Bollywood actor Nushrratt Bharuccha shared her insights on why male-oriented films often perform better at the box office. She noted that while change is gradual, female-led films that resonate with audiences can also succeed at a recent event.
Nushratt talks about male-dominated films
At the session as reported by India Today, Nushrratt reflected on why male-dominated films tend to perform better. She explained, “They are made less. Males constitute the majority of the population in our country. Change doesn’t happen instantly; it will take time. But it will definitely happen. Films about women that resonate with audiences tend to perform well. Mimi, Chhori, Dream Girl, Akeli, and Pink all did well. Heroism isn’t gender-based. Females can also act as heroes, though it’s rarely portrayed in our country.”
Nushratt on challenges faced by women in Bollywood
Speaking about the challenges women face in Bollywood, Nushrratt said, “It’s very difficult for a female actor. I’m an outsider. I arrived through auditions, and my journey to Chhori was very important for me.” She added that her entry into Bollywood began with comedy, which led to some stereotyping: “When I did Pyaar Ka Punchnama, my performance was seen as a joke. People thought I would only fit in commercial films. But when Chhori came along, I grabbed it and changed perceptions.”
