A Feminist Analysis: Role of Media in Maintaining Patriarchal Society
Next, let’s analyse the movie: Kabir Singh.
Last year a movie was released that made very huge in theatres – Kabir Singh. This whole movie was highly problematic and misogynist. In this movie, Kabir is portrayed as a very symbol of ‘machismo’. He gets attracted to his junior – Preeti who just got admission into the college.
He then declares Preeti as his personal asset by saying – ‘Ye Meri Bandi Hai’ in front of college and warns other boys to stay away from her. Isn’t that suggesting that Kabir has marked a human as his territory? He then kisses Preeti publicly without her consent. He slaps Preeti in retaliation of Preeti’s father beating him and denying to accept their relationship.
