Abstract

Abstract -This research aims to unravel the dominance of Hollywood cinematography in Bollywood by exploring its historical and contemporary causes, analysing the specific cinematic elements borrowed from Hollywood, examining the impact on narrative structure and visual aesthetics, and exploring the cultural implications of this convergence. The study employs a thematic analysis approach to identify and analyse key themes, comparing Bollywood films before and after the influence of Hollywood cinematography and using a cultural analysis lens to examine the cultural implications. The research findings suggest that the dominance of Hollywood cinematography in Bollywood can be attributed to historical factors, such as the adoption of narrative techniques, genres, and cinematic styles from Hollywood films. Contemporary reasons include technological advancements, globalisation, changing audience expectations, the availability of advanced technology and Co-productions between Hollywood and Bollywood. This research provides insights into the complex dynamics between Hollywood and Bollywood and highlights the cultural implications of this convergence in global cinema. Despite Hollywood's influence, Bollywood retains its cultural identity by infusing Indian traditions, music, and dance.
