Directorial Style
In most of his films, Bhandarkar's protagonist is female. (Tabu in Chandni Bar, Raveena Tandon in Satta, Konkona Sen Sharma in Page 3, Bipasha Basu in Corporate, Priyanka Chopra in Fashion and Kareena Kapoor in Heroine.) He has also depicted gay characters in his movies like Page 3, Traffic signal and Fashion.
In an interview with Sanjay Ram of Businessofcinema.com he says "My movies are not exposes, maybe they just hold up a mirror to society. My movies are not judgmental; I just show what happens in our society, sometimes there could be a solution and sometimes there may be none. Life goes on." He is often critisized for making his charecters look stereotypical and also for recycling the same idea in his films. This can be seen in his movies like "page 3", "fashion" and "heroine".
