Women And Violence In Selected Works Of Manjula Padmanabhan, Poile Sengupta And Kishwar Desai

In this paper look at how the works of famous Indian writers Manjula Padmanabhan, Poile Sengupta, and Kishwar Desai show and treat women. Most of their stories are about women and question or challenge traditional gender roles and biases in Indian society. A close study of the plays they picked shows a common theme of women's empowerment and resistance to traditional male limits. "Harvest" by Manjula Padmanabhan is a brave story that criticizes the selling of the human body in a dystopian future. The main character's ability to lead her family and make important decisions shows that Padmanabhan thinks women are strong and tough. Penelope Sengupta's "Inner Laws," on the other hand, is a psychological study of a normal housewife who battles with patriarchal dominance and social norms. The play looks inside a woman's mind and celebrates her strength in the face of tragedy, which shows how much Sengupta wanted to understand and accept the variety of women's mental landscapes. Then we look at all of Kishwar Desai's work. Desai is a writer first and foremost, but the women she writes about are very important. In her stories, women are often shown to be strong, capable, and complex figures who go beyond common ideas about them. Padmanabhan, Sengupta, and Desai's writings focus on women's freedom, critical thinking about male norms, and the emotional, psychological, and social experiences of women.
