Congress leader and former superstar actress Vijayashanti has said that female actors getting paid handsomely shouldn't be seen as abnormal. Speaking to a national daily, the outspoken 'Lady Superstar' of the 1990s opines that there was a time when people would gossip about her status of being the "highest-paid actress".

"When an actor charges high fees, nobody says anything. But when an actress does the same, it becomes news," Vijayashanti, known for her versatility in her heyday, says.

The talented lady is making a comeback with 'Sarileru Neekevvaru', in which she plays a Law professor. She is fond of having teamed up with Mahesh Babu. Vijayashanti also clarifies that she is not part of 'RRR', unlike what the grapevine has it.
