  • The 'Item Number' in Indian Cinema: Deconstructing the Paradox
    Journal of Culture, Society and Development www.iiste.org ISSN 2422-8400 An International Peer-reviewed Journal Vol.39, 2018 The ‘Item Number’ in Indian Cinema: Deconstructing the Paradox Isha Jain (Corresponding author) National Law School of India University, Bangalore, India Abstract The “item number” is a hyper-sexualised song-and-dance performance that is characteristic to mainstream Bollywood cinema. When viewed in the context of a general tendency towards the censorship of public depictions of sexualized women in other spheres of the Indian polity, the ubiquity and popularity of item numbers reflects a confounding cultural paradox. The aim of this article is to deconstruct this paradox, by identifying the narrative structures and plot devices employed by film-makers to market these performances without suffering the disapproval of either the Indian State apparatus or the purportedly prudish Indian cinema- goer. Introduction The Indian State, through both its formal and informal centres of power, continues to burden the Indian woman with the charge of guarding national pride, culture, and morality.1 The defiling of the Indian woman, synonymous with her sexualisation, is the defiling of India. This parallel is evident in the title of “Mother India”, a 1957 film centred around a de-sexualised, self-sacrificial female protagonist intended to be emblematic of both the ideal Indian woman and of India herself.2 Yet, the Indian film industry has succeeded at carving out a niche for the commodification and sale of female sexuality within a broader milieu characterised by the disapprobation of that very sexuality. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the “item number”,3 a hyper-sexualised cinematic performance that is both paradoxically and quintessentially Bollywood.

  • Koel Chatterjee Phd Thesis
    Bollywood Shakespeares from Gulzar to Bhardwaj: Adapting, Assimilating and Culturalizing the Bard Koel Chatterjee PhD Thesis 10 October, 2017 I, Koel Chatterjee, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 10th October, 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the patience and guidance of my supervisor Dr Deana Rankin. Without her ability to keep me focused despite my never-ending projects and her continuous support during my many illnesses throughout these last five years, this thesis would still be a work in progress. I would also like to thank Dr. Ewan Fernie who inspired me to work on Shakespeare and Bollywood during my MA at Royal Holloway and Dr. Christie Carson who encouraged me to pursue a PhD after six years of being away from academia, as well as Poonam Trivedi, whose work on Filmi Shakespeares inspired my research. I thank Dr. Varsha Panjwani for mentoring me through the last three years, for the words of encouragement and support every time I doubted myself, and for the stimulating discussions that helped shape this thesis. Last but not the least, I thank my family: my grandfather Dr Somesh Chandra Bhattacharya, who made it possible for me to follow my dreams; my mother Manasi Chatterjee, who taught me to work harder when the going got tough; my sister, Payel Chatterjee, for forcing me to watch countless terrible Bollywood films; and my father, Bidyut Behari Chatterjee, whose impromptu recitations of Shakespeare to underline a thought or an emotion have led me inevitably to becoming a Shakespeare scholar.

  • The Angry Woman of Indian Cinema - a Saga of the Marginal
    High Technology Letters ISSN NO : 1006-6748 The Angry woman of Indian Cinema - A Saga of the Marginal 1Ms. Dharna Bhatt, 2Dr. Barnali Chetia 1 Research Scholar, 2Assistant Professor 1,2Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, 1,2Indian Institute of Information Technology Vadodara, Gandhinagar, Gujarat, India Abstract In Indian cinema, the concept of anger was associated with men, popularizing the idea of 'Angry young man' not 'Angry young woman,' which in fact catapulted many male actors career to undisputed stardom. Women remained marginalized even in this sector. As per the gender stereotype of emotion, anger is associated with men. However, there are some women characters in Indian cinema whose bold portrayal of the emotion of anger has rightfully caught the eyes of the critics. This paper is an attempt to portray the anger of women in different roles- mother, wife, sister, friend, and prostitute, to name a few. This study is based on some selected 'angry' female characters of Indian cinema who were more often than not overshadowed by the 'angry' male characters. The study is qualitative in nature which follows the form of narration for analyzing the emotion of anger in women of Indian cinema. Key Words:- Emotion, Anger, Women, Marginal, Indian Cinema. I. Introduction Emotion is a conscious mental reaction (as anger or fear) subjectively experienced as strong feeling usually directed towards a specific object and typically accompanied by physiological and behavioural changes in the body. Happiness, love, fear, anger, hatred, trust, joy, grief, hurt, shame, loneliness, etc. are some terms to express Emotion. Among the above, anger is a natural emotion experienced by everyone and impossible to avoid.

The gendered interpretation of obscenity laws led stereotyping women body as obscene. Films have a very complex relationship with society. It depicts what is happening in the society; also it impacts the society in various ways. In this paper we endeavour to question the censorship which in the era of over the top platforms is becoming redundant as they are not subjected to censorship. We revisit the censorship debate through several case laws and how gradually the judiciary is also liberally interpreting the censorship laws and the evolution of jurisprudence is aimed towards establishing censorship as a restriction on the freedom of speech of speech and expression.
