DNA: Heroines go gray --- Rati - Page 2

I love what RP Said 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏...

Actor Rati Pandey aka Hitler Didi of Zee TV feels that today, shows are trying to project women as fighters, rather than show them as the usual silent against all evils sort of characters. "Earlier, there were shows like Rajni, Shanti which initiated a trend that is taken ahead by today's shows," says Rati. "Audiences don't want to see saas-bahu sagas. Women have progressed and they are independent, strong and stand for their rights. My show too talks about a young girl who is the sole breadwinner of the family. She takes on her family's responsibility from a young age and soon she realises that to make ends meet in today's world, besides being hardworking, women need to be a bit brute to rise. Due to all this she tends to become very strict with everyone around. So at times she may look gray but she's just fighting for existence," she adds.

Gone are the days when women would suffer silently, it wasn't because they were good but because they couldn't do otherwise. So its good that now they are presenting the human side of a woman's character..even movies are getting more real and the protagonists are more like us...sweet yet peppered with some quirks and drawbacks...

Its the awakening time for the TV industry when they are finally shedding the over simplifies, oh-so-good bahu type roles for the more practical ones...heroine bhi wahi...vamp bhi wohi...unko kisi aur ki kya zaroorat...😆
