They were convincing, powerful and commanded our attention as they shined on screen. Here’s looking back at them:
Kangana Ranaut

Kangana Ranaut, in one of her most versatile performances till date, decided to go on her honeymoon alone. This journey of self-discovery shattered several stereotypes of how a woman should deal with ‘rejection’Kareena Kapoor Khan
With her film Chameli, where Kareena gave a very convincing performance, the actress broke stereotypes about actresses as well as sex workers. Meanwhile in Ki and Ka, co-starring Arjun Kapoor, Bebo won hearts as a working woman who unabashedly focused on her career while her husband took care of their homeBhumi Pednekar
Weight doesn’t have anything to do with love. However, that’s not what most Bollywood films taught us in the past.

She proved that being overweight doesn’t stand in the way of finding love as well as a happily ever afterTaapsee Pannu
In Pink, Taapsee broke stereotypes about what ‘decent girls’ should be like when she spelled out the difference between rape and consensual intercourse in court, taking a stand for herself.
