Bollywood Clips (h/w)

Within the older clip, the female is shown to be an entertainer as she’s dancing while all the males watch her. In both clips, the female is represented as a sex object who is there to be looked at yet within the newer clip, the female is wearing a more revealing costume which demonstrates the effects of globalization. Moreover, all the characters seemed to have become more westernized as this is not only reflected via their costumes, but also because the actual video is more like a music video. Whereas, in the first clip, the mise-en-scene is the same throughout the song, the second clip has shots of the female dancing interweaved with the males and the action. The second clip also reflects how important technology has become and it reflects how advanced we have gotten, as the clip has special effects added and a variety of different types of shots have been used. Although the genre has changed some of the ideology has remained the same, as both clips promote a patriarchal society and both show females to be passive, as neither seems to have an important role which helps to move the narrative along.
