Meera Chopra to star in Super Woman, a film on asexuality

On Super Woman, Meera Chopra said, "I was so intrigued by the script. The term 'asexual' is alien to Indians. So many women and men struggle to make their peers understand how they feel about it. While researching for the film, I came across jaw-dropping statistics on the number of suicides and forced marriages of asexual women. It is alarming! With "Super Women," we aim to bring a ray of hope to people who are struggling to convey their real feelings to society."

Sharing his thoughts, Piiyush Singh, Chief Operating Officer, Golden Ratio Films said, "As a production company, GRF has a reputation for producing films that the general public can identify with. Super Woman is a special cinema that sheds light on a theme that will resonate widely with discerning audiences."

On her recent film Safed's outing at the Cannes Film Festival, Meera stated, "It was a surreal and overwhelming experience for us. We were wearing the badge to represent our country and represent the revolution in Indian cinema. 'Safed' is a heart-warming film that shows the true essence of the struggles faced by widows and transgenders in society. A.R Rahman unveiled the first look of our film, making it even more special. "

Meera added, "Super Woman is an ode to all the superwomen out there who are defying societal norms. The world out there needs to know that a woman cannot be defined by her sexuality. ‘Sexual' or 'asexual,' every woman has the ability to conquer the world. We are not the 'weaker' sex anymore. A woman's greatest strength doesn't lie in her sexuality, it lies in her character, her spirit, and her personality. A woman’s worth is beyond her sexuality and our film states this beautifully. While researching I was appalled to see documentaries that belittled women merely as sex objects."

Super Woman has been directed by Zaigham Imam, who is globally known in the film festival circuit for his remarkable body of work and features stalwarts like Tigmanshu Dhulia and Poonam Dhillon. The film has been produced by Golden Ratio films.

Asha Bhosle’s family praying for her son Anand’s recovery who is admitted in ICU at a Dubai hospital

Singer Asha Bhosle has been singularly unfortunate regarding her children. She lost her daughter Varsha in 2012 under very tragic circumstances. Varsha was a talented journalist but troubled by her distinguished ancestry. She allegedly shot herself in the living room of her own home on Peddar Road in Mumbai. Thereafter, Ashaji left her home and moved in with her son.  In 2015, she lost her elder son Hemant, a promising music director, to cancer. Asha Bhosle was performing in Singapore at a live concert when her daughter Varsha took her own life. She was again in Singapore for a concert when her son Hemant died. The bereaved mother was not told about her son’s death until two days after it happened. She was somewhere prepared for the death, as Hemant was terminally ill and doctors had given up on him. But nothing prepares one for a child’s loss. Now, her only surviving child, son Anand has taken ill in Dubai and has been hospitalized. A member of the family informs on condition o...
