Only actors are superstars, not actresses? Raveena Tondon opens up about the media’s gender bias. The actress claims that men enjoy ‘superstardom’ forever. And women are put on the list of ages and beauty. What should this judge? Raveena raised the question.
In a conversation with the media, the ‘Dilwale’ actress said, “I also asked the media, why should there be different criteria for judging actors and actresses? When Aamir Khan returned to work after a break of 2-3 years, it was not called a ‘comeback’. It will not be said, ’90s superstar Aamir is with us now’. In many reports, we see, ‘Madhuri Dixit, the popular actress of the 90s, is now doing all this….’
How is this view consistently supported? But there is no possibility of such talk about the age of Salman Khan or Sanjay Dutt!”
Pankaj Tripathi entered the discussion by stealing Raveena’s words. He claimed that in the era of OTT, it is not ‘stardom’ or success, but good screenplay that is important. It is not important how much business a picture did. If it’s a good story, after 30 seconds people forget all about it and focus on the movie. I think age-appearance does not have any different effect on OTT.” In her comment, Raveena said that it is not a good habit to be too modest when receiving praise!
