The growth of Indian wave in Indonesia has reached its peak through Indian TV
series with historical-based story aired in one of Indonesian TV stations namely
ANTV. This paper scrutinizes audience's attitude toward Indian TV series, namely
Jodha Akbar, as the current phenomenon happens in society and how female
viewers contextualize womanhood issue that lies within the main female character
in the TV series within Indonesian setting. This research is a qualitative research
with interpretive approach. The researcher conducted semi-structured interviews
toward several female viewers who met several criteria that have been set by the
researcher. The researcher used snowball sampling to collect the data and then
analyzed the interview results using Ien Ang’s theory about audience reception and
England, Descartes and Collier-Meek theory about womanhood. It is found that
these female viewers give positive responses more than the negative one. They also
not only regard the main female character in the series as women; more than that,
they see Jodha from the perspective of a mother, a wife and a leader figure. They
also value the role of a mother, a wife and a leader figure as something that is not
be able to find in women in modern society. Furthermore, Jodha Akbar TV series
itself has successfully presented special characteristics of Indian women figure
through Jodha Bai character that makes the respondents compare this to Indonesian
women figure that had lost their characteristics. |
