  • 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.

  • Will Chulbul's 'Swag' Override Memories of Thunder?
    Will Chulbul's 'swag' override memories of Thunder? Pepsi's new face and Dabangg star Salman Khan a.k.a Chulbul Pandey has been a face for rival cola brand Thums Up. We speak to experts Rohit Ohri, KV Sridhar, Darshana Bhalla and Manish Bhatt for their take on this interesting development. There was a ruffle in the advertising and marketing fraternity around a recent piece of news concerning Pepsi. The flagship beverage brand from PepsiCo has just announced its association with Bollywood superstar and former Thums Up face Salman Khan. Brand faces change over time depending on objectives, but Pepsi's partnership with the Dabangg star flags two key points – the endorser's former association with rival cola brand Thums Up and Pepsi's recent positioning as a youth facing brand, placing itself alongside college students and within campuses. Why did Thums Up choose Salman Khan back in the day? This high octane cola brand from Coca Cola has always worn macho faces, including the likes of Suniel Shetty, Akshay Kumar, Chiranjeevi, Mahesh Babu and more recently Ranveer Singh. All the film stars have had action packed roles in their parallel presence on the silver screen and this was extended to the ad communications. After all, it had to be about the 'Thunder'. Coca-Cola India signed Salman Khan for Thums Up in 2012. The company had then tied up with Khan's movie Dabangg 2 which released on December 21 the same year. The action movie features Khan as Chulbul Pandey, a witty but strong-handed police officer.

  • Content Analysis of Item Songs: Reflections of a Toxic Socio-Cultural Milieu
    Turkish Journal of Computer and Mathematics Education Vol.12 No.10 (2021), 3856-3861 Research Article Content Analysis of Item Songs: Reflections of A Toxic Socio-Cultural Milieu Dr. Shivali Sharma1, and Dr. Anu Dandona2 a,b Assistant Professor, AIBAS, Amity University, Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, India. [email protected] Article History: Received: 10 January 2021; Revised: 12 February 2021; Accepted: 27 March 2021; Published online: 28 April 2021 Abstract: The present paper is based on the premise that the item songs in bollywood movies are the worst reflections of the identity of women. Movies are a popular form of mass media and they play a key role in moulding opinions, constructing images and reinforcing dominant cultural values. The structure of the "lyrics and the dance moves" in the item songs objectify the females in the most degrading ways. In the present paper content analysis was conducted on 15 Item Numbers over the span of 23 years. Considering the over popularity of the item songs, and its corresponding impact on culture; it is crucial to analyze and interpret the lyrics and dance moves portrayed in the Item Songs. The primary themes of the Top Item Songs were analyzed and they include: the glorification of criminal activities , self objectification, dismemberment, Materialism, high libidinal drive in women, the sexual objectification of women etc. 1. Introduction Sexual objectification is the treatment of an individual similarly as a body, an encounter of being treated as a body which is dominatingly introduced as an article for the joy of men or prevalently for the consumption of male look (Fredrickson, &Roberts, 1997).

  • From Mujras to Item Songs: Tracing the Journey of Courtesan Songs in Popular Hindi Movies and Inclusion in Popular Culture
    Volume III, Issue V, July 2015 – ISSN 2321-7065 From Mujras to Item Songs: Tracing the Journey of Courtesan Songs in Popular Hindi movies and inclusion in Popular Culture. Cheena Chawla Assistant Professor( Department of English) Patel Memorial National College Rajpura, Punjab. Abstract: The present paper attempts to analyze the incorporation of courtesan songs as mujras in Popular Hindi movies and their inclusion in Popular culture. These mujras held a prominent position in Bollywood and contributed a great deal to the success of the movies they were a part of. Due to globalization and changing trends and consumer demands, the mujras in Indian cinema slowly and gradually transformed and paved way for the bolder and more provocative item numbers and the courtesan stood reincarnated as the item girl. Research Paper: Courtesan songs originated in temples through devadasis and gradually reached Kothas and concert halls. With the degeneration of courtesan tradition, their private performances and private salons dwindled considerably. But their art was not completely lost. With the proliferation of Bollywood, their music started incorporating itself into popular Hindi movies, though in a somewhat changed manner, which catered to the interest of the masses i.e. it became part of the popular culture. Popular culture has been the subject of a heated critical debate. The proponents of elitist culture, critics such as Max Horkheimer and T. W. Adorno, Dwight Macdonald are of the view that "Masscult ... doesn't even have the possibility of being good," because it "offers its customers neither an emotional catharsis nor an aesthetic experience" (Macdonald 4). Whereas the proponents of popular culture, critics such as Richard Slotkin, Refereed (Peer Reviewed) Journal www.ijellh.com 416 Volume III, Issue V, July 2015 – ISSN 2321-7065 Leslie Fiedler argue that culture does not merely include elite and high works of art, instead „culture is ordinary‟(Williams 92) as Raymond Williams points out.
