Since the last few years, Bollywood has portrayed some of the strongest, most audacious and unapologetic women ever to be seen in Hindi Cinema. A golden run that started with Vidya Balan and Richa Chaddha in Kahaani and Gangs Of Wasseypur in 2012 and reached a pinnacle last year with multiple films in varied genres such as Tanu Weds Manu, NH10 and Bajirao Mastani. Every single year, stories have been built around strong female characters who break every stereotypical mindset, prejudice and box office records.
It’s a mammoth task to shine and stand out when you’re surrounded by the best in Bollywood. It’s even more difficult when the lead is a box office baron and the story has been literally craved around him. But nothing and we mean nothing could stop our divas from taking over and making it look like cakewalk. From Ash as the grief-stricken sister of Sarabjit Singh to the three leading ladies who made sure that the world gives a damn about consent, 2016 was once again the year when women walked the talk. Take a bow ladies!
From the silver screen to the Olympics, the women have overshadowed the men and sucker punched every obstacle in their way. Yesterday was D-Day or as we like to call it Dangal Diwas and what’s a better way to celebrate it than recap the year and look back at the iron ladies of 2016.
