First, read a passage and answer the questions based on it. You are required to select your answers based on the contents of the passage and opinion of the author only. The overwhelming vote given by the greater part of the public has so far been in favour of films which pass the time easily and satisfy that part of our imagination which depends on the more obvious kind of daydreams. We make up for what we secretly regard as our deficiencies by watching the stimulating adventures of the other people who are stronger, more effective, or more beautiful than we are. The conventional stars act out our daydreams for us in a constant succession of exciting situations set in the open spaces, in the jungles or in the underworld of great cities which abounds in crime and violence. We would not dare to be in such situations but the situations are very exciting to watch since our youth is being spent in day-to-day routine of school, office or home.

Who funds Ildian Industry, Why it matters ? Using data on listed lnidan firms from the mid-1980s to the 1990s, several issues relating to lndian indutry were investigated. One aspect then wast the extremely limited extent to which promoters and entrepreeneurs actually owned shares in the various compaines they had control of .
