India’ s film industry has in the past been connected with dubious funding from underworld sources. But it enjoys a healthier reputation these days as wealthy corporate ventures look to participate in this industry. Once widely associated with cash flows from the Indian mafia, Bollywood is shaking off this image as India’ s film industry continues to become an increasingly corporate affair. Sacks of black money have been replaced with bank loans and private equity funding, as changes in regulations have allowed the industry to semiprofessionalize itself in recent years. New funds are launching in the market, as they look to tap investor interest in the sector, which is growing annually by more than 11 per cent. "The industry funded by the mafia is long over," says Sandeep Bhargava, the chief investment adviser for Third Eye Cinema Fund. It was not until 2001 that the Indian government recognised film as an official industry, which was the first step towards organised funding. Before that, financial institutions were not allowed to lend money to finance films. Money to shoot a film had to be raised from friends and family, among other sources. This led to widespread speculation that Bollywood productions were funded by the criminal underworld. India’ s film industry was worth 125.3 billion rupees last year, up from 112.4 billion rupees the previous year, according to a report by KP-MG and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry.
