Been doing this yearly list since 3 years..So will do one this year as well. I believe it was a brilliant year for women in the film industry...from Deepika Padukone as Piku playing Independent working women struggling with her hypochondriac Father as Piku, Kalki Koechlin who played an autistic character finding her sexuality, To the electric Datto by Kangana in Tanu weds Manu, Ayesha by Priyanka in Dil dhadakne Do playing a strong women to the exterior world with success in the bussiness world but with a failing marriage, shefali shah who is struck in a Failed marriage in the same movie sufferring from depression, To Anushka in NH10 finding her way out of a lawless land, Bhumi Padnekar in Dum Lagake playing a overwieght women in a marriage brought together by lies in 90s India, Richa chadda in Masaan, Radika Apte in Badlapur, Kashi Bhai and Mastaani in BhaajiRao, Ass Kicking Tapsee Pannu in Baby , Radhika Aape as Modern day women who takes a sex addict to her stride in Hunterr, Tabu in Drishyam as a Police officer in search of her son. Brilliant year for women in an otherwise just an okay year for bollywood.
