Filmi Ladies episode 110: Smita Patil (superstars series 16)

We discuss the brief but magnificent film career of Smita Patil—one of India's greatest actresses. Winner of the Padma Shri and several film awards, she was the face of art cinema and feminist narratives. Intense and smoldering, she was often the hero of the film. We also discuss her foray into commercial cinema. See the pinned comment for recommended films. What are your favorite Smita movies or performances? Films discussed: Manthan, Bhumika, Jait re Jait, Namak Halaal, Bazaar, Umbartha, and Ghungroo.
