Hindi/Indian Movies With Female Leads

95 movies  

Hindi cinema is obviously male dominated, like even more than in other major film nations I think. But from time to time there are these pearls with female leads or at least with equal parts to the male protagonists, I will add those too. Unfortunately I don't know many south movies, I will add them tho after I've watched any or get recommens.

List is by far not finished yet..
