Rima Kallingal, actor and WCC member, talks about the immense success of the female-centric superhero film 'Lokah Chapter 1: Chandra'. Rima says that such films exist in a space that people who have spoken up for the rights of women in cinema have created. Rima Kallingal says that the cinema-viewing audience in Kerala value good films, regardless of gender. She says that the real bias against women lies within the cinema industry and that female-led films are often given a meagre budget. #rimaka

Rima Kallingal, actor and WCC member, says that after she did the role of Tessa in the movie '22 Female Kottayam' (22FK), men started hating her, and she got branded as a feminist. Rima says that feminism was a relatively new concept at that time in Kerala, and it helped to create a dialogue around it. She says 'feminist' is a very good brand. #rimakallingal #interview #cinema #expressdialogues | TNIE Kerala
