Portrayal of Women in Satyajit Ray’s Films
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
The present study attempts to explore the transition of traditional women characters towards modernity or how modern they are in Satyajit Ray’s films or are they oscillating between the tradition and modern. Many scholars have found Nehruvian aspirations and visions for a modern India in Satyajit Ray’s early films made up to 1964. Further both these men have one thing in common, the aspirations for fusion of east and west .So, the researcher has chosen APORAJITO and CHARULATA to examine Satyajit Ray’s vision of transition of 19th century women from tradition to modernity
