Chitrangda Singh: I would love to direct a film starring Kareena Kapoor , Kiara Advani and Alia Bhatt

As more women take on roles as producers and directors, the conversation around the female gaze in storytelling has grown louder. While this shift has opened up more authentic narratives, actor-producer Chitrangda Singh believes that compelling cinema goes beyond gender. "Women understand women's emotions really well. Having said that, I’m not stuck on that idea. For me, more than being a man or a woman, it has to be a good mind. Sometimes, a man’s perspective on a woman can be more interesting," says the actress, who produced Soorma starring Taapsee Pannu and Diljit Dosanjh.


‘I’d love to direct a film with Kareena, Kiara, Alia and me’
When asked whether she’d be keen to direct a female-led film featuring a strong ensemble cast, Chitrangda said, “Why not? I love Kareena Kapoor — she’s brilliant as an actor. I think Kiara Advani is lovely, and of course, Alia Bhatt. And maybe I’d like to be the fourth girl.”

Pitching a quirky storyline, she shared, “The story should be about us being con women, stuck in LA. We've run out of money and are trying to hustle our way back home. So, we decide to split up for five days, each of us responsible for making a certain amount of money. What happens to each of us in those five days — that’s the story. And the title? I think it should be Last Four Shots."
