Audiences want to see women in more important roles: Madhuri Dixit

Noted actress Madhuri Dixit talked about female centric films in today's era and how women are getting a variety of roles.

She believes that today, women in films are not just taking revenge, or playing victims. They are everyday people, and are not being seen through glasses of who is a male or who is a female.  "[Filmmakers] are portraying what women today actually do — go to work, be housewives, taking up different professions, shining in sports and so on. And it's wonderful because then you get a variety of roles to portray, and women have so much more to do onscreen," she said in an interview.

"Even audiences have matured and they want to see women in more important roles, and not just someone who is going to dance or say a few dialogues. They want more from the women onscreen which is wonderful for everyone."

Madhuri's debut web series, "The Fame Game" releases on Netflix on February 25.
