We are reading and hearing a lot about feminism off lately. So what is it about? Basically, feminism means women’s liberation or advocacy for the rights of women. However, it is being misunderstood by the bollywood industry these days. They are concluding it with equal pay and equal rights when the concept is actually beyond par.
Feminism in bollywood is taking a U turn as we see everybody is fighting over petty issues and concluding it with the term feminism. The misinterpretation is resulting with senseless statements and lots of controversies. They are accusing each other with the word feminist and taking the subject to a level which is actually not right.
According to me, feminism is that which can make a society such a place where gender issues will not determine what you have to choose in your life. The talk about equal rights is not where feminism lies. Rather, one has to think what they are actually standing for before they take the word feminist out from their minds.
Being a woman, I myself say that women cannot win every battle just by using the word feminist. Rather, they should take the issue and come out with its actual cause when putting across.
