Unveiling the Savior: Studying Kamala Right from its inception feminist discourse has been concerned with

providing female their rightful seat in a sexist, androcentric society. Needless to mention, female has always been identified as the other of male in a cultural system of meaninggeneration through binary oppositions. Female get their identity through negatives, in terms of what they are not rather than what they are. The concepts such as penis-envy are the products of it. The social institutions, predominantly masculine, have proliferated a system of beliefs and norms which have helped to strengthen the male dominance. In India, although the Vedic period bears the evidences of equal status of men and women, the post-Vedic periods witness deterioration in it. Woman turns from a personality to a thing to be exploited at the will and whim of male. Society becomes gendered. In the modern times, in spite of all the hurly-burly of globalization, liberalization and the claims of providing equal opportunity to the fair-sex; our society to a great extent is patriarchal in its mindset. The people can shout slogans or deliver a mesmerizing speech about womens liberation but in their daily lives they are unable to transcend the patriarchal ideology. This duality of male has been a recurring problem, as they are the ones who seem to be friends but turn out to be enemies in disguise. Vijay Tendulkars play Kamala is about such a person who keeps two faces: one is of liberal, humanitarian social-reformer while the other is of a patriarch exploiting female-folk for his personal interests.
