  • 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 BUCHAREST UNIVERSITY OF ECONOMIC STUDIES The Faculty of International Business and Economics The Department of Modern Languages and Business Communication of ASE Iuliu Hațieganu University of Medicine and Pharmacy Cluj- Napoca 7th International Conference: Synergies in Communication Bucharest, Romania, 22 - 23 November 2018 BEHIND THE SCREENS: A STUDY OF THE FILMS OF THREE INDIAN WOMEN DIRECTORS Minouti NAIK1 Abstract Indian films, even after 76 years of independence and 105 years of Indian Cinema, are a predominantly male domain. The percentage of women film makers, in the industry, is a mere 9.1%. Despite this, the films directed by women have compelled audiences to take notice, because of the wide spectrum of issues they have touched upon. Three women directors, whose movies have left an indelible mark on the audiences, include Tanuja Chandra, Meghna Gulzar and Gauri Shinde. This paper analyses the work of these three women directors, for the uniqueness of their themes and the characters they have sketched, and attempts to find out, what has led to their films being etched deeply, into the consciousness of their audience. This will be analysed against the backdrop of the realities of the society from which these films emerge, and as a reflection of the gender dynamics existing in Indian society. Keywords: Indian cinema, women, themes, characters, uniqueness 1. Introduction Men have sight, women insight. - Victor Hugo Victor Hugo‟s observation, penned down in his memoirs, might be an apt point to begin with, when one reflects upon films made by Indian women filmmakers. Despite films forming a very important facet of the Indian society and the fact that India completed 105 years of cinema, this year, the number of women making films in India is very small.

  • Ogilvy & Mather India Consumers Culture & Contexts Sep05
    India Consumers, Culture & Contexts Kunal Sinha Executive Director – Discovery Ogilvy & Mather India Everyone says that the Indian market is booming. From Friedman to Prahalad, they talk about opportunities across the pyramid – from top to bottom. The challenge for marketers and communicators remains this – how does one come to grips with the diversity that is India? This collection of articles delves into the cultural consciousness and symbolism that seem to define modern-day India. Some describe an India that balances tradition with modernity, and is seemingly reluctant to let go of its rich past even as it seeks to embrace a more prosperous future. Others are articles about innovations in research, necessitated by the need to uncover the unarticulated codes that are embedded in the consumer’s psyche. Hope you enjoy reading them. CONSUMER INSIGHTS @ THE TRAIN OF THOUGHT n the business of consumer insight, I am constantly challenged by the need to get deeper Iunder the skin of people. How can I make people tell us stories about their lives, reveal their true feelings & passions? How can I keep them interested during a focus group discussion or a depth interview beyond an hour, when they start thinking about that grocery list or the week’s sales targets? Will ‘respondents’ be really comfortable in a hotel room, or a stranger’s living room, or will they be on the guard with a bunch of strangers ? What is it that has changed in society and culture that we can really understand and profit from ? It is such questions that lead me to re-examine some of the ways by which we unearth insights.

These Item Songs are not directly related to the story but to fetch audience and crores at Box-Office, several filmmakers place item numbers in the movies. Item songs present women in filthy clothes, vulgar lyrics, and their body parts are presented inappropriately. Dance moves and the way of presentation of these songs make it more obscene. Initially, actresses who played vamps on screen or appear for guest appearances in movies used to feature in such songs. But nowadays leading actresses also get featured in such songs as it gives rise to their career. Therefore this research focuses on the point that item songs are meant for entertainment, not for the objectification of Keywords women, and hence presentation and projection of women in Hindi movies should be Degraded language; changed more positively.
