Love what Parvathy says, we need parenthood stories from ALL genders and backgrounds. It doesn't have to be a rare feature film!
Postpartum depression is a real thing. Thank you for bringing it into mainstream conversation.

Omg... how can it be... when we have a bundle of joy in our hands...the reason for depression may be some other external factor but not definitely from delivering a baby. We may be working hard infact it won't be tiring too.

@@shobana1895 Ive seen this very closely. It is true. Have you heard of prisoners depression? It happens when long term prisoners end thwir time and go free. There is a strong lack of purpose that hits human beings at high times too. And postpartum depression is more hormonally driven than emotionally. It happens due to the sudden massive change in the female body after the delivery.

As an amateur actor who has just started exploring the craft, Amruta Subhash's description of "Brahmakshan" is so spot on! That's exactly what I crave and what keeps bringing me back to the craft. Wonderful conversation!
These women are so classy 😍 I love to see more of them and their positivity. Good luck to wonder women team
What a lovely energy of joy all the four women have and it comes out in the interview! Looking forward to watching the movie!
Malayalam cinema is far ahead in making female leading movies. loved movies like Chathuram, Jaya Jaya Jaya Jaya he and Kumari .Now waiting for wonder woman 🔥

What I liked mostly in malayalam cinema is stories that are inclusive of everyone. Even if women are central to movie it's mostly about telling good stories that happen to have women as core of the film. In bollywood it's heroine centric and or basically there's no story, just having women for some reason for whole duration of movie that talks alot but actually has nothing to say that's relatable.

Nithya is a darling ❤️❤️❤️❤️ What an intelligent lady she is ❤
When anjali speaks... I literally get goosebumps.... 😍😍
Absolutely fabulous session.. The energy of these wonderful ladies is so vibrant and positive..❤️ Looking forward to watch Wonder Women this weekend..!!
No doubt all of these women are incredible actors. Special mention to the director Anjali, man she's so gentle and firm in articulating and putting her ideas out there. So delightful to watch her speak. Such a smart woman!!!
Delight to watch these powerhouses together..have to definitely catch this one.nitya and parvathy have defined the images of refined ,intelligent powerful women for our generation..kudos to Ms Menon as well.
I actually go to theatre for Nitya and Nayanthara.. I don't look at the male lead
Had so much fun watching this interview.. one of the best! ❤️ Agree with Nithya, we have seen lots of movies about abuse and hardships of women. Those movies had spread more fear among girls rather than awareness. Its high time to make more movies that shows the fun part of women that is light and inspiring to young girls.
I love how lovely Parvathy and Nithya switched their footwear 😂! I loved this interview more than i thought I would ! 💕

It's absolutely amazing listening to these ladies....
Anupamaji, excellent conversation by you with highly talented actresses. You have been always appreciating the talent like Vijay Setupathy, Samantha and many more from south. You are aware that in bollywood, there are very good actresses like Tabu, Neena Gupta, Alia, Huma, Tapsee and Kangana but the content rooted with Indian culture and tradition is missing both on screen and off screen. People like you have the power to reach them and advise them to be Indian than American in thinking and living.
Whenever I watch aanny literally aanny Nithya menon interview I just kept watching her face, her face is like a heaven for me her eyes, her lips, smile, chin, everything is just over perfection my god what a face she have😍😍😍😍😍😘😘😘😘😘😘
Anjali is very mature and have an understanding how to give right answers
What a good interview!
Nithya menon always my favourite
It's always such a pleasure to listen to this director. Kudos madam...
Wow, such a nice personality in Anjali, nice voice , capable . Amazing quality not to see male and female as different. She sees everyone as human being. I do that too. That is first step for bringing change. Amazing talent on screen.
Nithya ♥️♥️
Thank you film companion.
The reason why sensitive or female oriented films & content work on OTT more than theatres is because people are still scared to feel their feelings in public and its way easier to just tear up alone.

If there's a thing such as women oriented films(it has become cliche) then this movie puts story and characters first and above everything else. It just so happened that women and their journey are central part to this movie.

If we are asked to choose the top two performers among woman actors in India, It will be Kangana and Parvathy Thiruvoth.They both have taken that extra effort to take risks and experiment with characters with multiple layers. Three cheers to woman hood and sisterhood .Excited to watch the next Anjali Menon magic.

Grace antony says she wants comedy films, nithya says she want lightness, parvathy says she dont need that thrillers and want gender sensitive films more often .. And then comes LJP breaking all this!! Mammotty came up with a rorshach thriller.. Amal neerad with bheeshma telling 'no plans to change'..Prithvi with mass Empuran..!! Males are males!! Still searching for a heath ledger joker role in a female.. Males are competitive
Nice to see all together, nice voices
So no one is talking about how nithya and parvathy basically said male actors are jealous of other co actors and female actors are not ! If table was other way around internet will go havoc on that..And call the one a male chauvinist and whatsoever...women Privilege at its peak 😷

Talking about spectacle films having success at box office, its nothing to do with gender as black panther 2 movie was largely driven by women, unknown face for a villain. Despite that people in India made this movie, when the cast are not typical hollywood superstars, a big success. Yes it's comic action entertainer genre so it's theatre experience film but at the end of the day the story counts. Also there are male centric films that have gone to ott and not theaters because if story is for niche audience regardless of who the actor or actress is it'll find it's audience through ott. If story has commercial value placed on it then it'll get theatrical release.

In my opinion, you can't compare Wakanda Forever to this purely because Wakanda Forever has a history-mqking prequel, it's a Marvel movie and has some really big names attached to it, it is something people were already looking forward to before they could even announce it! A first-time movie, on the other hand, would be completely independent in that sense and so it is natural to expect a very different reaction or acceptance to it. Not to mention how the audience here is still only getting used to watching women take up space and be more than just someone in the male lead's life. No matter how much we speak about it here, at the end of the day, the masses still haven't reached a level of acceptance or maturity where they watch a movie purely for the content and art. It is still (unfortunately) highly gender-based. People would much rather prefer going for a male ensemble or mae thriller than one with people from other genders. Trust me, I know it is beautiful to not have gender as a criterion for such decisions and I'd love for the audience to grow to that kind of an approach. But we're not there yet. Some of us here are striving for it and let's hope that happens soon
Parvathy and nithya really sister

i know a director is the one who has to speak more about his/her film. but if anupama is only interested in talking to anjali more, then why bring other three women to this interview? you could do a solo interview with anjali instead of making those three actress sat idly most of the time.

Menon’s worked under Brahmins looking after their property. Menokii or Menon was a title given to supervisors. Individuals inheriting the surname of Menon these days from birth is similar to case of taking on the Doctor /Dr. title of father who studied and got Ph.D title. Poor father worked hard for the title and rest of generation are using his title as a freebie. All the people who talk against sexism and fight for equality should relinquish their caste title for good. Caste is the vestige of an unequal society where human’s were graded by birth rather than their own contribution to the society.
