Bollywood’s New Woman examines Bollywood’s construction and
presentation of the Indian Woman since the 1990s. The
groundbreaking collection illuminates the contexts and contours of
this contemporary figure that has been identified in sociological
and historical discourses as the “New Woman.” On the one hand,
this figure is a variant of the fin de siècle phenomenon of the
“New Woman” in the United Kingdom and the United States. In the
Indian context, the New Woman is a distinct articulation resulting
from the nation’s tryst with neoliberal reform, consolidation of
the middle class, and the ascendency of aggressive Hindu Right
politics.
