The crew has landed
THE WEEK India
|April 21, 2024
At the time of writing this, an all-women-led film—Crew—has clocked in₹104 crore at the worldwide box office.
It is only the fifth film this year to have reached the prestigious ₹100 crore club. It is also one of the very few films frontlining women to have reached this milestone. In fact, you can count these films on one hand.
Crew, starring Tabu, Kareena Kapoor Khan and Kriti Sanon, is 10 days old and still counting its collections. The Rhea Kapoor-Anil Kapoor and Ekta Kapoor-Shobha Kapoor production has scored a double whammy, their previous all-girl romp Veere Di Wedding (2018) made ₹138 crore at the worldwide box office. Sonam Kapoor’s Neerja (2016) made ₹131 crore, while Alia Bhatt’s Gangubai Kathiawadi (2022) made 1209 crore. Kangana Ranaut’s iconic 2013 film, Queen, also a blockbuster, fell short at just ₹95 crore.
It is a sorry state of affairs that such few female-led films have brought in the numbers. It is also discouraging to know that fewer films with women protagonists will thus be made.

Why Delhi can't be Indraprastha
The recent proposal by a Delhi BJP MP to officially rename the capital city from Delhi to 'Indraprastha'—invoking the legendary city of the Pandavas from the Mahabharat—is more than a superficial suggestion. It is a politically motivated attempt to rewrite the complex, multilayered history of one of the world’s oldest continuously inhabited metropolises.

Freedom on independence day
Volodymyr Mykolayenko, mayor of the city of Kherson in south Ukraine from February 2014 till December 2020, was aware of the perils of Russian attacks, because he witnessed the occupation of Crimea in 2014. But he never believed that Russians would attack the south of Ukraine and that too his city, Kherson. Here are excerpts from what he told Mridula Ghosh after he was freed from Russian captivity.
