indian films and female lead role

3. To call woman the weaker sex is a libel; it
is man's injustice to woman. If by strength
is meant brute strength, then, indeed, is
woman less brute than man. If by strength
is meant moral power, then woman is
immeasurably man's superior. Has she
not greater intuition, is she not more self-
sacrificing, has she not greater powers of
endurance, has she not greater courage?
Without her, man could not be. If
nonviolence is the law of our being, the
future is with woman. Who can make a
more effective appeal to the heart than
woman? (Mahatma Gandhi)

4. God made woman and women
made the world. Woman is
considered as a gift of God, and
always she becomes the symbol of
sacrifice, suffering and weak object
of the society. But these terms are
rejected in feminism, she got the
power to make herself and it is
called ‘ women empowerment’.

5. According to Virginia Woolf,
her book A Room of one’s own
is associated with the ideas of
the feminism. The book

themselves as well as victims of
men and are upholder of society
by acting as mirror to men.

and equal opportunities for Indian women.
 In addition to, half percentage of women in India are oppressed by her
lack of awareness and intelligibility. She takes it as fate of her life. This

13. Bollywood that is the term adopted, at the global level by now, to
define the prolific production of the cinema and cultural industry
of Bombay ( the former name for Mumbai), a language being
Hindi, or ‘Hinglish’, as the mixture between HIndi and English is
journalistically termed; it is essentially commercial-not ‘Art Cinem’,
that is-and so designed for distribution on a wide scale in Indian
and Abroad.

20. Since the beginning of creation women have been
fabric of human existence.Queen threw a potent
message to the world that being a woman is not

formal release. This film is a
mirror of the lower class
woman’s life in India,
everytime they become the
victim of upper course of
instruction.
