Every time a new movie releases we flock to the multiplexes to watch our favourite actors on screen. Movies are a great source of entertainment and not just entertainment, they have the ability to change our attitudes, highlight certain issues, form opinions and even ignite something deep within.
This is a list of some of the brilliant movies made in Bollywood that every woman should watch.
1. Lipstick Under My Burkha
This is a movie about
four women living in a conservative and patriarchal system trying to live life on their own terms. The movie had to go through a long battle with the censor board to get a release date. These women break societal norms that require them to behave in a certain way to fulfil a certain role. Every woman will be able to relate to it.

This is probably the only movie in Bollywood that
focuses on female friendships. Although it wasn’t a big hit at the box offices, you would definitely relate to it. After all only we know how important our girlfriends are to us. If you are super attached to your girlfriends then this should be the next movie you watch at your next sleepover.
7. Jab We Met

This is a typical “bubbly girl meets quiet boy and they fall in love” movie. It’s light-hearted, sweet and the character of Geet is adorable. She speaks her mind, does what her heart says, and she truly
teaches you that loving yourself is very important.
