Dulhan -2021- Cineboxprime Original //top\\ [COMPLETE × Bundle]

The 2021 CineBoxPrime Original, Dulhan (The Bride), departs from traditional Bollywood and regional Indian wedding sagas by re-framing the bride not as a passive participant in a celebratory ritual, but as an active agent of psychological resistance. This paper analyzes how Dulhan utilizes the digital OTT platform’s creative freedom to explore themes of coerced consent, familial gaslighting, and the "uncanny" within domestic spaces. By examining the film’s narrative structure, visual symbolism (particularly the bridal attire as a trap), and its subversion of the archetypal "mother-in-law" antagonist, this paper argues that Dulhan functions as a Gothic feminist text for the digital age, challenging the romanticization of arranged marriage in mainstream Indian media.
