“Nice to see leading ladies of film industry breaking sexist norms:” Kangana Ranaut on Katrina-Vicky wedding

Ahead of Katrina Kaif and Vicky Kaushal’s wedding on December 9, celebrated actress Kangana Ranaut on Wednesday said it is good that the leading ladies of Bollywood are breaking sexist norms of society.

Kaif, whose filmography boasts of several blockbusters such as Namastey London (2007), Singh Is Kingg (2008), Raajneeti (2010), Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara (2011), and Bharat (2019), is tying the knot with Kaushal after dating for more than a year.


On Tuesday, Kaif, 38, and 33-year-old Kaushal’s pre-wedding festivities started at Six Senses Fort Barwara, Sawai Madhopur, Rajasthan. Several prominent film personalities have already reached the wedding venue.

Though she did not directly name Kaif or Kaushal, Ranaut said the wedding redefines gender stereotypes.  “Growing up we heard so many stories of successful rich men marrying much younger women... For women to be more successful than their husband was seen as a major crisis, forget marrying a younger man, after a certain age, marriage was impossible for women (sic)... Nice to see rich, successful women, leading ladies of the Indian Film Industry breaking the sexist norms... Kudos to men and women both for redefining gender stereotypes,” Ranaut wrote on her Instagram Stories.

Both Kaif and Kaushal left for Jaipur from Mumbai on Monday evening with their families and from there, headed to Six Senses Fort Barwara, Sawai Madhopur, in a convoy of more than 15 cars. The luxurious property, a Fort converted into a hotel, has been lit up in bright yellow lights for the wedding celebrations and is guarded by private security personnel and bouncers.

On the work front, Kangana Ranaut has a number of high-profile films at various stages of development, including The Incarnation – Sita, Dhaakad, Tejas, Emergency, and Manikarnika Returns: The Legend of Didda.

Riz Ahmed has entered Hamlet in a way British cinema has not quite seen. The new Hamlet trailer has been released by Universal, giving the first proper look at Aneil Karia’s modern take on Shakespeare and placing the story inside a British South Asian business empire. It is due in cinemas on 6 February, and the footage shows a tense, controlled Ahmed moving through grief, suspicion and family power.

The film teams Ahmed and Karia again after The Long Goodbye, which won the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short. That success informs this production. This is the first time a major UK studio release has grounded Hamlet within a South Asian household for a wide audience.
