Queer Narratives in Indian Cinema: A Comparative Study of Traditional and Modern Depictions" Films Like Taali, Haddi, Super Deluxe, Margarita with a Straw and Aligarh

Indian cinema has historically reflected societal attitudes towards LGBTQ+ identities, with early portrayals often confined to stereotypes and marginal roles. Traditional films frequently depicted queer characters as either comedic caricatures or tragic figures, reinforcing societal biases and limiting authentic representation. This study examines the evolution of queer narratives in Indian cinema, highlighting the significant shift towards more nuanced portrayals in contemporary films. Films such as Taali (2023) and Margarita with a Straw (2014) showcase a move towards depth and empathy, reflecting broader societal changes and greater awareness of LGBTQ+ issues. Taali offers an authentic portrayal of a transgender activist, while Margarita with a Straw provides a groundbreaking depiction of a bisexual woman with a disability. Similarly, Aligarh (2015) and Super Deluxe (2019) demonstrate a departure from superficial portrayals, focusing on the complexities of queer experiences. Despite progress, Bollywood still grapples with outdated stereotypes, underscoring the need for ongoing advocacy and reform. This study emphasizes the importance of these evolving portrayals in fostering a more inclusive cinematic landscape and contributing to societal understanding of LGBTQ+ experiences. Introduction Indian cinema has historically been a reflection of the nation's social, cultural, and political milieu. The portrayal of queer identities in Indian cinema has evolved significantly over time, mirroring the changing attitudes and awareness surrounding LGBTQ+ issues in society. Traditionally, queer characters in Indian films were often relegated to stereotypical or marginal roles, reflecting broader societal discomfort with non-normative sexualities and gender identities (Ganti, 2012). The portrayal of queer individuals was frequently limited to comedic caricatures or tragic figures, lacking depth and authenticity. This historical context is essential for understanding the current landscape of queer representation in Indian cinema and underscores the importance of analysing these shifts in portrayal over time. In traditional Indian cinema, queer characters were often depicted through a narrow lens, which reinforced societal prejudices and stereotypes. Early films tended to portray LGBTQ+ individuals in a manner that was either exaggeratedly comedic or patently villainous. For instance, queer characters were sometimes used as comic relief or as embodiments of societal fears about deviance from heteronormative norms

The impact of facebook usage on marital bonds in the digital age: A comprehensive analysis

The paper examines Facebook's effect on marriage happiness from both a good and negative perspective. Couples get closer on Facebook when they engage in positive activities like liking and sharing messages. Moreover, engaging in joint hobbies and seeking out assistance are factors that enhance marital contentment. But problems like unjustified comparisons and envystoked by Facebook may undermine connection and trust. Overuse of Facebook can also cause neglect or resentment by taking time away from in-person relationships. Couples need to prioritise in-person relationships, establish clear limits, and speak honestly in order to manage these difficulties. Facebook can provide social support, but it can also lead to alienation and envy.The key to overcome these challenges is having fruitful conversations and setting clear boundaries. Many people express hapiness with their partner's Facebook usage, despite certain problems. There is always space for growth, though, as there is still a difference between the dynamics of relationships live and online. All things considered, the study emphasises how critical deliberate participation and honest communication are to creating fulfilling love relationships in the digital age. Keywords: Alienation, boundaries, communication, envy, happiness

Various cultural rituals are observed by new media consumers related to marriages, and some of these rituals have been significantly followed while others have been completely eliminated.
