The rise of the desi girls
Haroon finds out how Bollywood鈥檚 leading ladies are breaking the mould from not just playing the love interest but leading the film.
It鈥檚 Women鈥檚 History Month 鈥� so what better time to look back on how roles have changed for actresses in Bollywood from the 90s to now. From Kajol in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge to Taapsee Pannu in Thappad 鈥� this podcast takes a journey from the damsel in distress torn between her father or lover; to queens of the silver screen hogging the limelight. Haroon chats to Amrita Tanna from BizAsia and blogger Vic Das, aka London Ki Ladki, and dissects female representation in their favourite childhood films.
