Anushka-Ananya on unfair treatment of actresses in B'wood

Ananya Panday and Anushka Sharma once opened up about

gender disparity

in Bollywood. The conversation had sparked discussions about the urgent need for equality in the entertainment industry.
In conversation with Film Companion, Ananya questioned why male actors receive better cars and larger rooms on set compared to their female counterparts. Anushka shared how she had raised the same issue eight years ago, yet nothing has changed. She highlighted that even senior female actors are not given the same respect as senior male actors.

During outdoor shoots, Anushka noticed that male actors are still given better hotel rooms, even when hotels have multiple high-quality options. She questioned the unequal treatment. Ananya added that growing up in a household that emphasized gender equality made these industry biases even more shocking to her.

Meanwhile, on the work front, Anushka is currently away from the silver screen. She was last seen in Shah Rukh Khan starrer '

Zero

' also co-starring Katrina Kaif. She will next be seen in '

Chakda Xpress

'.
Ananya Panday, on the other hand, has projects like 'Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri' and '

Chand Mera Dil

' in her kitty.
