Violence Against Woman: A Study Of Kiran Nagarkar’s Cuckold

Abstract

Marriage is an integral part of the social and cultural fabric, and as such, the prince is expected to exert dominance over his bride throughout their marriage and beyond. Because males are so anxious to prove themselves, women are more susceptible to these pressures. When the prince’s wife refuses to comply with his demands, he resorts to physical assault against her. How, cultural factors significantly contribute to the instigation of violence against women is shown by the man’s violent behaviour against his wife during their ritual. Unbeknownst to him, he is turned into a stereotypical Macho beast by powers beyond his control.
