WOMEN CENTRIC FILMS IN 2014
January 20, 2014 | 4:12PM IST

Once upon a time in Bollywood, women centric films were regarded as a risk at the box-office as audiences were hardly interested in it. But, now the time has changed every year we see a lot of women centric films. Though, not all guarantee success, but filmmakers have started believing and making the movies whose central character is a woman.

In 2013 we saw few women centric films and now in 2014 we are having a lot of films in which we will see a woman as the protagonist.



Let's start with 'Lakshmi', a Nagesh Kukunoor film that will tackle the issue of human trafficking and child prostitution. Singer Monali Thakur will be making her B-Town debut with the film. The trailer of the film has grabbed the eyeballs due to its bold concept. Even Monali Thakur with the trailer seems to be confident.



In February, we will get to see two female centric films; Alia Bhatt starrer 'Highway' and Kangana Ranaut starrer 'Queen'. 'Highway' is directed by Imtiaz Ali and will be releasing on 21st Feb, while Vikas Bahl's 'Queen' is slated to release on 28th Feb. Well, Alia Bhatt starrer is a romantic-drama movie, Kangana's 'Queen' is a comedy flick. With the trailer both the actresses seems to be in full form with their respective films.



This Women Day will see the release of Madhuri Dixit and Juhi Chawla's 'Gulaab Gang'. The trailer of the film is out and it's quite impressive. Madhuri as well as Juhi, both are looking perfect in their parts. This will be for the first time, when two top actresses of 90's will share the screen space together. After, 'Gulaab Gang' another film in line is Subhash Ghai's 'Kaanchi...' The movie which stars newcomer Mishti as the main protagonist will be releasing somewhere in mid-2014.



Rani Mukherji will be seen in a totally different avatar in YRF's next titled 'Mardaani'. The film will be directed by Pradeep Sarkar and it is said to be the boldest film made under the banner of YRF. The movie will see Rani playing the role of a cop and the actress has started preparing for her role. 'Mardaani' is slated to release on 18th July. Anushka Sharma is all set to turn producer with her next flick 'NH10'. The actress will be seen as a lead in the film and will also be co-producing the film. The tentative release date of the film is 12th Sept.



Priyanka Chopra will be turning into a boxer for Mary Kom's biopic. The movie is directed by Omung Kumar and will see the actress playing the role of the Indian boxer Mary Kom. After showing us her comic timing in 'Queen', Kangana will be seen as a local gangster in 'Revolver Rani'. The actress who has been known for her glamorous look will be seen in an ugly avatar in the film. She says that it is the toughest film she has done in her career. The next in the list is 'Tina and Lolo'. The movie stars Sunny Leone and Karishma Tanna in the lead roles and it's a full fledge action film.



Sonam Kapoor proved her mettle in acting with the film 'Raanjhanaa' and now the actress has three releases in 2014, from which two will be women centric films, with her as a lead. Sonam will be seen in 'Khoobsurat', a remake of 1980 film of the same name and another film of the actress will be Arbaaz Khan Production's 'Dolly Ki Doli'. Richa Chhada and Kalki Koechlin are all set to team for Howard Rosemeyer's 'Jiah Aur Jiah'. They both will be playing the role of Jiah and will be swapping their real life cultural identities in the movie. Well, these experienced actresses are in full form with their women centric films, just one film old Rhea Chakraborty is also ready to play a protagonist in 'Sonali Cable'.

Well, it seems like this year our B-Town actresses are surely going to give our heroes a tough competition.
