  • Past Meets Present: Monsoon Wedding Redux

    Past Meets Present: Monsoon Wedding Redux

    Postcolonial Text, Vol 13, No 4 (2018) Past Meets Present: Monsoon Wedding Redux Aparajita De University of the District of Columbia Cosmopolitanism, as a conceptual ideal, can refer to educated, well traveled, minority elites from postcolonial nations who may, apparently, be associated with liberal and plural moorings. Presumably, this kind of an understanding does not repudiate either rootedness or openness regarding cultural and local differences. On the one hand, it holds the promise of promoting a sense of universal consciousness expanding spheres of belonging. On the other, it can extol the travels of migrants conflating both contexts of their travels along with communities who travel. In the latter situation of the cosmopolitan ideal, this utopic sense of belonging can espouse an uncritical classlessness. Could those elitist and apparently inclusive enclaves of belonging mean a borderless, or, at least a receptive belonging within a wider community? Mira Nair's Monsoon Wedding, recast by Berkeley Repertory Theatre (2017) as a musical, provoke ruminations on the film released in 2001. Marriages are never out of season, and both the film and its musical remake employ this universalizing trope. It is, however, the interactive space or the lack thereof between prominent central characters and non- specific, marginal characters that occasions revisiting the film. While the wedding trope is literally symptomatic of the week-long celebrations associated with South Asian cultures, metaphorically, it symbolizes the wedding of two different spaces that may be envisioned, but can never occur. It is this impossible yet teasing possibility of the metaphorical marriage that I am more interested in exploring.

Often working with large casts of actors—and many featuring on screen simultaneously, with dialogues frequently overlapping one another and given little hierarchy in the sound design—US director Robert Altman (1925–2006) came to be associated with a signature style despite working in a range of genres, mostly in order to subvert their conventions. The adjective ‘Altmanesque’ has come to apply to this aesthetic, one in which much is also left to chance, with actors given space to improvise and create their own characters within a larger tableau or ‘mural’ (del Mar Azcona 142).

  • Wedding Customs in Monsoon Wedding Judson Michael Edwards

    Wedding Customs in Monsoon Wedding Judson Michael Edwards

    Wedding Customs in Monsoon Wedding Judson Michael Edwards Course: English 230 Instructor: Ms. Andree Cosby Essay Type: Literary Analysis Monsoon Wedding is a movie by Mira Nair “set in modern-day Delhi,” and falls under the interesting category of “Punjabi comedy” (Howe WE37). Nair herself is from Delhi, which has been a Punjabi stronghold since 1947, when Muslims left the city for the newly formed country of Pakistan (WE37). The storyline is based on an arranged marriage between the characters of Aditi and Hemant: two upper middle class Punjabis. Punjabi weddings include a great deal of ancient traditions, many of which are apparent in Monsoon Wedding. This analysis will cover the Punjabi marriage traditions that are most apparent in Monsoon Wedding. Their families prearrange Aditi and Hemant’s marriage. Although they have never met, they are not being forced into marrying each other. At the chunni chandana ceremony, Aditi’s aunt even says, “Give them some privacy. I met C.L. only once, we got married right away!” It is their choice, and they seem to be completely comfortable with it. They trust their families to make a good match for them because “family [is] an important factor in the selection of a spouse” (Kapadia 136). Throughout the movie, it is apparent that there is a conflict between traditional Punjabi customs and more modern western ones. In one scene, Aditi’s father, Lalit, and the wedding planner P.K. Dubey, get into a bit of an argument over the color of the wedding tent. Lalit wanted a traditional colorful Punjabi tent, but Dubey has already put up a western-style white tent.
