Adah Sharma on gender discrimination in Bollywood: Female actors are called before male actors on set

‘I find it very strange that they first call the girl on the set and then they say, ‘ok, wait.’ When they see, ‘ok. she is here’, then they call the actor’s manager and tell him to come on the set and the girl is already there,’ Adah Sharma said.

Adah Sharma on gender discrimination in Bollywood: Female actors are called before male actors on set

Adah Sharma, who is currently enjoying the success of her controversial film ‘The Kerala Story’, shared that gender discrimination is widely prevalent in the Hindi film industry.

In a recent interview with Siddharth Kannan, Adah said, ‘I have worked with people from north and south, who were very amazing and not amazing also. I have realised it is the person. If your director is nice, irrespective of the language, everything goes very well. But if your director is not very pleasant, and not very nice, it’s just not a nice thing’

The actor added, ‘I have met the good, bad and ugly in all the places.’

‘I find it very strange that they first call the girl on the set and then they say, ‘ok, wait.’ When they see, ‘ok. she is here’, then they call the actor’s manager and tell him to come on the set and the girl is already there. I feel discrimination on the basis of gender, I don’t enjoy working in an environment like that,’ Adah said.

Adah Sharma recently met Union Minister Nitin Gadkari along with ‘The Kerala Story’ producer Vipul Shah and the rest of the team.

The Sudipto Sen directorial faced backlash from many politicians, actors, and audiences and they called it to be a work of propaganda. Despite the controversy, the film did well at the box office, earning over Rs 200 crore
