Rockumentary - Evolution of Indian Rock
Rock music in India was almost completely unknown following independence in 1947. Rock culture was perceived as "Counter Cultural.' But in the 1960's , especially following the Beatles visit to India with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, that preconception flipped.
This film tells the story of how Rock 'n Roll, a western genre, became popular in India despite stiff cultural resistance from the country's rich classical heritage.
