This paper makes an attempt to understand how women engage with politics and cinema as against their male counterparts and whether the experience is at all different from the way men engage in the same. The study will also look at other smaller related issues and attempt to find answers to them and it questions the validity of the above issue, as a legitimate topic for discussion in the context of literary studies. The study reaches into a new hypothesis that film studies appears to stray into the arenas of cultural studies and identity politics. Context starts speaking for film and film starts to become inextricably intertwined in the reading of cultures, a vehicle of social reproduction.
