Abstract
- The article discusses the rise of movies in India that depict scenes of sexual abuse and rape, often glorifying the acts and portraying them in a detailed and graphic manner. These movies often present rape as a tool for power and ownership, with the perpetrators being the sons of influential and powerful fathers. The article provides examples of such movies and highlights the negative socio-cultural impact they have, perpetuating violence against women and promoting the idea that women desire violence. The authors suggest that stricter filtering and certification by the Indian Censor Board, as well as the adoption of an accepted moral code by the media industry, could address this issue.
