NepEng- RITU

Lapaata Ladies , one of the recent fabulous movies from Aamir Khan's production, centers around two newlywed women who are 'lost and found' in their own respective ways. The audience's emotions fluctuate with the progression of the film, which captures a timeline dating back to the early 2000s, when villages in central India lived a traditional life steeped in extreme patriarchal customs and notions. First, let's discuss the movie's poster. It features two protagonists, with a male figure looking at the bride, who is completely covered by a wedding veil, symbolizing her lack of identity and the concealment of her true self, which is central to the plot. The man has a curious, concerned look on his face. His slightly open mouth and gaze upon her suggest a distant position, despite being her husband. This poses the question: "Is marriage really a scam in the name of holy matrimony, plagued by the dowry system?" Especially for wome...

The protagonist dwells around the market in search of pudina that her wife told him to get from market. It was thursday thus all the shops were closed and only few vendors had set up their bussiness in that area. He knew if he miss it then the wife will find away to blast his head. He thinks about the colleague's upcoming party. Drowned in a deep thought, a stranger shoves his shoulder to his and like brewing up awareness he shouts, "excuse me?" Stranger ignores him and heads on. Our protagonist stands still again. Lilly has not picked up his call, she must be in some trouble he doubts. Then again, he remembers she went to Batasia with her Bengali friends.  He marches forward, straight to Narayan Das and orders a tea and samosa, that waa his usual. 'Windows aren't clean these days', he murmurs. He looks at the girl sitting besides him, she waves at him. 'Hello Sir!' She greets. 'Oh dear, you have grown up a lot, how are you?' 'I'm good,...

I was least expected,  You pulled me and they had to bear. Dear, I am a rose with thorn,  Don't compell me to justify,  I am a person whose nature  Has potential to cause what you abhor . I am not the shrine you like to showcase, A dagger to attack and a shield to protect my family,  I am a flower in the garden of Love,  I will die if you dare to puck me.

Being someone's wife is quite different than being a mother or daughter or any other relationship. You are looked upon as a partner with neccesary abilities. If you are better in certain things then it's perfect for his heart to feel content and equally mortifying for his mind to feel 'comparative sickness' (where you compare yourself with your partner and face inferiority complex sometimes if not overcome). You both support eachother but these support too comes in a package.  Rules are laid down to be a perfect husband or wife in social media these days, numbers of reels and shorts are made to make you realise how great it is to be a good spouse. We are as viewers are digesting these narratives. Again this 'comparative sickness' hampers many relationship which are built unlike the projected skits. Ever pondered about these support thing ? I as a woman, feel quite drifted while understanding these norms because of disparity among my situation and the...

Every month before my cycle starts I go through some emotional imbalance, like suddenly I start thinking too much about everything and strong sense of feelings surges up. I am not aware whether every girl has to experience this but what I certainly understand is that it is temporary and will soon go away with time.  Charlotte Brontë writes, "I care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself." My disposition at this hour reckons to be exactly the same.I care about my well being, sometimes too much. I have almost no friend to share my inner predicaments, to share my intimate thoughts, with whom I am like transparent glass, a 'bosom friend' which so many girls have, a girlfriend. I shield myself from misery of being decieved and scorn  By them. I believe there are very few who genuinely loves us and deeply share those attribute which we delightfully accept in our lives. I dont have any idea whether it sha...

Because I could not stop for lunch He asked me to jump out of my window Reasoning there is no place for Excuse One thing he doesnot know That it can call for death If not factures on my bones. Thousand acres shall perish in deadyard If the belief had ounce of truth Excuse is not a crime! It is an Obligation One has, due to pressure of social norms, It is an Escape  From insecurities and fear smeared by oneself And backdoor to avoid confistication Held by everyone's 'Father'. Unbiological, heterosexual, strong-headed alpha Treading around every possible weakness Wearing a mask of colourful bright mascara. 'Excuse'you called it, It is an unromantic song  Played on wedding night, And  inactive hormones banging their head On the wall of fraustrated brain. The sleepless night called upon on chariot Swinging the bells of half-dead heart. Breathing the displeasure of passionless company Under the pillow, smothering past visions, Don't call it an 'Excuse', Becau...

AVATAR 2 has earned 1.5 billion till now, but what is more interesting is the approach of this movie. The concept building and thorough research that Director Cameron and his team has done here. Amongst other approaches, the following points provide you the  Eco-feminist perspective of this movie.  1) Navi as Tribal culture :  Jake Sulley has potentially act as a pro-nature guy siding with the 'Navi' people of Pandora during the RDA, Quartrich's invasion. The nature itself is quite an intrinsic part of these people who thrives peacefully within it. The culture of 'Navi' can be linked to the ' Tribal Culture ' which are inherently pro-nature sustaining harmoniously with the ecosystem. The Greenery of the place marks the fertility of Pandora, which is not only preserved by these people but balanced perfectly. However, the invasion and machinery introduced in first Avatar movie can be linked to the destructive masculinity repre...
