“When Akshay/Salman Do A Film, No One Calls It A Male-Centric Movie”- Sonakshi Sinha On LABELLING Movies As ‘Female-Centric’!

Happy 34th birthday to the talented & gorgeous Sonakshi Sinha!

From her debut movie Dabangg to Lootera to Mission Mangal– she has definitely paved her own way in Bollywood.

Happy 34th Birthday Sonakshi Sinha

In her almost 11-year-old career in the film industry, Sonakshi had done a couple of movies like Akira, Khandaani Shafakhana, Happy Phirr Bhag Jayegi, and Noor, wherein she played the solo lead.

However, the actress strongly believes that people should stop labelling movies with a female protagonist as a ‘female-centric’ movie. During a candid chit-chat with The Indian EXPRESS, the Kalank actress opened up about her grudges against the labelling of such projects by saying when it’s a Salman Khan or Akshay Kumar movie, people don’t categorize it as male-centric.

“When Akshay or Salman do a film, no one calls it a male-centric movie”- says Sonakshi Sinha

She says, “I just want this whole thing of calling a film led by a female artiste ‘woman centric’ to go away because when an Akshay (Kumar) or a Salman (Khan) does a film, no one calls it a male-centric film. A film is a film. Period. We should stop categorizing them. We should treat them as equals.”

She had also mentioned that male stars reject films that have bigger female parts. Agreeing with her Mission Mangal co-star Taapsee Pannu’s allegations of how it’s difficult to get male stars for films with stronger female characters, Sonakshi stated, “It’s true. This is a mindset that should change because I think it would be really nice to have men supporting women for a change. I would also like to see that in Hindi films… Now, why that happens you should ask the men.”
