Are you guys tired of the male dominated industry? In most of our films the guys tend to dominate the women power. Would you like seeing Bollywood work more with women oriented films?

Through the past we've seen some very powerful women oriented films with power pact performances by the leading ladies in their respected films like Anjaam, Mother India, Umrao Jaan (old and new), Zubedia, Lajja, Fashion, Chameli, Page 3, Mehndi, Raja Ki Aayegi Barat, Laaga Chunari Mein Daag, and a ton more.

Do you think Bollywood should have more women oriented films? Or is Bollywood perfectly fine with more male dominated films?

Your views?

Tellyland is women-oriented & bolly land is male-dominated, works for me, i dnt have any problem with it😊 But wished some movies nowadays had actresses act more than showing their glamour.

I love women oriented movies. My favorite movie of all time is Aradhana, Anjaam, and most of Urmila's movies
I thought Rani's best performance is Laaga chunari mein daag
They should do more movies like these

WIth a good script a women-oriented film can work.
The best example is 'Fashion'.
It catapulted Priyanka to the top and won her numerous awards.

Lajja was a film with outstanding performances from all it's cast members: Madhuri Dixit, Manisha Koirala, Mahima Choudhary and Rekha.

Zubeidaa was Karisma Kapoor's best performance hands down.

I am looking forward to 'No One Killed Jessica' because as they say in the promos: "This Winter, Two Women, Slap The System, In The Face' - outstanding, cant wait to see it. Rani and Vidya will kick some butt for sure.
