Anjali Menon

Anjali Menon talked extensively about how the industry’s norms are changing and how movies that celebrate toxic masculinity are performing well at the box office.

The renowned South Indian director Anjali Menon is attempting to figure out why people enjoy watching movies that glorify toxic masculinity. The director of movies like Bangalore Days and Ustad Hotel discussed the significance of an actor’s choice in selecting a movie that may be endorsing harmful ideas like toxic masculinity in a recent interview with India Today.

“As an audience member, I can react to such films,” Anjali stated, declining to mention any specific movie. Whether or if I watch it is up to me. I would argue that yes, movies certainly have an effect on the viewers! I had just published a column about the attraction of our matinee idols. Positive words from them will have a powerful effect. Our actors, who are so powerful, ought to be aware of the things the movie is celebrating, in my opinion. They ought to be allowed to portray bad personalities as well. If we use the media appropriately and are aware of it, it will work to our advantage. Our audiences are diverse and like a variety of content types.
