Voices from the Vault: Feminist Narratives and Resistance in Aparna Sen’s Goynar Baksho

Abstract

This article examines Aparna Sen’s Goynar Baksho as a feminist text that reimagines women’s agency within the domestic sphere. It highlights how satire, language, and supernatural elements are used to subvert patriarchal norms. The study argues that the film transforms traditional feminine roles into tools of resistance, allowing women to reclaim power and voice within restrictive social structures
