R. Meera's <em>Hangwoman</em>, which is examined through the perspective of post-viewing media and the traumatic experiences of the people affected. It is the representation of the protagonist in the context of her forced job as the first female hangwoman in the country that serves to project the trauma that a young woman goes through. As a further point of interest, this portrayal highlights the painful experiences that women in modern-day India go through, as demonstrated by the multidimensional character of the protagonist. The article sheds light on the concealed power dynamics, the impact of power on humility, the extent of opposition to the process, and the remarkable resilience of the protagonist, Chetna and other individuals in the face of numerous traumatic experiences. The researcher has conducted a thorough analysis of the postmodern state, wherein the production of simulated images in the media comes at the expense of an individual's privacy.</span></p> |
