With a focus on the responses of upwardly-mobile, yet lower-to-middle class urban women to state-sponsored entertainment serials, Mankekar demonstrates how television in India has profoundly shaped womens place in the family, community, and nation, and the crucial role it has played in the realignment of class, caste, consumption, religion, and politics.Mankekar examines both entertainment narratives and advertisements designed to convey particular ideas about the nation.

Throughout her study, Mankekar remains attentive to the tumultuous historical and political context in the midst of which these programs integrationalist messages are transmitted, to the cultural diversity of the viewership, and to her own role as ethnographer. In an enlightening epilogue she describes the effect of satellite television and transnatio ...
