  • Use and Abuse of Female Body in Popular Hindi Films: a Semiotic Analysis of Item Songs
    Use and Abuse of Female Body in Popular Hindi Films: A Semiotic analysis of Item Songs *Dr. G. K. Sahu Assistant Professor Dept. of Mass Communication Aligarh Muslim University Aligarh- 202002 & **Sana Abbas Research Scholar Dept. of Mass Communication Aligarh Muslim University Aligarh-202002 India Abstract The item songs have become an important element of Bollywood movies. Women are featured as a commodity, only to satisfy male urge and their bodies are featured in a way as if they are meant for male consumption. In an environment where a plethora of movies are releasing every year, putting a peppy item song in a movie, is a good trick to gain the attention of viewers . Brazen lyrics are used to enhance the popularity of these songs. Many established film makers in the industry are using this trick to gain huge financial returns. They are attracting and engaging audiences by using as well as abusing female body in their films. The paper makes an attempt to analyze the item songs by employing semiotic method to examine the use and abuse of female body in Hindi films. Key Words: Hindi Films, Item Songs, Female Body, Use & Abuse, Portrayal, Commoditization. www.ijellh.com 14 Introduction Cinema and dance have had a long history of engagement. Cinema enlisted dance from its very beginnings – the spectacular display of movement. The shared investment in movement ensured a spontaneous intermediality (transgression of boundaries) between early cinema and dance. Songs with dance have always played a crucial role in Hindi movies. The role of song and its demand changed with the entry of „item songs‟.

  • 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.

    Kervan – International Journal of Afro-Asiatic Studies n. 21 (2017) Item Girls and Objects of Dreams: Why Indian Censors Agree to Bold Scenes in Bollywood Films Tatiana Szurlej The article presents the social background, which helped Bollywood film industry to develop the so-called “item numbers”, replace them by “dream sequences”, and come back to the “item number” formula again. The songs performed by the film vamp or the character, who takes no part in the story, the musical interludes, which replaced the first way to show on the screen all elements which are theoretically banned, and the guest appearances of film stars on the screen are a very clever ways to fight all the prohibitions imposed by Indian censors. Censors found that film censorship was necessary, because the film as a medium is much more popular than literature or theater, and therefore has an impact on all people. Indeed, the viewers perceive the screen story as the world around them, so it becomes easy for them to accept the screen reality and move it to everyday life. That’s why the movie, despite the fact that even the very process of its creation is much more conventional than, for example, the theater performance, seems to be much more “real” to the audience than any story shown on the stage. Therefore, despite the fact that one of the most dangerous elements on which Indian censorship seems to be extremely sensitive is eroticism, this is also the most desired part of cinema. Moreover, filmmakers, who are tightly constrained, need at the same time to provide pleasure to the audience to get the invested money back, so they invented various tricks by which they manage to bypass censorship.

  • The Changing Economy of Sexual Desire in Hindi Cinema: Cinematic Interventions by Women Directors Women
    46 The Changing Economy of Vivekananda Journal of Research January - June 2021, Vol. 10, Issue 1, 46-57 Sexual Desire in Hindi Cinema: ISSN 2319-8702(Print) ISSN 2456-7574(Online) Cinematic Interventions by Peer Reviewed Refereed Journal © Vivekananda Institute of Professional Studies Women Directors http://www.vips.edu/vjr.php Kusha Tiwari Abstract Films are a powerful medium and practice involving both art and enterprise. As much as films are a pervasive and potent art form, they are also a business enterprise that provides pleasure, escape, illusion and entertainment with the purpose of making profit. The dominant trends in cinema, all over the world, have developed along complex dynamics of ‘voyeurism’, representation of the body (primarily female) as the object of desire. The present paper aims to analyze the emergence of a counter trend where a new wave of women directors, in Hindi cinema, have completely overturned the ways in which desire (female) is portrayed with the desiring subject as female. Films made by women directors open a whole new world of female experience of sexuality, bonding and relationships not subjected to the controlling male agency of narration. In this context, the paper analyzes the work of three women directors – Deepa Mehta, Shonali Bose and Alankrita Shrivastava who through their groundbreaking films: Fire (1996), Water (2005), Margarita with a Straw (2014) and Lipstick Under My Burkha (2016) are playing a catalytic role in changing the economy of sexual desire in Hindi Cinema. These films challenge and dismantle the views around the female body as an object that needs to be protected (something that has been the pivotal action concern of many Hindi films in the 1980s and 90s).
