Achut Kanya is other example of classic movie which is totally based on the one and only Indian Theory Rasa without making any kind of over acting element. The whole story is about the eight rasa from which the director have focused to showcase the Sringara means Love the most. This film was the first step to educate the people regarding the ill effects of casteism at that time was a great challenge. In some part of the film the director have also implemented the Dhvani Theory like showing the new twist in that girl’s life, a rising sun is shown.
Achut Kanya was one of the most respected movies for its socials topic it was one of the film which was passed by Bombay Talkies. The basic them of this movie was to show the manner of Untouchability in India and this film was a slap to all the believers of the Indian society who believes in un-uniformity among the people. The story directly attacked the canons of Hindu society. This was a time when law and precedent obstructed the inter-caste marriage and firmly supported the ostracism of the untouchable. To be sure, the great leaders like Gandhi, Nehru and other leaders of the Indian National Congress called for an end to this and repeated, week after week, that independence in itself would not be enough, that Hindu society must also reform itself from within. They successfully hammered at issues of caste, untouchability, widow remarriage. On the level of popular fable the social films to educate the people by the medium of entertainment.
The main element in the movie was that it was the first films in the whole Indian cinema were the climax was shown in the very starting of screen play. The story is well played with the love bonding between the Brahmin and the Dalit girl. In story have covered the entire struggle and the radiant face of the Indian dominating society who blindly believes in old traditions of Indian culture.
Even today this film is surprisingly honest, evocative and sensitive. Pictures more than words are used to suggest a mood, describe a feeling or indicate a crucial point in the narrative. An element of understatement is evident throughout the film. The ending of the movie is sad were the lead actress dies in a train accident were she tries to help out her lover. This climax straightly shows the impact of the deep rooted stupid cultures, rituals and blind fiats of the Indian society. This is the movie which resembles the thoughts of the today Indian mentality also nothing is changed only the people now are educated chastises believers.
