About Prashant Pradhan
Passionate researcher examining the intersection of media representation and social identity, with a focus on how minority communities are portrayed across film and digital platforms. Recently submitted doctoral thesis exploring Queer representation in contemporary Hindi cinema and its reception.My research interests span communication theories, digital culture dynamics, reception studies and the evolving landscape of media representation. I\'m particularly drawn to understanding how emerging digital platforms are reshaping narrative possibilities for underrepresented voices and communities.As an early career scholar, I\'m eager to contribute to academic discourse while building bridges between theoretical frameworks and real-world media impact. Currently seeking opportunities to engage with young minds through Assistant Professor roles and collaborate on research projects, present findings at conferences, and engage with fellow scholars working at the nexus of media studies and social representation.
