ODE To The Earthy Women In Cinema
The real Indian woman on the silver screen was a Smita Patil as Sonbai or a Bindoo, a Shabana Azmi as Laxmi or Shushila and a Deepti Naval as Neha or Geeta. These were actors who dished out stellar performances in their films, which made waves in the times when they were released for giving rise to a movement in films termed as social realism. Hard-hitting and profound, the artistic renderings of these chiseled actors of yesteryears are gems of the Indian cinema. We celebrate these actors and their films which can well be termed as classics in our cinematic history.

It is not merely that Shipra’s voice is unmistakable, from the first notes she strikes on any number; it’s more that it’s impossible to imagine music without the impact of that voice – its rich warmth and empathy, the glorious vivacity of her mezzo-soprano vocal range, and its no messing power.
