Actor Neha Sharma, in a recent interview, opened up about being photographed from inappropriate angles by paparazzi. While paparazzi are a part of the entertainment industry, many female actors have recently criticised them for crossing the decency line. This has sparked uproar, even among fans, who feel that paparazzi have gone too far.
Neha Sharma admitted that she is sometimes affected by this invasion of privacy, but she also recognizes that it's part of the industry. She mentioned that this loss of freedom is a concern for women.
‘There are days when you don't want to get seen and so you take a break, like I did recently. These are things you have to do to stay relevant. Dikhna zaroori hai aaj ke time pe (It's important to be seen in today's time). As for the angles, it does get distasteful. As a woman, you also lose your freedom to dress the way you want to. When you are in the public eye, you do have to be careful as sometimes things go out of line,’ the actor shared.
Neha added that it's part of the business. ‘There's another side when you talk to them (the camerapersons). Their livelihood depends on this as they are paid for doing it. They are running their family by taking these videos. They also have a hard time standing in the sun the whole day waiting for one photo. There are always two ways to look at things. So, when you introspect, you realise you are also supporting a family, and that's really beautiful,’ she said.
Neha Sharma stars in ‘Illegal 3,’ where she plays Niharika Singh, a new lawyer in a prestigious Delhi law firm. As she strives to excel in her career, Niharika uncovers unexpected truths.
