EXCLUSIVE: SHOCKING! Paridhi Sharma Reveals Pay Disparity Exist In Bollywood, NOT In TV Industry; Acknowledges Deepika Padukone, Kangana Ranaut’s Efforts To Break The Norm

Paridhi Sharma opened up on pay disparity in the Bollywood and TV industry. In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Bubble, the actress revealed a shocking truth about payments and how actresses like Deepika Padukone, Kangana Ranaut and Vidya Balan have challenged the norm. She also commented on whether she would do Jodhaa Akbar again. Scroll down to read what she said and watch the full interview.

Paridhi Sharma On Pay Disparity

When asked about the pay disparity in TV, Paridhi Sharma revealed, “I think cinema mein toh yeh disparity hai, but television mein nahi hai. Television mein toh ulta hai, television mein female leads ko zyada importance milta hai, kyunki television ke audience mostly, you know, hamari housewives hain, homemakers hain. Toh yahan pe zyada bolbala female artists ka rehta hai. Haan, toh television mein toh I think males ko actually fight karna chahiye parity ke liye. But cinema mein definitely it’s more male-dominated. Lekin ab things are changing. Actresses like Vidya Balan, Deepika Padukone, Kangana Ranaut yeh sab iss norm ko break kar rahi hain. Aur inke naam par bhi audience cinema dekhne aati hai, aur inhe equally ya kabhi-kabhi zyada pay bhi mil raha hai.”

Paridhi Reveals If She Will Do Jodhaa Akbar Again

Speaking of whether she will ever do Jodhaa Akbar again, the actress said, “To be very honest, I don’t want to do Jodha again. I have lived that experience. As an actor, you want to do different characters na? I have lived it — maine usko bharpoor jiya, poori shiddat se jiya, maze mein jiya. Ab ho gaya. Toh ab main Jodha dobara nahi karna chaahungi. Aur mujhe lagta hai ab us kahani mein kuch naya kehne ke liye hai bhi nahi — jitni kahani thi, woh kahi ja chuki hai. So I would like to do something new now.”

Paridhi Sharma will be next seen in Haq, starring Yami Gautam and Emraan Hashmi.
