Filmmaker Dibakar Banerjee has revealed that in his next film, he intends to delve into the psyche of a woman. “My next has a woman protagonist. But I don't how the inner world of a woman is, how different it is from that of a man. But I can figure out the position of a woman in a society by roughly
mathematically mapping it to that of a dalit's in the society. That's a little more accurate description of what I am trying to do with my next film,” Dibakar said during a session at the Bridge Conclave here.
Talking about gender equality, the 47-year-old director said he does not objectify men and women and believes in treating the characters as they are.
“In my films, I am not objectifying a woman or any character and if the characters are not objectified then what are they doing?
“I think, men and women are fighting for power and if you take away power plays out of men and women, then 90 per cent of the relationship is gone.” The 'Byomkesh Bakshy!' helmer said gender division is ingrained in our society in the most 'silent and untold' ways.
