Today women are increasingly becoming high status holders in our society. Awareness of social rights differentiates her from the medieval sensual woman. In ancient times, men have been using women to fulfill their desires and needs. Although women had equal rights as men in ancient Indian society, their respect gradually decreased with the entry of Muslims in India. Perhaps that is why the word 'woman' which was used in Sanskrit and Hindi to indicate equality with 'man' was changed to 'aurat' or 'aurat' with the arrival of Muslims, according to Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha. Meaning, 'something worth hiding'. This literal change also reflects the change in the social status of women.
It is sad that in today's Punjabi singing, women are appearing in a very humiliating situation. From the social point of view, a woman is in the form of a mother, sister, wife, daughter, aunt, uncle, aunt, grandmother, grandmother etc. and in her various forms she works to support the family and society. But in today's Punjabi music only her girlfriend form is seen. This form of woman shown in current Punjabi music is shown to be full of lust and obscenity. Evidence of this can be found in the lyrics of many Punjabi songs today. The lyricists and singers present her as a mere object of show through literal descriptions of her physical beauty and the dimensions of various parts of her body. Apart from this, the description of the physical beauty of a woman in Punjabi songs is limited only to the beauty of her face, eyes and various body parts. It can be said that Nungez has become an important aspect of Punjabi music. In songs, women have become mere showpieces.
Don't shy away from defaming social relationships
These singers do not shy away from denigrating social relationships while depicting social upheaval. These singers use abusive words like Rakkan, Velan, Patola, Fatto, Sample, Tota, Yankan and what not for the model girl. These singers use verses like 'Jaane-khane ke yaar makhi firdi', 'Jain gaal di gani de manake', 'Ni van tere yaar vairne' etc. to destroy a woman and make the entire female caste an object of contempt. . When the singer says 'Saadi Maa Na Putta Nei Panna', on one hand he is pretending to be a son and on the other hand he is playing the character of a woman and saying, 'Tainu Yaar Bathare'. This joke which tarnishes the image of women is also tarnishing the present Punjabi society. The extent of this mental imbalance reaches when in Punjabi songs, model girls are shown smoking, drinking alcohol and the singer woos the common people with lyrics like 'pee-pee whiskey girl's color is red'. These singers, through their songs, portray the woman as a 'pigeon' (while hiding her compulsions from view), as if she is the only one to blame for all the problems in their relationship. Putting all the blame of his failed love on the woman, he leaves no stone unturned to prove that she is marrying someone else out of her own free will and the real reason for this is financial resources.
misrepresent a woman
This image of woman seen in current Punjabi music is causing social exploitation. In the society, every religion and class considers women as revered and consider them holders of high positions because of their dignity and nobility. In Hinduism it is addressed through Kanjak Puja and Devi Puja. Guru Nanak Dev Ji praises the glory of women by saying 'So why manda aakhiyae, jeetu jamah rajanu'. It is said that his mother Maryam played an important role in Baba Farid ji becoming a great Sufi and world famous philosopher. Similarly, the philanthropic character of Hazrat Muhammad Sahib and the role of his wife Khadija behind the creation of the Holy Quran Sharif written by him cannot be underestimated.
This does not match Punjabi culture in any way
The kind of obscene dance shown in today's Punjabi music cannot be linked with Punjabi culture in any way. Even the audience sitting at home looks at such songs with contempt.
need to act carefully
In today's society, women, who constitute half of the population, are being used as money earning machines by current Punjabi singers. The root cause of decline in Punjabi society can be considered to be the present singing, which needs to be worked very seriously to save it, so that women can get revival for social co-existence.
