Abstract
Looking at the roots of film history in India, it surfaces that the first feature film was made in the
year 1912-13. Dadasaheb Phalke is acknowledged as the father of Indian cinema. He released in
1913, a historical themed movie - Raja Harischandra. Those were the days when women avoided
participation in films. So, male artists had to play the female roles as well. Then a change
occurred in1930 and women form rich families joined the movie industry and changed its face.
Devika Rani, Zubeidaa, Mehtab, Shobhana Samarth were the popular heroines of this time.
Media also discharged a key role leading to modernization of societies by changing the face of
women. Over past decades, Indian cinema has witnessed a significant change in the way women
are depicted through films. Modern films represent women as more independent, confident and
career oriented. This article deals with the fast changing role of women represented in Indian
cinema.
