Hindi cinema has truly come a long way in the last many decades, especially when it comes to the portrayal of a father-daughter relationship. It's impossible to count the number of films where the father was the staunch opposition in his daughter's impassioned romance with the hero, and how his death or repentance was possibly the only way to resolve the story.

There have been some surprising revelations that showed how the dynamics of this tender relationship can be explored more widely, and why it's unfair to reduce the drama between their bond to their characters' conflict. It may have worked for and in certain films, backfired in many. Homi Adajania is now coming up with Angrezi Medium, with Irrfan Khan and Radhika Madan in the lead.
