to Bombay and to many North as well as in South Indian states.
These new form of the Indian theatre started to grow at the cost of
extinction of other traditional form of theatre.

5.  Modern Indian cinema developed due to
the change in the socio political set up in
India. Theatre before the independence
of India was primarily a weapon to
protest against the "British Raj".
 However it is certainly not an
overstatement to say that the two
hundred years of British colonialism
brought the Indian theatre into a direct
contact with the western theatre.
 The harmonious blend of eastern and
western culture gave birth to a rather
modern form of Indian cinema.
 Realistic approach and naturalistic
presentation marked the change in the
thematic development of Indian cinema.
