5. Bandidas

It’s all right to have two male actors Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman bringing out their machismo and male charm, but it is the two female leads played by Salma Hayek and Penelope Cruz in the role of Mexican bandits that steal the show. Remember our home-grown Bandit Queen…

7. Fire

Deepa Mehta surely knows her mind when it comes to conveying social taboos. Fire featuring Shabana Azmi and Nandita Das tackles lesbian relationships wonderfully. It’s a tale of two women who one day they realise there is so much more to life than keeping their husbands as well as society happy.

Though Fire came under huge backlash by certain section of audience for showing something that was against Bharatiya Sanskriti, it was the British Film Institute that included Fire in a list of top 10 feminist films ever. Goes to show how ladies have come a long way.
