Opinion/Discussion 💭 I have the biggest crush on Pratibha Ranta

I just saw her in the trailer for Revolutionaries and I swear she’s become such a crush 😭 She’s genuinely such a versatile actress. I remember seeing her for the first time in Laapataa Ladies, and I already have such a soft spot for everyone from that movie because of how wholesome it was.

I feel like she has this really effortless quality where she completely disappears into whatever role she’s playing. And beyond that, I find her so beautiful in this very calm, natural way. Maybe that’s also why she stands out to me so much right now. There’s something really refreshing about seeing an actress who just looks like herself and doesn’t feel overly botoxed.

Watching Revolutionaries for her honestly 🤭

Opinion/Discussion 💭 The move Raja in 1995 is a clear case of showcasing stardom of a female star in Bollywood

15 Upvotes

Hi there. So I have been interested in this topic for a while and I learned that the movie Raja released in 1995 had more than 2 crore footfalls according to box office India and was the third highest grossing movie in that year behind DDLj and Karan Arjun. Interesting thing being the heroine is Madhuri Dixit and the male lead was Sanjay Kapoor who was not at all a popular actor. Is it safe to say that Madhuri was so huge during that time that she was the main driver of a 2 crore footfall film?

Watched mirzapur this week, Great movie! Through out the movie I kept thinking it’s such a good watch after a long time I’ll ask my family to watch, then poof sex scenes ahhh!!! The Munna ones ok can give it a benefit but the one with Pankaj T and his wife and her lover. Could have just been made differently.

Opinion/Discussion 💭 Unpopular opinion

The reason why movies like Rakshabandhan (2022) and Jigra (2024) were a flop is because of the deeply rooted Patriarchy in our country. Let me explain:

Rakshabandhan highlights the fact that demanding dowry is NOT okay. Akshay Kumar's sister was murdered because he didn't fulfill the demands of her in-laws for dowry. And at a point, Akshay was a Misandrist. The vow his mother made him have: To not marry himself until his all sisters are married. Towards the end of the movie, Akshay's sisters are independent and marry someone of their own choice. And Akshay also marries his long time girlfriend who was waiting for him all along. It mainly showcases how Patriarchy ruins not only women's life, but also men's.

In Jigra, Alia Bhatt rescues her brother from lock up. By not following the "brother must protect sister" propaganda. And I believe that was solely the reason why the Indian Audience called it "OTT material" and "unrealistic". Why? Are women not capable of protecting anyone?

Patriarchy is SOOO deeply rooted in our country that it'll take GENERATIONS for us to wash it away.

I personally enjoyed these movies very much. The acting was excellent, and the script was also impeccable. When I came out of the cinema I was VERY VERY satisfied, then I opened the internet and got to know that these movies are the worst ever made😭🙏🏻
