Bombay is a 1995 Indian Tamil-language Indian romantic drama film[2] directed by Mani Ratnam, starring Arvind Swami and Manisha Koirala in the lead. The film tells the story of an inter-religious family in Bombay (now Mumbai) before and during the Bombay riots, which took place between December 1992 and January 1993 after the demolition of the Babri Masjid led to religious tensions between Hindu and Muslim communities. It is the second in Ratnam's trilogy of films that depict human relationships against a background of Indian politics, including Roja (1992) and Dil Se. (1998).[3] The film was dubbed in Hindi, Telugu and Malayalam with the same title.
Eventually becoming one of the highest-grossing films of Tamil cinema, the film was well-received both critically and commercially, and it was screened at many international film festivals including the Philadelphia Film Festival in 1996 where it was an audience favourite. The film's soundtrack earned composer A. R. Rahman his fourth consecutive Filmfare Best Music Director Award (Tamil), and is considered one of greatest soundtracks of all time.[4] However, the film caused considerable controversy upon release in India and abroad for its depiction of inter-religious relations and religious riots. The film was banned in Singapore and Malaysia upon release.
In July 2005, a book on the film by Lalitha Gopalan was published by BFI Modern Classics, looking at the film's production, the several issues it covered, and its impact upon release in India and abroad.[5][6] The film was ranked among the top 20 Indian films in the British Film Institute's rankings.[7]

Plot[edit]
Shekhar is the son of an orthodox Hindu Narayana Pillai living in a coastal village in Tamil Nadu. A journalism student studying in Bombay, Shekhar visits home to be with his family. On one of his return trips, he notices Shaila Banu, a Muslim schoolgirl in the village and falls in love with her. Initially shy, Shaila seeks to distance herself from Shekhar, but after frequent run-ins, and days of pursuit, Shaila begins to like Shekhar. Eventually, they both fall in love.
Shekhar meets Shaila's father Basheer and reveals he wants to marry her. Basheer throws him out, citing difference in religions. Shekhar reveals his interest to his father Pillai, who becomes angry, meets Basheer and gets into an abusive argument with him. Upset with rejection from both families, Shekhar leaves the village and returns to Bombay. Through Shaila's friend, he sends her a letter and a ticket for her to travel to Bombay. However, she is undecided; Basheer comes to know of her regular letters from Shekhar and plans to get her married immediately to stop this relation growing further. Left with no choice, Shaila leaves the village with the ticket sent by Shekhar and reaches Bombay. They get married and lead a happy life. Shaila conceives and delivers twins who are named Kabir Narayan and Kamal Basheer. The twins are raised in both religions. Shekhar continues to work as a journalist, while Shaila takes care of home and children. After six years, Shekhar and Shaila settle down in their life and begin the process of re-establishing a relationship with their respective families.

Production[edit]
During the recording of the background score of Mani Ratnam's Thiruda Thiruda (1993), the Bombay riots broke out. Mani Ratnam planned on making a film in Malayalam about a boy who gets lost in the riots, and requested M. T. Vasudevan Nair to write the script. This was supposed to be Mani Ratnam's second Malayalam film after Unaru (1985). But since the idea did not materialise, he decided to make it in Tamil as the film that would later be titled Bombay.[11]
Mani Ratnam held a photo shoot for the film with Vikram and Manisha Koirala, but eventually did not choose Vikram as he was unwilling to remove his beard and moustache that he had grown for the production of another film during the period, Vikraman's Pudhiya Mannargal (1994).[12] According to Ratnam, Bombay was not originally planned as a political film: 'It was a phase India was going through and these things affected me and found their way into my work.'[13] Koirala's voice was dubbed by Rohini.[14] Nassar, a Muslim in real life, was cast as the father of Arvind Swamy's character (a Hindu) while Kitty, a Hindu in real life, was cast as the father of Koirala's character (a Muslim). Ratnam deliberately cast them in those roles as a statement.[15][10]
When Ratnam approached cinematographer Rajiv Menon to shoot Bombay, he described it as a film about the riots and said that he (Menon) needed to '(make what came before) the riots as beautiful as possible'. So, Menon suggested shooting in the rains to achieve the effect. They shot the interiors of homes in Pollachi in Tamil Nadu and the exteriors were shot in Kasaragod, and Kannur village in Kerala.[16] The song 'Kannalane' was shot at Thirumalai Nayakkar Mahal,[17] and 'Uyire' was shot at Bekal Fort.[18] The demolition of the Babri Masjid was shown onscreen through newspaper headlines and photographs, as the Censor Board did not want the makers to show the actual destruction.[19][20]
Themes[edit]
Mani Ratnam described Bombay as 'a positive film about communal harmony'. He said the Bombay riots were not the main focus of the film, but 'a helpless, innocent man caught up in violence not of his own making.'[10]
Release[edit]
Bombay was released on 10 March 1995.[21] The Telugu-dubbed version, Bombayi, was released on the same day.[22]
Box office[edit]
The Hindi version of the film grossed ₹140 million (equivalent to ₹620 million or US$9.0 million in 2018), as reported by Box Office India, making it one of the year's top ten highest-grossing Hindi films.[23]
Critical reception[edit]
Ananda Vikatan, in a review dated 19 March 1995, rated the film 53 out of 100.[24] Anand Kannan, writing for Planet Bollywood, said, 'I wouldn't call this the best of Mani Ratnam [..] But good acting, a socially conscious theme and a quick pace make the movie well worth watching.'[25] In 1996, American critic James Berardinelli rated the film 3.5 out of 4 and said, 'Largely because of their limited North American appeal and dubious quality, Indian movies are routinely ignored by distributors [..] Occasionally, however, a worthwhile picture causes enough people to take notice that it becomes a favorite on the international film festival circuit. One such movie is Bombay, the fourteenth feature from celebrated director Mani Rathnam.' He concluded, 'Director Rathnam has shown great courage in making this picture (bombs were thrown at his house after it opened in India), which speaks with a voice that many will not wish to hear. Bombay recalls how forceful a motion picture can be.'[26]
Bangalore Mirror noted that the film had similarities with the 1990 film Come See the Paradise.[27]
