Women claim spotlight in India's macho movie industry
India's giant movie industry is known for its macho, men-centric storylines, but a wave of women filmmakers is helping to break the mould. 'More and more women are writing their stories, turning them into films,' said writer-director Reema Kagti, who believes the trend brings a more 'real and healthy perspective' to movies, with complex, outspoken women characters who are masters of their own story. The world's most populous nation churns out 1,800 to 2,000 films in more than 20 languages annually — and Hindi-language Bollywood is one of the largest segments, with more than 300 productions. Yet the films have often failed to portray women authentically, choosing instead to box them into being passive housewives or mothers who bow to societal pressure. A 2023 study by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) found that female characters in most chart-topping Indian films play the role of a romantic interest — and are 'fair skinned with a thin body type and a small screen time'. But industry insiders point to a slate of women-directed movies earning international acclaim that have also scored well at the tough domestic box office. Malayalam-language film 'All We Imagine as Light', a poetic tale about two nurses forging an intergenerational friendship, was the first Indian production to win the Grand Prix at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. Director Payal Kapadia shunned the one-dimensional portrayal of women on Indian screens which tends to mimic 'unrealistic standards set by society', she said, in favour of one that allows women to 'just be ourselves, authentic and true to how we are in everyday life.' India's official entry for the 2025 Oscars was Kiran Rao's 'Lost Ladies' — 'Laapataa Ladies' in Hindi — a comedy which challenges convictions surrounding marriage and womanhood, a sign of a shift — even if it missed the final shortlist. It is not only arthouse films that are winning hearts. Mainstream movies with strong women co-leads are filling up theatres as well. 'Stree 2', a horror comedy featuring Bollywood star Shraddha Kapoor, smashed box office records last year, beating earnings by superstar Shah Rukh Khan's action flick 'Jawan'. And 'Crew', a heist comedy about flight attendants, was widely seen as a win for women-centric movies. 'Women still face challenges in telling stories from their perspective', said actor-producer Dia Mirza. 'However, the increasing presence of female directors, producers and writers is paving the way for more inclusive narratives.' Movies can also tackle the way regressive traditions manifest in the daily lives of Indian families. 'Mrs.', a Hindi-language film released in February, dives into the unseen labour of a newlywed housewife, her silenced aspirations and the societal conditioning she struggles with. 'Across social media, you can see people posting -- that the majority of women in India go through this turmoil,' said Lakshmi Lingam, a Mumbai-based sociologist. She points out that there was no backlash to the film. 'The voices of women saying, 'Yes, this is true and I can see myself there' is very high,' she said. 'So, there is that kind of ecosystem of women resonating with many of the ideas these women filmmakers are making.' Industry figures suggest progress is being made, albeit slowly. Last year, 15 per cent of Indian movies surveyed hired women for key production positions, up from 10 percent in 2022, according to a report by Ormax Media and Film Companion Studios. Konkona Sen Sharma, an actor-director who is a champion of women-oriented cinema, is cautiously optimistic about the role women will play in the future. Women are increasingly present in the film industry, but 'we still don't have enough women in positions of power,' she said. Filmmaker Shonali Bose points out that women directors need the independence and financial backing to tell new stories. 'Our problem is not to do with gender, it is getting to make what we want to make,' Bose said. 'When we want to make world cinema, we are facing market forces which are getting increasingly conservative.' Agence France-Presse

Shah Rukh Khan wows cast of ‘Come Fall in Love – The DDLJ' musical in surprise visit in London
Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan paid a surprise visit to the London rehearsal room of "Come Fall in Love - The DDLJ' musical by Aditya Chopra. Jena Pandya, who is playing Simran in the musical, said: "Meeting Shah Rukh Khan and having him in the rehearsal room was such an honour. He was so generous with his time and support for the show.' She added: "Being able to show him some of the iconic scenes that himself and Kajol originally established was an incredible feeling and will be a long lasting memory for me. I can't wait to head to Manchester next week and put this story on stage.' The stage adaptation of the beloved 1995 Hindi romantic blockbuster Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, in which SRK starred as Raj and Kajol as Simran, is set to make its UK premiere at Manchester Opera House from May 29 to June 21. "Come Fall in Love - The DDLJ Musical' is set in the UK and India and is being directed by Aditya Chopra. Ashley Day, who essays Rog, shared that when SRK arrived in the rehearsal room and met the full company, "it was a moment that quietly landed on all of us – special in a way that didn't need words.' "Watching everyone take him in, I could feel how meaningful it was. He greeted us all with such love and genuine excitement about what we've been building. I can't imagine what it must feel like to see a project – beloved by millions – being reimagined as a musical 30 years later. And yet, he kept asking to see more!' He added: "The words we shared privately are for one Raj to another Rog – but I will say, he was very happy. It was an unbelievable afternoon. I'll never forget it.' Music duo and composers Vishal and Sheykhar also spoke about meeting Shah Rukh Khan. Vishal said, "Having Shah Rukh visit our workshop was an amazingly positive experience for all of us. Raj met Rog, so to speak! What a wonderful moment in time. Of course, crucially for us, he loved the songs, the voices and the energy of the performances!' "He met and engaged with every single person after watching the rehearsals and even relived his musical-theatre experiences from his early days. It's safe to say our cast and ensemble will always treasure their time with him.' Sheykhar added that SRK's visit on the sets of "Come Fall In Love' was a surprise that he thinks the entire cast and crew will cherish forever. "His aura and sheer presence aside, meeting the original 'Raj' was an absolute delight for all of them. Theatre holds a very special place for Mr Shah Rukh Khan as his career began there and every member of the cast and crew could feel his pure love for theatre and the craft.' Sheykhar added: "The experience of meeting him and interacting with him is a moment that will be etched in their hearts forever.' Indo-Asian News Service
