Shriya Saran on how Alia Bhatt, Kareena Kapoor Khan, and Kajol changed women’s narrative in industry
During the Showtime trailer launch event, Shriya Saran discussed women’s narratives in the film industry. She shared, “Narrative change after making a comeback. When an actress doesn’t do a film for few years, even for few months, they say it’s a comeback. Don’t know why it’s like that. But things have changed. Kajol, Kareena Kapoor, Alia (Bhatt).. they have changed the way things are seen.”
She further added that if one is passionate, then she or he comes back to doing what he or she loves to do the most. “When I was making a comeback (laughs), I was nervous. All directors were supportive and welcoming and extremely nice about it. They ask how is Radha (her daughter). How is life.. before talking about work. There is no discrimination. There used to be but now there is no discrimination. It’s much better. It has changed,” Shriya shared.
