Earlier than this Vidya Balan has also spoken about why it’s difficult for her to get male superstars to feature in her films, and now Taapsee Pannu has opened up about the same.
In an interview with Bollywood Life, the actress was asked that she has a problem with getting popular male stars from the industry to be a part of the film.
She said, “Yeah, yeah, it is a problem and I’ve been very open about it, it is a problem every time – it has been one consistent problem while casting for a film in which I need an actor to play a part opposite me in a film which is a girl’s story. It is so bizarre that guys who are barely one film old have this mindset that, you know, it’s not right for them to do a part lesser than a girl in a film as it might just spoil their image. So, I’ve also had this major issue in casting male actors opposite me in most of the films I’ve done, which are female-driven or at least films that are from the female’s point of view.” as quoted by Bollywood Life.
