Mistress of Spices: Slewing the Fiction to Film
20.07.2018 Manikandan C
The current analysis throws light on Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni’s novel, The Mistress of Spices. The story adopts a multifarious strategy for portraying diasporic identity and elaborates the cinematic adaptation of the same. A film adaptation is the transfer of a written work, in whole or in part, to feature film. A common form of film adaptation is the use of a novel as the basis of a feature film. The novel, The Mistress of Spices has undergone the process of making as a movie. The cinematic rendition of the novel by the director Mayeda and the scriptwriter Chadha endure a different look of the novel in general, leaving the audience with a clear understanding that the adaptation is the film makers’ personal and political opinion.
