KanganaRanaut is back in limelight and this time she has hit the most sensitive chord
of Bollywood, Pay disparity. The actress, who has proved her mettle in acting,
came forward to discuss the issue of pay disparity in Bollywood before the
release of her upcoming film, Simran.
This
is not the very first time when Kangana
has made the headlines. She has been a hot topic for quite some time, No matter
it is the Hrithik controversy or her film Simran’s story writing issues, the
Queen fame actress has never hesitated to put her point out in the open.
Recently
in a famous television show, Kanaga made a lot of revelations about her
relationship with Hrithik. And once again she is back with a bang slamming the
pay disparity in Bollywood. In fact, trolls have claimed her publicity hungry
lady. Talking to leading newspaper daily Kangana said, why are we so wary of discussions and debate? I am told it’s
bad PR, but I don’t quite understand that term.”
The Tanu Weds Manu
actress has been a victim of pay disparity and thus has many things to say.
“There are women in
the industry who say that if actresses are unable to bring in crowds (in a
theatre) that a male star can, how can they demand equal pay. If we, as
actresses, keep instilling this
inferiority complex in girls, there is no hope for better
times. Personally, my logic for remuneration has always been that I have
365 days to work, as much as any male star. An actor’s pay must be determined
by the amount of work s/he does. Your gender is no yardstick for it. The
industry isn’t just made up of four actors who have lasted through the decades.
I might not have 30 years behind me. But in my 10 years, I’ve achieved
significant milestones to demand a certain fee. Anybody’s film can fail and
this year has shown us enough proof of that. So, let’s stop giving the opening
(weekend) and closing logic.” She added.
