It is really time Bollywood showed normal women- women who make sense and the hero should see more than looks and bubbliness / impulsiveness to be attracted to her. That means, the hero needs to be more sensible too! Among recent films, Singham for one was a disgrace in this aspect. (I know, the director and writer never even thought of even thinking about the love relationship except for "Where can we insert songs between the dhishoom dhishoom?" But still....) <br />But on a positive note, I liked Konkana Sen's role in Wake Up Sid and also Luck by Chance a lot. It showed a sensible, everyday girl, with dreams and thoughts and focus alongwith all the emotionality of being in love and out of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472527821199595669.post-48779407505446711332011-08-29T05:10:12.541-07:002011-08-29T05:10:12.541-07:00yes, and unfortunately, many men/women try to base...yes, and unfortunately, many men/women try to base their real life relationships on what they see in movies/soaps...Aditihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08313613390926059832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2472527821199595669.post-9016042580692052422011-08-28T08:03:45.676-07:002011-08-28T08:03:45.676-07:00Thank you for your lovely comment - it made my day...Thank you for your lovely comment - it made my day.<br />Really interesting obsevations you make here on how women are portrayed in some Bollywood and Hollywood films. I agree absolutely. I'm saddened that many teens of my generation have little understanding of, or interest in, what feminism actually means in terms of challenging the insidious stereotypes that are still ladled liberally into all areas of media presentation of women.Rosalindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11916652711513095607noreply@blogger.com
