...Bandit Queen Shekar Kapur’s Bandit Queen is according to Priyamvada Gopal (Gopal 73-102) “loosely” based on the real life story of an out law called Phoolan Devi. She was a lower caste woman from central India who underwent a series of travails that are depicted in the Bandit Queen. Phoolan Devi became a gang leader and a popular figure in India who later surrendered herself to the government and went to jail for several crimes she had committed. The film depicting Phoolan’s life brought about many controversies in India; critics have argued whether or not Kapur’s film brings forth the degradation faced by Phoolan or is it yet another exploitative measure? Some have accused the film of being another money making depiction, which further victimizes Phoolan, while others including the director of the film saw it as necessary to shed light on issues surrounding women that are usually ignored (Gopal 73-102). To add to these notions, this essay will discuss the very crucial issues that the film brings up through its characters and imagery by examining the role of authority, and the structural societal power that goes beyond the story of just one woman’s rape to looking at patriarchy system of oppression as whole and its consequences. Leela Fernandes in her article “A Trans/national Feminist Perspective on the Discrepancies of Representation” points out that “the film’s emphasis on rape shifts Phoolan from a legendary figure_ a woman dacoit, both heroic and notorious to the status...

...www.galaxyimrj.com Galaxy: International Multidisciplinary Research Journal ISSN 2278-9529 Gandhian Ideals in Raja Rao’s Kanthapura P. Prayer Elmo Raj Assistant Professor, Department of English Karunya University, Coimbatore Raja Rao’s Kanthapura is one of the finest depictions of the Freedom Movement commenced in the early twentieth century by Mahatma Gandhi to lead India towards freedom from the colonial British rule. India’s freedom struggle which exerted considerable influence on the demeanor of Indian population is the central thrust of the novel. Kanthapura illustrates how Gandhian ideals and struggle for freedom against the British arrived to a characteristic South Indian village Kanthapura. The novel is a striking example of the impact of Gandhian leadership and value that affected even the distant Indian villages. Kanthapura, the “dynamo” of the Gandhian ideals communicates the fresh impetus that propelled the freedom struggle against the British.

Some god or godlike hero has passed by the village – Rama might have rested under this papal-tree...
