Later Aamir went to Pratibha and expressed that she has a ‘different face’, due to which they can put her in any role and mould her easily into it. Pratibha recalled that it was a very big compliment for her. She also spoke about how she was about to relate to the character Jaya she played.
Meanwhile, ETimes rated ‘Laapataa Ladies’ 4 out of 5 and our review reads, A girl is never smart, she is over smart. A woman is not clever, she is cunning. Laapataa Ladies tramples these age-old narratives by stating loud and clear, “A ‘respectable’ girl is the biggest fraud in society’, as it conditions her to not question the status quo. The story doesn’t allow women to play the victim card either. It sternly says, “It’s not shameful to be a fool but being proud of one’s ignorance is a shame. A delectable blend of heart, mind, and humour, this one’s an absolute winner.”
