   well advancements in technology
   -> use of cellphones, lights
   
   society's acceptance of drugs
   -> the many references and scenes
   
   society's interest in controversial movies
   -> michael moore for examle
   
   Emancipation of Women
   Major improvements in hygiene and health (and hence, beauty!)
   Widespread sexual liberation
   Economic egalitarianism - rise of wealth in Western Civilization
   An increasingly educated population
   Amazing technological advancements and inventions
   The liberation (legal, social, economic, et al) of various minorities (people of color, g**s, physically handicapped)
   General increase in use of drugs
   Acceptance of and desensitization to violence in polite society
   Decline of manners, in general
   Disinegration of the nuclear family
   Rootlessness of a highly mobile society
   Alienation of the individual in an industrial society
   Shift to visual stimulation from verbal or written word
   (Marilyn Monroe and Rock Hudson from Shakespeare and Tolstoy)
   
   
   
   1950’and 60’s saw the themes being very idealistic - fresh from Independence where big dams were built of which heroes were engineers mostly on development backdrop or historical /family dramas preaching high and moral ethics.
   
   1970's brought angry young man to the fore …with socialistic / right demanding hero.And there was a distinction of masala and parallel films which produced many artistes like Smita patil, Shabana azmi, Om puri,and Nasheerudin Shaw
   
   
   
   1980’s brought the advent of latest technological advancements in the movie .Also Masala and art films shared the space.
   
   1990"s saw the themes where the cinema had to fight the onslaught of cable tv invasion.So in order to bring the audience to halls,big budget and
   cinematically excellant films were made.
   
   
   
   The New Millenium has seen themes of violence and skin show and some sensible (" I,Me Myself attitude " of the generation (Dil Chahta Hai kinds)) also stories based on rampant corruptionin the society and on variety of subjects like AIDS etc.
   
   Art /serious /parallel films ..small budgets films are being made for multiplexes.
   And Shahrukh Khan –Karan Johar formula vooing the new found audience ie NRIs with the global Indian living all across the continents (buying tkts in foreign currencies ) .
   Now the multiple star cast + masala + comedy seems to stay here …other than these films Mahesh / Pooja Bhatts –low budget+ new faces + skin show themes +some sleaze+ some good music also sell.
   
   Still that one film which leaves the audience spell bound and speechless is yet to come?
   though Lagaan...was good.
   
   
   
   hope it helps
   
   good luck with the project
