摘要

本文探讨了印度阿姨的诗学与政治。我认为电影《午餐盒》（2013）中的阿姨与古老的梵语传统akashvani（天音）进行了谈判。在文章的第一部分，我追踪了这位阿姨从一个印地语借词到一份政治声明的轨迹。然后，我通过对Ritesh Batra的《午餐盒》的分析来研究这位阿姨，以展示这位阿姨是如何改写宝莱坞色情凝视并挑战无偿女性家务劳动的。总的来说，我研究了印度阿姨是如何提供另一个抵制父权话语的习语的。

Aunties are voices from the sky: Re-imagining resistance in bollywood

ABSTRACT This article explores the poetics and politics of the Indian aunty. I argue that the aunty in the movie The Lunchbox (2013) negotiates with the ancient Sanskrit tradition of akashvani (celestial voice). In the first part of the article, I track the aunty’s trajectory from a loan word in Hindi to a political statement. I then study the aunty through an analysis of Ritesh Batra’s The Lunchbox to demonstrate how the aunty figure rewrites Bollywood’s eroticizing gaze and challenges unpaid female domestic labor. Overall, I examine how the Indian aunty offers another idiom of resistance against the discourse of patriarchy.
