  • Masculinity in Metro-Sexuality Expressed in Indian Television Advertisement for Men's Personal Care Products Falguni Shelani & Dr
    Oakbrook Business Review Vol. 4, No. 2, October, 2018, pp. 25-32 Masculinity in Metro-sexuality expressed in Indian television advertisement for men's personal care products Falguni Shelani & Dr. Neelima Ruparel Abstract Skin care which was predominantly an exclusive category for women is no more an exclusive category as the globalised trend of metro- sexuality is catching up the Indian urban men too. Men's grooming products category which includes skin care is currently of size INR 16,800 crore and is expected to grow at a 45% CAGR (Compounded annual growth rate) as per ASSOCHAM report.. Emami, the initiator of men's skincare products, started Emami Fair & Handsome in 2005, and since than many companies came up with similar products. In India men's skincare category is as nascent as thirteen years but due to rising disposable income and increased visibility to metro-sexual culture, this category is expected to grow at a double digit rate. Shaving products are major contributor of men's grooming category followed by deodorants and skincare & hair-care. As men's skincare is a new category and not much explored, it becomes desirable to explore. 'Metro- sexual', the buzzword is a combination of two words, metropolitan and sexual, and was coined by Mark Simpson in 1994. Metrosexual refers to men living in urban area, attracted to women sexually and spending good amount of time and money for his appearance. Whereas Masculinity is a characteristic of men. Masculinity is not a natural attribute but a social quality and is the result of culture. Traditionally skincare is a feminine attribute;although metro-sexual phenomena is spreading quickly in Indian market and it is felt that usage of skincare products might challenge traditional masculinity.

  • Voiceless Heroines: Use of Dubbed Voices in Tamil Movies*
    Asian Women March 2017, Vol. 33, No. 1, pp. 73-98 Voiceless Heroines: Use of Dubbed Voices in Tamil Movies* Premalatha Karupiah Universiti Sains Malaysia, Malaysia 1 Abstract Scholars have argued that sound in films has not been given much theoretical attention. Without understanding the use of sound in films, a comprehensive knowledge of the meaning and ideology of movies is not possible. This paper explores how heroines’ voices are presented in Tamil movies and provides empirical evidence about gender inequality in the aural practices of Tamil movies. The data for this study came from a content analysis of 40 Tamil movies produced in India (1961–2012), 8 websites related to voice dubbing in Tamil movies, and 4 YouTube videos. The term “dubbed voice” refers to the practice of using a voice-actor or dubbing artist to deliver the dialogue while someone else acts in the movie. In Tamil movies, this trend has been common since the 1980s among female actors in lead roles but not among lead male actors. Even though the inability to speak Tamil is one of the reasons for this practice, it does not explain why female stars mostly use a dubbed voice. The male actors–including non-native speakers–often use their own voice. The use of a few select dubbing artists to lend their voices to heroines limits the type of female voices heard (from lead roles) in Tamil movies and narrowly defines the types of women’s voices that are associated with someone who is attractive or good. Therefore, Tamil movies are limiting not only the looks that are showcased on the screen but also the female voices heard in these movies.

  • Do Hindi Cinema & Television Serials Propagate Caste Stereotypes
    The International Journal of Indian Psychology ISSN 2348-5396 (e) | ISSN: 2349-3429 (p) Volume 3, Issue 3, No.3, DIP: 18.01.055/20160303 ISBN: 978-1-365-03419-0 http://www.ijip.in | April - June, 2016 Do Hindi Cinema & Television Serials Propagate Caste Stereotypes through Surnames of Characters: A Content Analysis Rakesh Kumar Maurya1* ABSTRACT Caste affiliated surnames are very common in India. In fact, they convey a lot of caste stereotypes about the bearer. This is a subtle way of practicing caste based identities and related discriminations. The current study is a content analysis of the surnames of leading fictional characters in Hindi TV serials and movies to see if TV and cinema propagate caste stereotypes through surnames of their fictional characters. The result shows excessive use of upper caste affiliated surnames used both in TV serials and cinema while surnames affiliated to lower castes have negligible presence in these programmes. Keywords: Stereotype, Caste stereotype, Surname, Television, Hindi Cinema, Media. The word ‘Caste’ is of European origin and it was first used by Purtgies travellers to India in the middle of fifteenth century. This word originated from Spanish word ‘Casta’ which means ‘lineage’ or ‘race’ or ‘a group of people having hereditary quality’.(Srinivas, 1968; Ghurye, 1932). Caste can be defined as hereditary endogamous group, having a common name, common traditional occupation, common culture, relatively rigid in matters of mobility, distinctiveness of status and forming a single homogeneous community. In India, it is a system of social stratification which divides communities into thousands of endogamous hereditary groups called Jati.
