Can't say. Have women been given enough films for us to see that whether they can pull audience or not? Women oriented films nearly always have darker or more adult oriented subjects, are more sober in nature. While your highest grossing films outside Aamir Khan cinema are more low effort, larger than life subjects. We just assume women can't pull audience to theatres. We have no idea if they actually can or can not. That's not the audience's fault, it's the industry being inherently biased.

I mean if Arjun Kapoor can get diverse genres like spy drama, historical, Siddharth Malhotra can get multiple big budget spy thrillers, heck Varun Dhawan or Ranbir or Ranveer can go from huge flops to big budget starring vehicles, why not give heroines a chance?

I don't particularly care for Kangana but Manikarnika opened well. Holiday slot, Easy subject, Big Budget, It opened. It sucked so it couldn't sustain. But it opened. Dirty Picture had a fun take on the standard woman Maryada biopic and it opened pretty well. So did Veere Di Wedding.

Once you have Deepika leading large war based period pieces, Kareena doing spy films, Katrina beating the crap out of 100 thugs, Alia becoming a superhero, you would know if they can or can not pull audience.

its also abt ego...

akshay is one of the producer arms of the film who's also acting.

would you expect him to drop his own image and put five ladies as a highlight on the poster...NAH !

also SRK putting up his female lead co-stars name before him in opening titles also seems like a joke. I don't even think anyone would even care or respect for that matter. the advertisement for triggering this particular initiative sounded too preachy and unsubstantial.

bollywood is a male dominated space, and even though i agree with Tapsee she should be careful with words, she's letting out her frustration which shall only make her look foolish n nothing else
