SRK opened up about the issue of wage disparity in Bollywood...
Pay disparity has been one of the constant ills that have plagued Bollywood. It's been years that this issue has been discussed in the open. But not much has changed. Heroines are still paid much lesser than heroes.
Mostly, actresses have come out and discussed the issue. While many actors have spoken about it, there are many who've kept quiet. In an interview, SRK too broke silence on the issue.
"I feel every woman in this industry works three times harder than the men and gets ten times lesser the money. But not in my company. I can’t enforce that in the films that I act in and don’t produce — but the ones that I produce, there’s equal pay. Plus, their name appears before mine in the title credits," he told Huffingtonpost in an interview.
Not just that, SRK also explained that merely talking about this won't bring in the much needed effect. "I don’t talk about the change. I am the change. In my films, the girl’s name always comes before mine. On my film’s set, the girl is always in a higher position than men – nobody can call them 'tu'; it’s always 'aap'," he added.
Now, that's possibly one of the best things we've heard in a long time.
