Indian English Feminist Fiction and Indian Hindi films have been consistently
projecting myriad shades of woman's journey for self-empowerment. Both the
mediums enjoy immense popularity among the masses. The present paper
focuses on a woman's psychological need to be nurtured and cared for, though
ceaseless torments force her to retaliate as she finds it difficult to tolerate the
prejudiced behavior. Hence, in her struggle to fulfill her roles and
responsibilities as a mother, daughter, wife and a professional she emerges as a
woman of substance in spite of all the contraries that assail her life. Manju
Kapur's novel, Difficult Daughters and Madhur Bhandarkar's film Satta are
the subject of scrutiny in charting out the various points of progression in a
woman's life. |
