The virtual addiction of Muslim Hausa youth to Indian films has a long history, which stretched to the first Indian films screen in northern Nigerian cinemas in the 1960s. The cultural convergence between what the Hausa see as representations of Indian cultural behavior – in terms of social mores, dressing, social interaction – all served to create what they perceive as a convergence between Indian ‘culure’ and Muslim Hausa culture. This paper traces the evolutionary attachment of the Hausa to Indian films and culture. In particular, it traces the various ways through Hausa youth use various devices to adopt, or adapt Indian popoular culture to suit their own re-worked creative pursuits. As a study of transnational fandom, it provides vital insight into how cultural spaces are collapsed, despite spatial and religious spaces.

跨文化联系

穆斯林豪萨族青年对印度电影的虚拟成瘾已有很长的历史，可追溯到1960年代尼日利亚北部电影院中的首部印度电影放映。豪萨人认为印度文化行为的代表之间的文化融合（就社交习俗，穿着，社交互动而言）都有助于建立他们认为印​​度“文化”与穆斯林豪萨文化之间的融合。本文追溯了豪萨族对印度电影和文化的进化依恋。特别是，它追溯了豪萨族青年通过各种方式采用各种方式来采用或适应印度的大众文化以适应自己重新创作的追求的各种方式。作为对跨国同伴关系的研究，它提供了关于文化空间如何崩溃的重要见解，尽管存在空间和宗教空间。
