10 Feminist Movies About Strong Women Falling In Love With Themselves

by Shivangi
March 30, 2021

In the midst to be someone’s lover, someone’s wife, someone’s mother, we are raised to shower love on others. We are raised to be kind, loving, and caring. But, what no one teaches us is how to be our own lover! We are made to believe that our sole purpose lies in sacrificing and loving others! We are told to love others with so much depth that we forget to love our own self!

We are here to remind you that it is not only other’s love that matters but also our own! So, here are 10 Bollywood movies that made us think about why we need to be our first love!

1. Queen

Queen is a powerful movie that highlights a woman’s journey of discovering herself. Rani (Kangana Ranaut) is proof that “when things go wrong, cry not, gather your guts and fly away.” A soul-stirring movie in which an abandoned bride, instead of falling apart, chose to travel on her honeymoon alone and rediscover herself.

2. Thappad

This movie is a strong punch in the face of a society that promotes patriarchy. A movie that shows how our society treats women and perceives their dignity. Marrying a woman doesn’t mean that the man owns her. Thappad shows a woman standing for her dignity not just against her husband but her parents, friends, and entire society!

3. Shakuntala Devi

A movie that proves there’s a lot more to a woman than being just a mother. Becoming a mother is definitely special, but that doesn’t mean one has to compromise on her dreams and passion. Shakuntala Devi is one such movie that proves that it’s never too late to follow your ambition. This movie is just a reminder to fall in love with our dreams and passion! Fly high Woman!

This story reflects how there is no age to fall in love with yourself and achieve your goals.

5. Panga

Another movie that reminds us that motherhood doesn’t mean an end to women’s dreams and passion. Panga highlights the strength and determination of a woman, who wants to find her lost self. It focuses on a woman’s journey, who was an athlete but put her career on hold after becoming a mother. How she recaptures her glory again with the help of her family is the core of this beautiful movie!
