  Call for Papers: Special Section on Coming of Age on Screen: Youthful Subjectivities in Contemporary Indian Media

  This special issue seeks to reposition contemporary Indian cinema and digital media as a vital site for rethinking youth, subject formation, and media modernity within transnational and Global South frameworks. Across global film history—from The 400 Blows and Germany Year Zero to The Graduate—coming-of-age narratives have mediated crises of modernity through generational transition. Yet dominant scholarship continues to privilege Euro-American models of adolescence grounded in liberal individualism and autonomy. This special issue proposes to decentre such paradigms by foregrounding contemporary Indian screen cultures, where youth emerge not merely as psychological maturation or generational dissent, but as structurally produced through caste hierarchies, neoliberal education systems, queer visibility regimes, migration economies, and platform capitalism.
