North v/s South, Week 1: Tollywood Or Bollywood?

This month's theme is the good old north v/s south India debate. Each week, we'll be dissecting different aspects of this cultural divide, and our first stop is cinema. In this episode, we discuss Vijay Dinanath Chauhan and the politics of Bollywood, Vijayashanti and the surprisingly progressive beginnings of Tollywood, and the troubling gender politics that unite all Indian masala movies. Respectfully Disagree is The Swaddle Team’s very own podcast series, in which we get together to discuss and dissect the issues we passionately differ on.
