Actress Sarika was last seen in 'Baar Baar Dekho' got candid about the ageism and how the roles of mothers start getting foisted on older actress during an interview.
Actress Sarika is set to return to the silver screen this year. The actress will feature in Amazon Prime Video바카라s 바카라Modern Love: Mumbai바카라, for Alankrita Shrivastava바카라s short film 바카라My Beautiful Wrinkles바카라. She was last seen in 바카라Baar Baar Dekho바카라 in 2016.
During an interview with Indian Express, the actress talked about normalising ageism especially towards female actors in the industry. She went on to talk about how she appreciates well written characters and the reason behind saying yes to the short film. People may think that Sarika is picky about her characters, but in reality the actress came across very few 바카라good roles바카라 in the past years. When Shrivatava went to her with a abstract coming-of-age film for a woman in 60s, it was an instant yes.
Sarika then pointed out at the fact that as female actors enter 60s, the 바카라mother roles바카라 are pasted on them. That formed the base of reason behind the actress staying away from the films, she said, 바카라That has been happening for the longest time.바카라
Sarika added, 바카라I remember when I got back to acting, the first 3-4 films that came to me were like 바카라oh! she is back, ab isko iski maa bana do, uski maa bana do바카라. They wanted me to play mother to heroes who were three years younger than me. This is a very old-age thing. Now, thanks to OTT, where the financial risk is not there, people are ready to try out different things. We have better scripts, and much wider audience thanks to OTT in our country. So, you can put it all out there, and that whole collection and distribution thing is not there. So we can be more honest and can bring out real stories. That바카라s the only thing that바카라s happening, but 바카라woh tabhi bhi tha, abhi bhi hai바카라 (ageism when it comes to roles for female actors), and that바카라s is not a thing that we change.바카라
However, now that the actress is back on sets, Sarika plans to stick around. 바카라As actors, you want to do more work, play different roles, but you바카라re also totally dependent on directors. When I have got good offers, I바카라ve never missed an opportunity to do that. As actors, we don바카라t know what we will be offered, but the good thing is that in the past few years, it has become so much more interesting. Also, there is such diversity in directors today, which results in diversity in content. So, we are catering to everybody out there.바카라
It is not new for older actresses to start getting mother roles rather than leading lady in the entertainment industry. But with the reforms and OTT platforms uprising, it is expected for the platonic view to change. From the trailer, Sarika seems to be a recipient of young man바카라s love. When asked about how she feels about being a romantic lead at the age, she said, 바카라I don바카라t care. If I get a good film to do, I바카라ll do it. Tomorrow if someone offers me a role of a fruit-seller and if it is a good role, I바카라ll do that too.바카라
바카라It is just one of the roles. You can바카라t say 바카라arre love story mil gayi iss age mein, meri toh nikal padi바카라, it is really not like that. It is about a good role that you want and feel 바카라yes, I got it!바카라. I crave to work on good scripts, with good directors because that is what makes me happy.바카라 Concluded the actress.
