Katrina Kaif is OG of spyverse; Deepika Padukone, Vaani Kapoor, Kiara Advani are heroines for no reason?

War 2 teaser released a day ago failed to trigger the hype expected from such a huge franchise. While fans were eager to see Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR fight out on the big screen, they were also eager to see the pair of Hrithik and Kiara Advani and their chemistry.

War 2 teaser released a day ago failed to trigger the hype expected from such a huge franchise. While fans were eager to see Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR fight out on the big screen, they were also eager to see the pair of Hrithik and Kiara Advani and their chemistry. Not surprisingly, the teaser reveals that the actress has a secondary role in War 2 with the two male stars taking away all the glory.

Nonetheless, the bikini look of Kiara Advani received a lot of attention and became a hot topic of discussion as many felt that the teaser should have dropped more scenes related to her that showcased her acting instead of just projecting her as a hot and sexy girl.

Katrina Kaif’s Zoya in YRF’s Spyverse is the only strong female character

Be it Deepika Padukone in Pathaan, Vaani Kapoor in War, or now Kiara Advani in War 2, most of the time these actresses have been made to look beautiful, and sexy, grooving to a sensuous song and doing some hot numbers with the male lead. Vaani did not have any substantial role that was at par with the male lead.

However, Katrina Kaif as Zoya, a Pakistani secret service agent was one of the most important part of the Tiger franchise. Undoubtedly it was Salman Khan’s stardom and swag that made the franchise such a big hit, but the story of all the three movies including Ek Tha Tiger, Tiger Zinda Hai or Tiger 3 is not possible without Katrina Kaif’s Zoya.

She had good songs, dialogues, presence, and even action sequences, and hence her character has been an integral part of the Tiger franchise. Both Deepika and Katrina played ISI agents in the Pathaan and Tiger franchises respectively. But Katrina’s role as an agent, lover, and then mother is more evolved and has different dimensions. On the other hand, Deepika Padukone despite being a secret cover agent Rubina Mohsin, Pathaan was all the time more focussed on Shah Rukh Khan and his character.

And it seems Kiara Advani's role will also be short and a cameo type similar to Vaani Kapoor in War and may not have much scope.

This is why bollywood is dying female characters are just showpieces now they might get a line or 2 in films otherwise they are being used just for bikini scenes or songs , What are your views?
