7 Upcoming Female Centric Films That Will Hit The Theatres in 2018!
Updated : January 08, 2018 10:56 PM ISTWomen-centric movies had been a highlight in 2017. There have been as many as 20 female-centric films in 2017. Compared to that 2018 seems to be a little slower. As of now, 5 such films will release in 2018. But all of them look absolutely enthralling as they either promise an interesting watch or will mark a comeback for our favourite heroines on screen. Let us have a look at the upcoming female-centric films of 2018:
1. Hichki
This film will deal with the ordeal of a teacher who has Tourette's syndrome. The difficult term has been broadly called 'hichki'. The film is the remake of the Hollywood film, First Of The Class. What makes it even more interesting is the fact that it will mark the comeback of Rani Mukherji post her maternity. The trailer is already out and has garnered a lot of positive feedback. It will hit the theatres on 23rd February 2018.
2. Pari
While the storyline of the film has not been revealed yet, the posters of the film have made all of us excited. The haunting look that Anushka Sharma dons is interesting. The film will also have Parambrata Chatterjee of Kahaani fame. This film will also release in February.
3. Padmavati
The film was scheduled for a December 2017 release, but thanks to mass protests, the film had been deferred. The film has finally gone for certification, but will probably release somewhere around April.

4. Raazi
