Alankrita Shrivastava says only male heroes and their films are promoted in Bollywood

Filmmaker Alankrita Shrivastava, whose web series Bombay Begums will soon be streamed, says that making women-oriented films is not easy in Bollywood. Right from shooting to distribution, it is tough to get the appropriate budgets and provisions. "Budget problems are not specific to me and my films. It is the same story for all female filmmakers. If you want to make films with women who are not big stars, it is a problem. Even with big stars -- Meghna (Gulzar) made Raazi (with Alia Bhatt) -- she had to shoot within limited budget and had to shoot for long hours," Alankrita tells IANS.
