Hey Puja..even though both of our genres are totally different they share some similarities with the whole Asian thing and how they reflect the social world by moving away from typical storylines and stereotypes.
3 Positive comments:
-Ur migrain analysis is really detailed and interesting. You've gone into a lot of depth which has meant ur following posts have also been of a high standard
-You've post about bollywood being 'uncool' is so true and that's something u should explore more in terms of audience.
-Overall, it's a different and sophisticated choice and it's already coming together really well.

1 Negative comment:
Explore SHEP more cos' there's loads about Asian representation issues in terms of social and historical context especially.

Good luck..Pip

Heya,
well your study is similar to mine with the whole Asian concept even though yours is focused on Bollywood. I think this makes your work even more interesting because it's so different from the rest..Your migrain analysis is very detailed & shows the amount of depth you've already gone into..it would be good if you went into more detail with the wider context as your text explores many social issues as you've stated..good luck, RaSs..x
