Hindi cinema has typically been interpreted through both internal (auteur or genre or cinéma verité) and external (consumption spheres and the complex response of moviegoers in the form of catharsis or everydayness mimesis) lenses. However, there is a pressing need for a fresh approach to understanding 'Dalit Representation' within the realm of cinema. The study must delve into the construction and significance of the social language employed in Hindi cinema. Construction involves examining factors beyond the film industry that contribute to shaping the social language. Meaning entails the display of social language through messages. Here, relational exploration becomes paramount. The relationship between the elements of Hindi cinema's social language and Dalits must be unraveled to comprehend the meaning of social language for Dalits. Contested representation encompasses the nature of the absence and presence of Dalits in Hindi cinema.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePopular Hindi cinema has become a significant signpost of contemporaneity due to its construction of social language.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenerally,Hindi cinema has been understood through internal (auteur or genre or cinéma verité) and external aspects (consumption spheres and moviegoers complex response in the form of catharsis or everydayness mimesis).
