Nayanthara empowers women
Nayanthara remains a strong influence in cinema, both on and off the screen, inspiring women to break societal barriers and embrace their strength. From her debut in Bollywood alongside Shah Rukh Khan to her 75th film "Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food," she consistently selects roles that empower women and challenge stereotypes.
Nayanthara on portraying 'empowered women' in films
Nayanthara highlighted the significance of depicting strong women characters in her movies during a recent interview with GQ magazine, "Portraying empowered women who choose to defy social stigmas is not just a creative choice, but also a personal commitment to amplifying voices that are often overlooked or silenced," she said.
In recent times, Nayanthara has shifted her focus from mainstream films to supporting and acting in movies with social themes. In 2017, she portrayed a district collector in "Aramm," followed by a crime comedy "Kolamaavu Kokila" in 2018, and a police officer in "Imaikkaa Nodigal" the same year. Her latest film, "Annapoorani: The Goddess of Food," featured her as an aspiring chef. Her upcoming projects, "Test" and "Mannangatti Since 1960," will continue to reflect her dedication to socially relevant stories.
