Women at War

Priyanka Chopra is honing her skills in martial arts for her roles in Love Story 2050 and Drona; Aishwarya Bachchan is learning the art of sword play for Jodhaa Akbar; and Deepika Padukone is practising hard on her breath-taking stunts for Made in China.

The leading ladies of Bollywood are flexing their muscles with a newfound excitement to usher in the New Year with loads of action in their forthcoming films. So, does that mean it is a new phase heralding the advent of action heroines in Hindi cinema? According to filmmaker Junaid Memon, it is a trend which is getting increasingly popular, and is reminiscent of old Hindi films like Fearless Nadia. Says he, “It’s good that directors and producers are working on action-packed women-oriented scripts. They have realised that today’s female actors are not mere glam dolls, and that they can do much more. It shows that a female actor, too, can carry an action film on her shoulders.”
