Abstract
This research paper entitled “Challenging the Myth of Rural Innocence Utilizing Gaze as a Thematic Element” is a study on how the thematic element of gaze is utilized to question the myth of rural innocence in two Malayalam movies Varathan (2018) and Jallikattu (2019). Both the movies showcase the different dimensions of the term gaze. However, the major focus of this research paper is on how such dimensions of gaze result in shackling the picture of the serene and innocent villagers as depicted in several other Malayalam movies. The ideas put forward by psychoanalyst Jacques Lacan and film theorists Laura Mulvey and Jean-Louis Baudry are used in support of the arguments proposed in this paper.
