Ratna Pathak Shah says it is weird that women are considered a minority in India. “That’s one of my greatest fears about what’s happening in our country today, how it is going to affect minorities – the women. Women are not even minorities, considering we are 50 per cent of the population, but in everyone’s head we are. ”
“Anything beyond the majoritarian idea is not acceptable today. That’s a very dangerous state to be in and that must be fought.”

Shah also feels that the polarities between people are widening in India. “It will be a tough fight. We are in for really hard times in our country. The polarities are becoming wider, there seems to be no desire to bring people together in the country. Unfortunately, I see this replicated in many parts of the world,” she said.
