Specific references will be made to the cinematic portrayal of female boxers and wrestlers in Bollywood to argue that female boxers and wrestlers are portrayed as ‘masculine’. However, the sportswoman’s assertion of her femininity in a space exclusively occupied by men leads to ‘gender trouble’. To enunciate this argument two biopics, Mary Kom (2014) and Dangal (2016), will be analyzed. It would be observed that when a female boxer/wrestler tries to reinforce her identity, she is either subjected to criticism or faces failure. However, the argument that sportswomen are termed as ‘masculine’ does not necessarily imply that female athletes aren’t objects of the male gaze.

  • Father's Character Analysis in Dangal
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2018, Vol. 8, No. 2, 282-287 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2018.02.014 D DAVID PUBLISHING Father’s Character Analysis in Dangal XU Jian-gang, ZHENG Xiao-yu China Three Gorgeous University, Yichang, China A work’s theme, significance, thought and influence are embodied by the characters’ personality and behavior. Thus, the protagonists appear to be particularly important. They represent the main ideas of the work and the author’s intention. Dangal (English: Wrestling competition) is a 2016 Indian Hindi-language biographical sports drama film directed by Nitesh Tiwari. Produced by Walt Disney Pictures, Aamir Khan Productions and UTV Motion Pictures, it stars Aamir Khan as Mahavir Singh Phogat, an amateur wrestler, who trains his daughters Geeta Phogat and Babita Kumari to be world-class wrestlers, both of who go on to win medals at the 2010 Commonwealth Games. The paper will enhance people’s comprehension to the Indian film—Dangal and the paternal love under the patriarchal domination through the analysis of the father Mahavir Singh Phogat. Keywords: Dangal, paternity, paternal love Introduction Aamir Khan, played the father Mahavir Singh Phogat in Dangal, is the hallmark of Indian film. His several representative works all point out problems and speak for the people. For example, Three Idiots’ satire to the educational system, P. K’s query and criticism to Indian religion and Rang De Basanti’s denounce to Indian political system. His new work—Dangal still reflects the social problems of India. The main idea of Dangal: Mahavir Singh Phogat (Aamir Khan) is a former amateur wrestler and national champion based in Balali, a village in Haryana.
