Transcending the Cinematic Universe: the Meta-Simulatory Attribute of Pawan Kumar’s Lucia
Journal Title: International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
The article delves into the thematic depths of Lucia (2013) an offbeat yet, highly ingenious film, written and directed by, Pawan Kumar. The film is notable for blending a unique theme, with solid technical expertise. The primary focus of the article is to explore the underlying theme of reality and illusion as witnessed in the film, which seems to have taken cue, from the sceptic hypotheses of the past and by doing so, attempts to unravel a parallel thread that runs within and outside of its cinematic universe. The article goes about its task of a thematic excavation, by breaking down its nonlinear tripartite narrative structure, so as to chronologically position the chain of events that ensues.
