    Story & Screenplay © Manoj (Vaz) Ramchandran +91 98203 13809 [email protected] THE PERIOD God’s own country – Kerala in 1803. Many books and histories have been written about caste oppression in Kerala and the men and women who fought the injustice. The Kerala monarchies of the time ensured the subjugation of the lower castes by imposing heavy taxes on them. Their wealth was built on some of the worst taxes imposed anywhere in the world. Besides the tax on land and crops, peasants had to pay taxes for the right to wear jewelry, the right of men to grow a moustache, and even the right of women to cover their breasts. The heavy taxes ensured that the lower castes were kept eternally in debt, while members of the upper castes flourished. Yet the story of one woman’s protest has almost faded away from the collective memory of the State. Story & Screenplay © Manoj (Vaz) Ramchandran T. Murali’s painting on Nancheli’s Sacrifice. THE TRUE STORY Nancheli alsoknown as Nangeli, who lived in Cherthala in Alappuzha over 200 years ago, gained her place in history. The brave Ezhava woman, protested this mulakkaram (breast tax system). Nancheli refused to both uncover her bosom and pay the breast tax. The tax collector, then called the parvathiyar, came to her house one day and demanded that she pay the tax. The legend goes that, proud woman that she was, Nancheli cut off her breasts and presented them to the parvathiyar on a plantain leaf. The tax collector fled in fear, while Nancheli bled to death at her doorstep.

  • Opposing Viewpoints: a Study on Female Representation by Women in Popular Indian Cinema
    INTERNATIONALJOURNALOF MULTIDISCIPLINARYEDUCATIONALRESEARCH ISSN:2277-7881; IMPACT FACTOR :6.514(2020); IC VALUE:5.16; ISI VALUE:2.286 Peer Reviewed and Refereed Journal: VOLUME:10, ISSUE:2(5), February:2021 Online Copy Available: www.ijmer.in OPPOSING VIEWPOINTS: A STUDY ON FEMALE REPRESENTATION BY WOMEN IN POPULAR INDIAN CINEMA Mr. Habin. H Ph. D Research Scholar in English T. K. M College of Arts and Science,University of Kerala Karikode, Kollam Abstract Popular Indian film industry has been dominated by men in all its fields. Even though women are involved in all roles including as film producers, film critics, actresses, directors etc., generally, they have been underrepresented and used for the purpose of generating erotic pleasure. This underrepresentation mainly happens in films which are directed by men. Recently, the number of women film makers has been increasing. Majority of films which are directed by women represent women true to their self, projects their problems and works for their betterment. Thus, by analysing certain Indian popular films, the present research paper projects the main notions that such movies try to present and how far those movies are different from those movies which are produced and directed by men. Keywords: Representation, Women, Popular Movies. Introduction In the past, female representations were underrepresented and subjected to the concept of male gaze. Even though there are ‘super woman’ characters in popular films, women are still sexualised. The film sector visages a constant difficulty to trace a sufficient aspect to balance both the sexualisation and betterment of sturdy women. Although representations of women characters have been improved in recent years, the rapid change in attitude happened in the popular Indian industry with the arrival of women directors and script writers.
