Malayalam actress Parvathy Thiruvothu바카라s social media profile is unlike that of most mainstream actors. Her posts are issue-based, and mostly women-centric, and she describes herself as 바카라actor-feminist-shape-shifter바카라 in her bio. When she was invited as a speaker to the Outlook Speakout event, she made it clear that she wouldn바카라t be speaking just as an actor, but as a core member of the Women in Cinema Collective (WCC), a first-of-its kind organisation formed after the infamous actress assault case in Kerala. A two-time winner of Kerala State Film Award for Best Actress for Ennu Ninte Moideen and Take Off, Parvathy plays a critical role in building a new narrative in Malayalam cinema. She won the Best Actor Award (Female) at the 48th International Film Festival of India and also the National Film Award바카라Special Mention for her role in Take Off. She made her Bollywood debut with Qarib Qarib Singlle. Unafraid of losing her popularity while joining public campaigns, she belÂieves her influence should be a catalyst for social change.
During a panel discussion at Outlook Speakout, she said she considers cinema her driving force and believes it is a tool for change. We need to speed up the pace of changing the content of films, she said, and stressed that the cinema workspace should be free from gender discrimination. 바카라It is important to set an example,바카라 she said. On the sidelines of the event, she said, 바카라It바카라s not about empowering women. There are men, women and transgender people. Every aspect of gender is a spectrum. Sexuality too is a spectrum. We need to stop thinking in binaries바카라Š. I바카라ve been an actor since I was 17. The urge to tell stories has driven my career and it helps me to judge people less.바카라
For Parvathy, the challenge was to overcome the fear of fear. 바카라We only fear what we don바카라t understand and I hate to be scared. That is why I keep investigating,바카라 she said.
