00:00There is a question like you have been advocated consistently in film industry looking after
00:07women empowerment, so what are, like how, the society nowadays is dominating men, so
00:14how can empowerment be changed?
00:18I think you should not be concerned about who are dominating men and what they are doing.
00:24I think if you are not comfortable in someone's company, if somebody makes you feel uncomfortable,
00:30you should simply stay away from those people and be very alarmed and take care of yourself
00:35and you should work on yourself and your life and basically focus on, because there are
00:42so many people in the world, you know, and everybody is free to do their things.
00:46Even people are, you know, people just do their thing and if they are, whatever they
00:51are doing, there is system, there is law in order to see that they are taken care of.
00:56You cannot help it in any way.
00:59So you can only help your life.
01:01So I suggest that you please focus on your life and be empowered, whether you want to
01:05study or you want to make career in any other profession, you just, you should empower yourself.
01:11All right.
01:12Okay, one more question.
01:13Yeah, please.
01:14Hello, ma'am.
01:15I am your biggest fan.
01:16Ma'am, you have struggled a lot in your life, whether it is film industry or politics,
01:21you have sung flags everywhere.
01:23In emergency movie, you have done both direct, produced and acting.
01:27So ma'am, my question was that in Indian history, a powerful woman's role, in today's
01:32decade, a powerful woman who is known as you, what challenges did you face while playing
01:37her role?
01:38Indira ji's role?
01:40Yes, ma'am.
01:41There were a lot of challenges.
01:43There was a huge age difference.
01:45She is in her sixties and I am in my thirties.
01:49So I had to lose that kind of muscle mass.
01:52Before that, I had done a film, Dhakar, in which I did action.
01:56So my frame was such that it did not look convincing.
02:02So I think it was physically challenging.
02:05Okay, ma'am.
02:06Any message?
02:07Okay.
02:08Can we have one more question?
02:09If we have questions for the music team, we can take and otherwise we will close.
02:12Okay.
02:13Hi.
02:14Firstly, good afternoon.
02:15You guys look fantastic.
02:16Now, I would like to ask the composers actually because as someone who started his music career
02:21recently, is there any way to launch his music career without getting into Bollywood?
02:26Since I am not interested in the Bollywood industry, but just making music itself.
02:30Is there a possibility to just get breakthrough into the industry without going to the Bollywood
02:37side of things?
02:40Well, definitely.
02:42In today's day and age, I think it's necessary or absolutely, you know, compulsory to start
02:50your career with films.
02:52There are many artists who come from outside and then eventually there are directors and
02:56producers who approach them.
02:58Even historically, there were people from indie pop and outside film music who later
03:03were approached by filmmakers to contribute to a film.
03:07So, it's definitely possible, especially in today's social media age.
03:10Don't you think, Devi?
03:12Alright.
03:14Alright, guys.
03:15Thank you so much, ma'am.
03:16Thank you so much, sir.
