Examines the work of Hindi film director, screenwriter and producer Zoya Akhtar
From her relatively small-scale feature debut Luck By Chance (2009) to her recent premieres of Gully Boy (2019) and Made in Heaven (2019) to local and global audiences via the Berlin Film Festival and Amazon Prime Streaming services, Zoya Akhtar has become a prominent figure representing change in Bollywood. As the first collection on Akhtar, this book examines how she is contributing to a shift in one of the world's leading film industries, and through analysis of her work explores the contradictions and possibilities of the present moment in Bollywood.
