 The Bollywood box office is on the verge of its biggest takeover yet and
the prediction spells gloom for the British film industry. Faced with the
inevitable, Paul Brett and Paul Howson are in Mumbai to take evasive action.
Their brief: promoting British cinema abroad and increase cooperation with
the entertainment industry in foreign countries. ‘‘We are here to find ways
to bring more British films in India, explore possibilities of organising
training for film professionals, revitalise the British Council’s
programming, and get more British programming on Indian TV,’’ explains
Howson, who will also travel to Chennai and New Delhi this week.
