  • Associating beauty standards with fair skin has been the furtive norm in India for decades and the people with such fair skin were the ones who used to qualify to become actors. But certain female legends from the Malayalam Film Industry have redefined beauty standards in the recent times and this video is about them.

      No. Thats a wrong statement. There is beautiful, not so beautiful, and ugly. This applies to people, art, things, etc. What matters is acceptance. Acceptance by ones self and others. An average looking person is always average looking. Beauty shouldn’t be a criteria when treating a person. Afterall human is human and everyone has to be treated equally. Nobody should worry because they are not as beautiful as the celebrities. This is not because beauty is in beholder’s eyes, but everyone is important and special, and under the skin, we all are made from bones and flesh.

    some of my favourite Genre - women movies
    1)Uyare -Parvathy (Powerful story of a woman who faces an unfortunate event in her life while she is about to become a pilot and how she fights back)
    2)Thira - Shobhana (Again a perfect movie for women. Shows the right form of women empowerment ie a lady doctor’s fight against human trafficking)
    3)Helen - Anna Ben (Survival thriller, filled with hours of tension and uncertainty)
    3)Kappela - Anna Ben (Girl gets acquainted with a guy through a wrong number and the events that follow)

      Uravasi has been in the industry for a long time anf has never taken a break. But bollywood actresses like Deepika and Anushka Sharma are still working, acting and producing movies. Even Kareena Kapoor is still there. South film still is very dominant. Most production companies are by men and they've been here for decades while women are always replaced every 5 years or aren't given priority or spot light they had in their 20s

      This title of “lady superstar” has an underlying tone of misogyny. Please don’t use it. It suggests that a “superstar” is male by default. It is as bad as saying “male nurse”, “female engineer”, “female pilot”. Adding gender to a title or profession sucks because it suggests that the default already has a gender specified. “Superstar & lady superstar”.

    malayalam cinema is far ahead of times. there is queer movies going back to 1970s, there was premarital sex being seen okay in 1980s. parental trauma, female leads too at 1980s. the direction was phenomenal and realistic since forever. im so glad ive grown up with them

    Definitely... Even Darshana and Anna Ben are actresses who could be added to this list. We must also give due credit to the Malayali audience who have always supported actresses with talent without looking at their beauty... Its really interesting that the importance given to acting in Malayalam movies is so much that I have yet to see a film in which Nayanthara looks as deglamourised as her look in "Manasinakkare" or "Raapakal". And let us not hate Annie for her comments on Nimisha... She also was a victim of the ideas that we all were brainwashed with and more so because she herself was an actress and part of the showbiz industry herself, its only natural that she thought she had the experience to tell Nimisha about these things.. But later towards the end she does acknowledge that Nimisha's approach is different from her own and encourages her to break stereotypes... That shows that she also learned something new from Nimisha. So let's be more considerate... peace out...

    Ganga in manichithrathazhu, unnimaya in aaram thampuran, Tessa k Abraham in 22FK, Jessi in kappela...are some amoung the many malayalam movies which we could recollect the names of the heroines...
    Whereas in Bollywood...I bet no one would be able to tell the role name of the female lead character from a single Hindi movie...But will be able to correlate item songs played by them though..

Credit where it's due - their ability to look beyond conventional physical appearances, or rather redefine them through their immense support, deserves recognition.
