The thinking woman: An unwelcome truth
Namrata is a writer, editor, and book reviewer. A published author her stories and articles have been published in various anthologies and magazines. After being an investment banker for a decade she found her true calling in books. With numbers playing in her mind and words throbbing through her veins for close to a decade now she writes, reads, and of course forgets to count them. She is currently working on her debut work of fiction based on Partition. When not reading, she can be found writing about books, music, and films on Twitter @privytrifles LESS ... MORE She thinks. She asks. And suddenly, she becomes a threat. In every sphere of life, the thinking woman is viewed with suspicion. Not because she lacks charm or beauty, but because she refuses to silence her mind. Whether it's in cinema, literature, or even the very interviews that promote women, the message is the same: keep your thoughts light, your questions few, and your opinions palatable. The 'play dumb' script: Acting dumb for popularity It's a bitter truth of Indian popular culture that actresses often feel pressured to 'play dumb' to become more likable and marketable. In interviews, many actresses are subtly — or sometimes overtly — encouraged to downplay their intellect, avoid controversial opinions, and stick to safe, agreeable answers. Compliments pour in for 'sweet,' 'innocent,' or 'simple' answers, while articulate, nuanced responses are met with discomfort or dismissiveness. This expectation is not only unfair but deeply insulting. Women who choose to express themselves thoughtfully risk losing mass appeal. The pressure to conform to this image has silenced many voices. Women who think and speak out: The exception, not the rule Take Vidya Balan, Taapsee Pannu, and Sushmita Sen — three women who have refused to stay quiet. They are outspoken, politically aware, and vocal about feminism, mental health, and social issues. Despite their talent and popularity, their outspokenness often leads to polarized reactions. Vidya Balan, known for portraying strong, complex women on screen, is equally fearless off-screen — speaking openly about women's rights and gender stereotypes. Taapsee Pannu, who speaks candidly about industry politics and social injustices, has faced trolling and backlash for her bluntness. Sushmita Sen, a former Miss Universe and an icon of independence, consistently challenges patriarchal norms with her unapologetic confidence and liberal views. Yet, all three are sometimes labeled as 'too political,' 'controversial,' or 'difficult,' showing how society is uncomfortable with women who think loudly and live authentically. Contemporary Indian literature: Voices that refuse to be silenced The literary landscape in India today features fearless women writers who refuse to simplify female experience or shy away from uncomfortable truths. Writers like Meena Kandasamy and Nivedita Menon bring powerful feminist critiques that challenge caste, patriarchy, and social injustice head-on. Nilanjana Bhowmick's work delves into the complexities of womanhood and identity, refusing to shy away from portraying women who think deeply and live unapologetically. Annie Zaidi, through her essays and fiction, highlights the struggles and resilience of women who question societal norms and demand visibility. Tishani Doshi's poetry and prose explore the intersections of gender, identity, and belonging with a sensitivity that refuses to let women's voices be sidelined. Together, these authors and activists create a chorus of modern Indian women who think critically, ask questions, and demand change — even when the world is uncomfortable hearing them. The real cost: Popularity vs. authenticity The sad reality is that women who ask questions and express strong opinions often lose out on popularity. The system rewards compliance and punishes dissent. Even on social media, the trolling of women who dare to think critically and challenge norms is relentless. This extends beyond cinema and literature. In workplaces, women who negotiate salaries or question policies are branded 'bossy' or 'aggressive.' In politics, outspoken women leaders are constantly scrutinized more harshly than their male counterparts. Why does the world fear a thinking woman? Because a thinking woman is unpredictable. She doesn't fit into neat boxes. She disrupts the comfortable narrative of docility. She forces the world to reflect and sometimes, to change. The discomfort is not because thinking women are threatening by nature, but because they threaten the fragile power structures that rely on silence and obedience. The bright future of thinking women Despite the barriers, the thinking woman is rising. For every troll, there are millions who listen. For every closed door, a new path is carved. For every attempt to dim her voice, her fire only grows stronger. The world may fear her now — but it cannot stop her. Because the thinking woman is here, speaking up, questioning, and demanding a seat at every table. And this time, she's not going anywhere.

Madonna's emotional plea to Pope Leo XIV: ‘Please go to Gaza before it's too late'
Pop icon Madonna has made a direct plea to Pope Leo XIV, urging him to travel to Gaza to bring attention and relief to children caught in the ongoing conflict. In a heartfelt Instagram post, the singer appealed to the pontiff, stressing the urgency of the humanitarian situation. In her message, Madonna addressed Pope Leo XIV directly: Please go to Gaza and bring your light to the children before it's too late. As a mother, I cannot bear to watch their suffering. The children of the world belong to everyone. You are the only one of us who cannot be denied entry. We need the humanitarian gates to be fully opened to save these innocent children. There is no more time. Please say you will go. Love, Madonna.' The singer stressed that political maneuvering is inadequate in the face of such suffering: 'Politics cannot affect change. Only consciousness can. Therefore I am reaching out to a man of God.' She made clear that her appeal was not about blame or political sides, adding: 'I am not pointing fingers, placing blame or taking sides. Everyone is suffering. Including the mothers of the hostages. I pray that they are released as well.' Madonna linked the plea to a personal milestone — her son Rocco's birthday. 'Today is my son Rocco's birthday. I feel the best gift I can give to him as a mother is to ask everyone to do what they can to help save the innocent children caught in the crossfire in Gaza.' She said her motivation was rooted in maternal empathy and a desire to prevent further loss of life: 'I am merely trying to do what I can to keep these children from dying of starvation.' The 66-year-old artist's message comes as aid agencies warn of worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza, with limited access to food, clean water, and medical assistance. Her post amplifies calls from international groups urging immediate action to protect civilians — particularly children — in the conflict zone. Pope Leo XIV, the first American-born pontiff and the 267th leader of the Catholic Church, began his papacy in May. The Pope has spoken on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. During a Mass for the Jubilee of Young People in Rome last week, the Pope said: "In communion with Christ, our peace and hope for the world, we are closer than ever to young people who suffer the most serious evils which are caused by other human beings. We are with the young people of Gaza." he said.
