RESPECTFULF GAZE OF KUMAR SHAHANI CINEMA

De l'existence d'un regard respectueux dans le cinéma de Kumar Shahani

Résumé

This article is a tribute to Kumar Shahani a pioneer of India’s arthouse parallel cinema who passed away in February 2024 at the age of 83. I am attached to express a tribute to this gifted and talented artist in Talking Films Online (TFO) an originally Indian group bringing together international Filmmakers, cinephiles, students and scholars on regular collective analytical exercises related to worldwide cinema. I will offer a personal view of one of Kumar Shahani’s first film “Maya Darpan” (1972). Kumar Shahani was aged of 32 years old, showing maturity and delicacy in the film “Maya Darpan” (1972) stressing the respectful ways Kumar Shahani was filming his main actress, revealing his austerity, modesty and immense sense of tolerance as universal merits and moral principles. In that perspective I evoke the existence of a “respectful gaze” in Kumar Shahani parallel cinema.
