Freud�s theory of psychology that he referred as psychoanalysis has been accepted and extended in analyzing literature and other arts too. Freud believes that literature and other arts are like dreams and psycho symptoms which contain imaginative fancies, so literature and other arts are capable to fulfill wishes that are commonly restricted by social standards and norms. My research paper is an attempt to focus on the psychoanalysis of female protagonists in Bharadwaj�s worldwide acclaimed movies �Maqbool�, �Omkara� and �Haider� which are an adaptation of Shakespeare�s famous tragedies �Macbeth�, �Othello� and �Hamlet�. These female characters are just like puppet in grip of unconscious urges. This study further analysis human�s helplessness under the arrest of its uncontrolled passions. Through this study, I want to find out the strong and weak unconscious fancies of Nimmi, Dolly and Gazala and their fight against their own id, ego and superego which brutally influenced them mentally as well as physically. Nimmi who is a complex character, struggles as a mistress of don and as a beloved of Maqbool. Dolly suffers mentally due to male�s suspicious nature and patriarchal society whereas Gazala tries to make conciliation with her second marriage and with her adult obsessive son.
