Da Vinci code
























 1. Brown states on his website that his books are not anti-Christian, though he is on a 'constant spiritual journey' himself, and says that his book The Da Vinci Code is simply "an entertaining story that promotes spiritual discussion and debate" and suggests that the book may be used "as a positive catalyst for introspection and exploration of our faith."

Yes,as the protagonist Robert and antagonist Leigh and both have their own intentions for searching of the Holy Grail, Even Robert comes to know the truth as he have the faith so he did not reveal it.
 
2. You have studied ‘Genesis’ (The Bible), ‘The Paradise Lost’ (John Milton) and ‘The Da Vinci Code’ (Dan Brown). Which of the narrative/s seem/s to be truthful? Whose narrative is convincing to the contemporary young mind?

As per my point of view, it seems like Da Vinci Code has its relevence with present time. Only faith in God without questioning the main aspect is not today’s cup of tea as the India is growing and the universe has the questions to be searched out.

3. What harm has been done to humanity by the biblical narration or that of Milton’s in The Paradise Lose? What sort of damage does narrative like ‘The Vinci Code’ do to humanity?

Bilblical stories are just like making the moral sense in us without asking you should be quiet but Da vinci code is a rebel against this idea so it may be the reason that we can not accepting this and it was banned novel. If we question to religion it is not bad in one sense but it is like making a sense in believing  

4. What difference do you see in the portrayal of 'Ophelia' (Kate Winslet) in Kenneth Branagh's Hamlet, 'Elizabeth' (Helena Bonham Carter) in Kenneth Branagh's Mary Shelley's Frankenstein or 'Hester Prynne' (Demi Moore) in Roland Joffé's The Scarlet Letter' or David Yates's 'Harmione Granger' (Emma Watson) in last four Harry Potter films - and 'Sophie Neuve' (Audrey Tautau) in Ron Howard's The Da Vinci Code? How would justify your answer?

characterization of these women characters are different. The journey of women in its treatment we can find the feminist point of view are established in the portrayal of these women. Shakespeare and others writers from Elizabethan age they have not woman in their plays something like of privelidge .Harmione is the most powerful character to establish a woman as strong by J.K Rowling.

5. Do novel / film lead us into critical (deconstructive) thinking about your religion? Can we think of such conspiracy theory about Hindu religious symbols / myths?

yes, movie leads us towards the critical thinking on religion on we are following it has also the symbolism in it. We also have the question on God as we are used to listen their adventurous story so we doubt that truly the existence of God was there or not or it was only the imagination a man to establish the mannerism in people by giving the moral ideas in stories.

6. Have you come across any similar book/movie, which tries to deconstruct accepted notions about Hindu religion or culture and by dismantling it, attempts to reconstruct another possible interpretation of truth?

Not exact I came across this type of movie or novel.
