Abstract
The essay locates three instances of hypersexual imagery in Indian cinema, casted to adult scenes, deemed equivalent to pornography with particular reference to the logic of transnational global capitalist image. In contrary, the essay also draws the discursive logic of negation of the desiring sex(usual) image of Indian actor, engendered a space of domesticity, Indianness, sexual obscenity, cultural anxiety and moral panic. Thus, this imagination builds into argument, a point of analytical disjuncture, debating sex, gender and sexuality in India that disturbs, subverts and remakes the popular culture driven by the logic of repression/liberation with, bemusing women and national(ist) image to that of the complexity of emerging economic globalization and transnational consumer/capitalist market.
