Скачать или смотреть Did Raanjhanaa Really Glorify Stalking? Swara Bhasker Responds! Ep143

In this episode of The Male Feminist, we have the ultimate baddie herself, Swara Bhasker. She opens up about safety in Mumbai vs. Delhi, shares her childhood rebel streak, and recalls a disturbing eve-teasing incident in Delhi. She also talks about her experiences on Mumbai locals, and the infamous Raanjhanaa trailer launch where a journalist questioned if the film glorified stalking. Swara sheds light on the unrealistic beauty standards in Bollywood, the times directors told her this wasn’t her “space,” and her journey into the reality show space. She speaks candidly about motherhood, navigating an inter-caste marriage and the judgments that came with it, her strong political voice, and why she believes that simply being a woman is a political act!
