Masala (film genre) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Masala film
Masala films of Indian cinema are those that mix genres in one work. Typically these films freely mix action, comedy, romance, and drama or melodrama. They tend to be musicals that include songs filmed in picturesque locations. The genre is named after the masala, a mixture of spices in Indian cuisine.〔Nelmes, Jill. (''An introduction to film studies'' ). p. 367.〕 According to ''The Hindu'', masala is the most popular genre of Indian cinema.〔 *(Masala v. Genre ) - ''The Hindu''〕 ==History== The origin of this genre is generally credited to the filmmaker Manmohan Desai and screenwriter duo Salim-Javed who very successfully exploited the genre in the 1970s and 1980s. It helped establish many leading actors as superstars such as Dharmendra, Amitabh Bachchan, Ajith Kumar, Rajnikanth, Chiranjeevi, Mithun Chakrabarty, actress Sridevi received stardom in her early Bollywood career with Masala movies and more recently, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar and Joseph Vijay . This style is used very often in Hindi and South Indian films as it helps make them appeal to a broad variety of viewers. Famous masala filmmakers include Salim-Javed, David Dhawan, Anees Bazmee and Farah Khan in Hindi cinema, and S.S. Rajamouli, Puri Jagannath in Telugu cinema and V. Somashekhar , K. S. R. Das , A.Harsha and Om Prakash Rao in Kannada cinema and S. Shankar, Hari and K. S. Ravikumar in Tamil cinema. The "Curry Western" trend that began with ''Sholay'' (1975) also falls under the ''masala'' genre. Curry Western is a play on the term Spaghetti Western. Beyond Indian cinema, Danny Boyle's Academy Award-winning film ''Slumdog Millionaire'' (2008), based on Vikas Swarup's Boeke Prize winning novel ''Q & A'' (2005), has been described by several reviewers as a "masala" movie, due to the way the film combines "familiar raw ingredients into a feverish masala" and culminates in "the romantic leads finding each other." This is due to the influence of the Bollywood ''masala'' genre on the film. The influence of Bollywood ''masala'' films can also be seen in Western musical films. Baz Luhrmann stated that his successful musical film ''Moulin Rouge!'' (2001) was directly inspired by Bollywood musicals.
