Wanted: More Women Heading The Machine

Women directors have yet to follow the trend their male counterparts are encashing—turning producer
WHEN it comes to taking risks, Team India captain Virat Kohli definitely has a match in his wife Anushka Sharma. The Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) actress had turned producer in 2015 with NH10 (2015), which was well received, and followed it up with Phillauri last year, another successful film. Her banner, Clean Slate Films, is set to release two more offbeat films this year—Kaneda, directed by Navdep Singh of NH10 fame and Pari.
Even though Anushka has been consistent in doing big-budget movies as an actress—PK (2014), Sultan (2016) and Jab Harry Met Sejal (2017), opposite the three super Khans—she has thought it wise to contribute her mite to parallel cinema with content-rich projects.
Priyanka Chopra, who has already gained a toehold in Hollywood with the successful television series Quantico, is the other actress to have turned producer. She set up her banner, Purple Pebbel Pictures in 2015, to promote regional cinema in Marathi, Punjabi, Bengali, Bhojpuri and even Sikkimese.

Fully-loaded Magazine
It was in 2012 when I walked into the Delhi Outlook Magazine office and realised that this was a place that was throbbing with a rare energy that newsrooms are known for and I knew I'd always keep that intact. To be on the other side of a media organisation is a difficult road to navigate and yet, it comes with a unique fulfilment that I have felt often as I have defended the editorial freedom and integrity as the CEO.

Diary
Over 30 years ago, when I joined the weekly Sunday as a reporter, everyone around me said it was a big mistake. 'The age of magazines is over' was the chorus. Sunday Magazine did close down for various reasons but the age of magazines was not over. Evidently, it still isn't as this special issue of '30 Years of Outlook' proves. There is something exciting, unpredictable and complete about a magazine. The thrill of sitting down with a new edition of a magazine, holding the cover to the light to examine its design, opening the first pages, to look at the contents to savour what's inside, then to flip the pages to give a look-see at the various stories and articles, stopping at some stunning photograph or an illustration, and then finally zeroing in on which article to start reading from is a unique experience.

To Men Who Write Women Off
“Women feel differently, so they talk differently, have a different relationship to words and to ideas of which these are the vehicle. Asserting difference at the same time as demanding equal rights is obviously the position to take. We must impose female cultural models, which have a universal value in a world where ‘universal’ equals ‘masculine’. In other words, cultivate marginality until the margin takes up half the page. We have a long way to go...”—Marina Yaguello, French linguist
