Javed Akhtar Bashes 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan' For Its Portrayal Of The Empowered Woman

In a recent interview, Javed Akhtar bashed 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan.' He called the movie out for how it portrayed an empowered woman.

Yash Chopra바카라s 바카라Jab Tak Hai Jaan바카라 was released almost 12 years ago. The film was praised for its portrayal of women characters. However, in a recent interview, Javed Akhtar bashed the movie and called it 바카라ridiculous바카라 for how it portrayed an empowered woman.

Speaking about Bollywood바카라s struggle to portray a modern woman, Javed Akhtar shared his two cents on ABP Majha. The lyricist said, 바카라Who is the new woman? We are not clear about it. There are two reasons for it. Those who are liberal, if they define this as a modern woman, other liberals will question them. Those who are conservative, if they define it, they feel that they will lose a lot of their territory. So, they don바카라t want to do it.바카라

Javed Akhtar took the example of Yash Chopra and said, 바카라A director like Yash Chopra, who made decent, maybe not great but competent films throughout his career, his film 바카라Jab Tak Hai Jaan바카라 shows the heroine saying, 바카라I will sleep with men of all nationalities before getting married.바카라 To be empowered you don바카라t have to put in so much work. So, this is because it바카라s a debris and they are finding who is the modern woman in this.바카라

Taking the example of Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit, Javed Akhtar said that they did not get a big role in their career because people did not know what an ideal woman is like. Adding to it, he said, 바카라When today바카라s filmmakers try to make an image of an empowered woman, they get ridiculous because they don바카라t know what is an empowered woman.바카라

바카라Jab Tak Hai Jaan바카라 starred Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma, and Katrina Kaif in lead roles.
