Kriti Sanon addresses the issue of sexism in Bollywood

Ever since its inception, Bollywood has suffered with a major flaw i.e, sexism. Mainstream films have always been hero centric and female actors were only used as mere plot devices in them. Although we have seen some woman centric films in last few years but Bollywood still has a long way to go in order to really fix things up.

Talking about this issue, actress Kriti Sanon recently shared that several current actors do not appreciate their female counterparts getting more screentime then them. According to a report in The Indian Express, Kriti said, "There are very, very few who would let others share screen space equally. I’ve been in situations where most men were not willing to do a film where 60% was me and 40% was a male actor’s role."

She further added, "Nobody was willing to do it. So, I obviously think that these things need to change a little. What Akshay did in Atrangi Re was so commendable. It was a small but good role. Akshay is so not insecure of anyone, and plays his part honestly."

On the work front, Kriti is currently awaiting the release of 'Bachchan Pandey' while she has films like 'Adipurush', 'Bhediya', 'Ganpath' and few more in production.
