Actresses Are Forced For Pay Cuts But Not Heroes

Actresses Are Forced For Pay Cuts But Not Heroes

We all talk about girl power and gender equality in social justice, but the women in India are still facing discrimination from top to bottom in this nation. 

Though the hard work and time to be invested in equal when compared to the male folks, the payment they get in various private sectors is not the same.

Cinema is one such industry that shows immense discrimination towards actresses.

Actress Bhumi Pednekar in an interview spoke about the issue of pay disparity in the film industry.

"I've never heard of any producer going and telling a male co-star of mine, 'Please take a pay cut, keeping the COVID-19 situation in mind'," she said.

"It doesn't happen. But it's expected from...us (women), which I feel is ridiculous," she added.

This proves how male centric the film industry is even in 2022.
