Structuralism and Literary Criticism

Structuralism and Literary Criticism

structuralism emphasizes how flims convey meaning through use of codes and conventions. Film often convey message through the sequence of shots. In film, we are able to move between iconic, symbolic and indexical levels which allows us to process meaning on a much deeper level.

Ishaqzaade presented the passionate love story of two different religion and rebellious individuals. The Chauhans and the Qureshis are two political families whose rivalry and matual hatred for one another goes back generations. Parma is a good for nothing local enforcer, grandson of the patriarch Chauvinist and Zoya his beloved, who is an only daughter in a traditional muslim family. But their families never allows they to love each other or to marry.

In the last scene of the movie, Zoya asks Parma to shoot her so that their love can win and they shoot each other and died in the victory of their love.

We can see this particular love structure in many hindi film. For example Ram Leela, Ishaq etc.
