Actor Huma Qureshi talks on women represented on screen
Speaking in a panel discussion on ‘The role of media and entertainment in empowering women’ , Social Media Influencer Huma Qureshi underlines that there is shift in the way we are approaching stories.
The conversation was part of a special segment ‘Her Story, Her Voice’ organised by Netflix and the National Commission of Women.
She went on to add that there are many other colleagues of hers, who are urging for more assignments
She believes that it is an exciting time for female actors in the entertainment industry
Huma Qureshi most is most recognised for her performance in “Gangs of Wasseypur”, “Badlapur”, “Monica, O My Darling” and
OTT shows “Leila” and “Maharani”. She advocates that female actors are now keen on playing well-rounded characters. As of today, we are seeing more women-centric films, and the new term is female-led films.
Today, when we read av script, the character of the girl is not just contributing towards the hero’s journey or is not someone waiting for the war hero to return home.
Rather, we think why can’t a girl go on the border?
