Abstract
This research delves into the portrayal of Muslims in Bollywood cinema, analyzing two significant films released in the first half of 2023, ‘Pathaan’ and ‘The Kerala story’. With one film adopting a balanced and neutral perspective and the other propagating highly biased and factually inaccurate information, the study scrutinizes the complex and evolving dynamics of Muslim representation in the industry. This research also underscores the powerful role of Bollywood in shaping societal norms, challenging stereotypes, and influencing perceptions. It calls for a more conscientious approach to filmmaking, emphasizing authenticity, inclusivity, and ethical considerations. The study advocates for responsible storytelling that fosters understanding, respect, and harmony, rejecting the perpetuation of harmful stereotypes and biases in favor of a more inclusive and interconnected world.
