'Mindy and I are two of the very few Indian women working in comedy and television right now so it's rare that someone else can write an experience that's so close to yours.' —NishaGanatra
I remember a scene in the film where Emma Thompson says something about never wanting to hear the phrase “as a female [xyz]” ever again. On the one hand, I get that frustration but on the other hand, there are so few women at the top in any industry that you’ve got to sort of make a noise about it. Where do you land on that, as a “female director”?
You know it’s interesting, Emma Thompson’s character says that but I think there’s a bit of a generational divide. For me, I’m so thankful and interested in that generation of women who really broke the ground for us to be able to come in and do this work. I think in the case of Emma’s character she sacrificed a lot, including her identity, in order to fit in to this boys’ club and I think she did so somewhat unconsciously.
From what I’ve read, there were a lot of women involved with this film, across various departments. What was it like working with a group of women on this, and how often has that happened before in your experience?] it was a conscious effort because there was such poor representation of women behind the camera. If women aren’t in charge of telling their stories, a lot of those stories aren’t going to get told.
