Vidya Balan says its ‘ridiculous’ Sanjay Leela Bhansali walked away with credit for the success of Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi

Bollywood actress Vidya Balan called out the double standard of the industry after Gangubai Kathiawadi’s blockbuster success wasn’t credited enough to Alia Bhatt whereas Sanjay Leela Bhansali won all the praises. The actress said that Bhatt wasn’t praised in the same way the majority of male actors are whenever they deliver a super hit.

Vidya Balan says its ‘ridiculous’ Sanjay Leela Bhansali walked away with credit for the success of Alia Bhatt starrer Gangubai Kathiawadi

During a conversation on a roundtable interview conducted by Film Companion, Vidya asked, “How come Gangubai did well? If a woman’s film does well, it’s the director’s credit, and this is ridiculous.”

She said, “We worked so hard as women to have a certain standing today, where we’re headlining films. More and more actresses are doing that. I love how post-pandemic because the men’s films aren’t working, they suddenly turn around and say that the women’s films aren’t going to work all the more. How ridiculous! I really want to say, ‘What about Gangubai?’ It did more than most male-driven films.”

Alia Bhatt has had a tremendous year beginning with Gangubai Kathiawadi which entered Rs. 100 crore club followed by the release of Darlings and Brahmastra. She will next star in her Hollywood debut Heart Of Stone with Gal Gadot and Jamie Dornan for Netflix. She also has Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani starring alongside Ranveer Singh, Dharmendra, Jaya Bachchan and Shabana Azmi.

The Miracle Club review – Maggie Smith can’t save this rocky road trip to Lourdes

Laura Linney is upstaged by older co-stars Smith and Kathy Bates in this sentimental tale about a group of Dublin women who go on a spiritual journey together Who’s up for a golden-hued heartwarmer set in 60s Ireland starring Kathy Bates and Maggie Smith about women with secret fears and dreams going on a church trip to Lourdes and finally finding the real miracle is their new compassion for each other? The answer to this question could well have been … me. I have a liking for a gentle tale and there is nothing necessarily wrong with, just occasionally, showing Ireland and the church of this period with something other than outrage and horror. But The Miracle Club does not at any time, to use a discredited metaphor, throw away its crutches and walk. And it’s painful to note that this is largely because of the way film can’t convincingly use that estimable actor Laura Linney in a central role. She is upstaged by the older, fruitier performances and doesn’t hold her own with a more seri...

Omen (Augure) review – Baloji offers secrets and sorcery in Congolese homecoming

Musician and film-maker’s story about a Belgian-Congolese man who takes his white wife to DRC to meet the family is complex, risky and bold Congolese-born rapper, musician and film-maker Baloji (né Serge Baloji Tshiani) was a prizewinner at Cannes last year with this feature directing debut: a dynamic, teemingly populated, multistranded and tonally elusive picture which I initially thought would benefit from comparisons with Jordan Peele’s horror classic Get Out. In fact, it’s more complicated than that. Koffi (Marc Zinga) is a Congolese man living in Belgium and married to a white woman, Alice (Lucie Debay). They are about to have twins and Koffi feels that he cannot put it off any further: whatever his family will think, the couple must journey back to the Democratic Republic of the Congo to let them see Alice and let them get used to the idea. It particularly means propitiating his fiercely conservative mother Mujila (Yves-Marina Gnahoua). He takes care to shave off his westernis...
