What’s making these goddesses angry?

After winning accolades on the global scene, the cast of any film is expected to be happy, thrilled and filled with joy, but that's not the case with the cast of the film Angry Indian Goddesses.

After their euphoric reception at the Toronto Film Festival, the girls from Angry Indian Goddesses would normally have every reason to smile, but it seems that is not the case with these girls. In keeping in tune with their film's title, they are instead raging. Sandhya Mridul, one of the seven leading ladies of the film, said: "All of us are raging and not just us seven women in the film, a lot of women probably in your office and all over the country have things to say and are saying them about what all has been happening around." "Like we were sitting inside and we were talking about that man being beaten to death over the beef in his house or maybe it was not even beef and it is making us really angry," she added.

The cast of the film also includes Sarah-Jane Dias, Amrit Maghera, singer Anushka Manchanda and Tannishtha Chatterjee. And though the Pan Nalin-directed film has been touted as India's first female buddy movie, Tannishtha made it clear that they're not just focusing on feminism. "It is not only about women's issues. We are angry Indian goddesses as individuals and citizens of this society and we voice our opinions about various different things and one has to accept women as humans and not say that. We are only goddesses-mothers and sisters," she said.

For all the women who are tired of being upheld to a patriarchal society's idea of perfection and would like to speak out their mind. Tannishtha says, “"It's that tag, that you have to be perfect - the Indian woman. I have heard this from so many of my men. My mother has been like this. My sister has been like this. My acquaintances are like that. There is so much of pressure on me, like, 'Oh my god, Can I just be me?'," she said.

Angry Indian Goddesses is set to release in November in India
