Ajay Bahl\u2019s <\/p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 like Anubhav Sinha\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Article 15<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 is designed as a response to the excesses of a society that often disregards the basic codes of human civility. Both these films capitalise on the demands of a socially conscious climate and by design, command attention and muster immediate praise for doing so. Yet they also tread a thin line between packaging themselves just as a message and as an all-out statement: If Sinha sometimes fumbled while ensuring that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Article 15 <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">spoke about the marginalised and not for them, then Bahl can be accused of unreservedly falling into the trap of making <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375 \u2013 <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">supposed to focus on the idea of consent \u2013 into a smug \u201cNot All Men\u201d declaration.<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The premise of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> \u2013 inspired from real cases \u2013 is straightforward: Anjali Dangle (Meera Chopra), a young junior female employee accuses Rohan Khurana (Rahul Bhat) her older, powerful boss of raping her during a work meeting at his house and lodges a case against him. Initially, Rohan denies that the assault took place and claims Anjali is lying but eventually admits they were having an affair and that the sex was consensual. These two contrasting narratives of the same incident are sincerely and at times, theatrically heightened in court by Hiral Gandhi (Richa Chadha), the prosecutor arguing on behalf of the victim and Tarun Saluja (an effective Akshaye Khanna), the high-profile defense attorney.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the ensuing 123 minutes, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, under the guise of a courtroom drama, doesn\u2019t just ascertain who eventually wins the case, but also seeks to pinpoint the exact moment when sex becomes rape. The main contention of the film is <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the Indian Penal Code, that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/indiankanoon.org\/doc\/623254\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">states <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the circumstances under which a man is said to have \u201ccommitted rape\u201d. The film focuses on the first two, which list down that sexual intercourse becomes rape when it is against her \u201cwill\u201d and without her \u201cconsent\u201d.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Initially \u2013 at least in the effective first half \u2013 <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> feels like a film that wants to truthfully confront that sexual assault can never be cut and dried in this day and age, unravelling the complicated, messy terrains of enthusiastic consent. But that\u2019s merely a ruse. Under the veneer of socially conscious filmmaking, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> instead, reduces both, sexual assault and the Me Too movement into broad stereotypes (there are ample digs at the media for covering sexual harassment that seems to miss the point of reporting and social media is villanised with dialogues like \u201cthe court of Twitter\u201d) to argue that in cases of rape, the burden of proof falls on the accused instead of the victim, making it that much easier to misuse. This, according to the film, is not just a travesty, but also a violation of the law and every moment of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is designed specifically to illustrate and serve this systemic tale of horror. Bahl employs the separation between following the \u201claw\u201d and serving \u201cjustice\u201d (In an early scene, Saluja deems justice to be abstract and law to be a fact) as a crutch to drive home the point.<\/span>\n<blockquote class=\"quote--center\">The main problem with <em>Section 375<\/em> is Bahl\u2019s sneaky gaze, which revels in giving out the illusion of moral ambiguity when it really is deeply distrustful of women.<\/blockquote>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The power equations are cleanly drawn from the very beginning. Gandhi is described as the \u201ctorchbearer of female rights\u201d and is the bright but inexperienced junior lawyer fighting her first case while Saluja is played up as a confident, persuasive lawyer whose questionable methods are overridden by the fact that he seems to know what he is doing. Saluja also happens to be Gandhi\u2019s former mentor, which Bahl generously exploits as a license for him to be routinely patronising toward her in court.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Moreover, the film is entirely told from the perspective of Saluja, who is shown in an heroic light at every given opportunity (It\u2019s not enough that he decides to argue in favour of a convicted rapist, he is also given an agreeable backstory: Saluja takes up these high-profile cases only so that it can allow him to fight cases for the under-privileged, pro-bono). And throughout, Saluja \u2013 and by extension the audience \u2013 rely only on the version of the events repeated by the accused to come to a conclusion. As a result, he is the only one who remains in possession of any new evidence (Saluja gets to manufacture every plot-twist in <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gandhi, on the other hand, is painted as an inefficient lawyer, who screeches one point on repeat, discovers evidence in her own case after it has been presented in the court, and advises her client to withhold information. Bahl never allows them to be on a level-playing field: Saluja is always one step ahead. The judges hearing the case in the High Court are given defined labels as well: One is \u201ctolerant and liberal\u201d while the other has a \u201cno-nonsense approach\u201d and boasts of a \u201chigh conviction rate\u201d. The implication is naturally, that the odds are highly stacked against the fate of the accused.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To be clear, Bahl is well within his creative liberties to choose to highlight a narrative of sexual assault that is sympathetic to the fate of men who are falsely accused of rape. There exists ample record of these scenarios as well as innocent men being unfairly convicted of crimes they didn\u2019t commit being played out in our daily lives. I also don&#8217;t necessarily believe that a film \u2013 or any art for that matter \u2013 is mandated to be politically correct. But it does have a responsibility to not be terribly dishonest and utterly ignorant. Unfortunately, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is both these things.\u00a0<\/span>\n<blockquote class=\"quote--center\">It\u2019s slightly amusing how Hindi filmmakers are invested in educating the country about the Constitution and the Indian Penal Code than Indian politicians.<\/blockquote>\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For one, Bahl\u2019s gaze suffers from an evident superiority complex, as if he is a chess player playing and winning a game against himself.<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He crafts <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as a film whose true colours are visible only in hindsight, a move that is unquestionably manipulative. Bahl introduces sub-plots under the garb of being \u201cfactual\u201d at his convenience to deliberately mislead the audience into questioning their reading of the incident. And <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is especially dangerous, given how cleverly the director manages to camouflage his bias, even when it is on full display.\u00a0<\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For instance, in one scene (<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is written by Manish Gupta and Bahl is credited for \u201cAdditional Screenplay and Dialogues\u201d), Gandhi implies that an incident of rape is possible even in a consensual affair where one wields an unhealthy amount of power over the other. A few scenes later, the film has taken an U-turn, resting the blame on Anjali, implying that despite the power-gap in her relationship with Rohan, she was actually in control and fully aware of her actions. Yet the epitome of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Section 375\u2019s<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> utter cluelessness in interpreting the power dynamics that accompanies rape is the film mistaking \u201cwill\u201d for \u201cconsent\u201d, arguing that one naturally indicates the existence of the other. Saluja\u2019s closing argument rests on the fact that given Anjali consented to an affair with Rohan, it\u2019s ludicrous to imagine that the sexual intercourse could be against her will, effectively taking a myopic view of the situation. It&#8217;s a telling blindspot on the part of the makers to seem over-confident in not entertaining the idea that a sexual intercourse that is as per a woman&#8217;s will, can also be devoid of her consent. Rarely has a film being this misinformed about the politics and logistics of rape, consent, and Me Too as gloriously as <i>Section 375<\/i>. <\/span>\n\n<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is argually the biggest flaw of <em>S<\/em><\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">ection 375: <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bahl\u2019s sneaky gaze, which revels in giving out the illusion of moral ambiguity when it really is deeply distrustful of women. It\u2019s not just saying that the judiciary and the enforcers of the law of the land are systematically corrupted to a point where justice is a foregone conclusion. But more importantly, that women are out to seek revenge and that the system enables them. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At a time when we\u2019re witnessing men accused of misconduct return from their shame leaves, it\u2019s evident that news of sexual harassment has been going on long enough for filmmakers to finally feel comfortable in announcing how it has been a hard time for men. The least these confessionals could do, is make an effort to not exist at the expense of women.<\/span>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Section 375 is a sneaky, smug, and ignorant proclamation of &#8220;Not All Men&#8221; that comes at the expense of the Me Too movement.
