Navarasa Xxx New Work -
The classical Indian aesthetic theory of Navarasa (śṛṅgāra, hāsya, karuṇā, raudra, vīra, bhayānaka, bībhatsa, adbhuta, śānta) has traditionally been mapped onto performance, literature, and sculpture. This paper proposes a new framework——that examines how contemporary "transgressive" works (in web series, immersive theatre, and explicit cinema) challenge, expand, or distort the original rasa model. By analyzing recent case studies (including the anthology Navarasa on Netflix and independent erotico-political art), the paper argues that the 'XXX' denotes not pornography but excess, unclassifiable affect , and the rupture of normative emotional taxonomies. We propose a tenth rasa: Vilakṣaṇa (the uncanny/queer).
