Anushka Sharma Candidly, Thoroughly, PERFECTLY Called Out Bollywood's Sexism
SLAM. DUNK.
To mark Anushka Sharma completing 7 years in Bollywood, Anupama Chopra just released a half-hour interview with the actress in which they discuss everything from drinking, to producing, to Virat Kohli.
When asked about Bollywood's treatment of women, Sharma opened up with more candour than Bollywood celebrities usually do. And she nailed it.
Film Companion
On the roles women are offered in Bollywood:
Film Companion
On Bollywood's gender-specific ageism:
"There's a sexual connotation attached to this," she continued.

On Bollywood writing insubstantial female characters:
"Although this year has been really, really good for women," she continued, "A lot of films that've done well have actually been films with female protagonists."

Anushka Sharma Explained How She And Virat Kohli Make It Work Despite Leading Crazy Lives
“If Virat wants me to come to watch him, and I want to watch him, why the hell am I gonna listen to anybody else?”
Anupama Chopra recently conducted a no-holds-barred interview of Anushka Sharma and, among other things, discussed her relationship with Virat Kohli.
When asked about how they keep a sense of normalcy in the relationship, she explained:
"He's, like, emotionally that way. I'm more chilled out. But other than that we both want the same things in life. We both don't want to become pawns. If I lead my life according to someone else, I've screwed my life up," she continued.
When asked about how she deals with being blamed for Kohli's failures, she had this to say:
"I tell myself that if I start to listen to these people and start to let them decide how I should behave and what i should do, then this is not my life, it's theirs. I'm not gonna give anybody the power to control my life," she added.
And when reminded that the cameras are always on them, she had the perfect sign off.

Virat Kohli Has Spoken Up Against Sexism And Gender-Based Violence
Nailed it.
Chris Hyde / Getty Images
In an interview with The Hindu last week, Indian test captain Virat Kohli opened up about the way women are treated in India. He said he's especially perturbed by rapes and attacks on senior citizens.
"It has obviously been a major concern for a long time, especially rapes, molestations and eve-teasing. It is very disrespectful to look at women in that way... It comes from the kind of society that we have built over the years where women have always been known to be treated as inferiors. How can this be done? This mentality is disturbing and needs to be condemned."

Baba Ramdev's India Today cover.
Why it's iconic: This is the only meme made from the cover of a magazine on this list (which is pretty surprising). Ramdev is clearly one of the internet's running jokes, and this time, the format was superb.
Bonus: Ramdev just being Ramdev.
Virat Kohli's attempt to stand up for Anushka Sharma.
Why it's iconic: The fact that the Indian internet is so savage, that they took a dude trying to stand up for his girlfriend and turned it into one of the year's biggest memes.
Bonus: Props to people for picking things that literally EVERYONE hates. Looking at you, Pepsi.
