Medha Shankar, who became a national crush with Vikrant Massey's film "12th Fail," is now in the news for her upcoming film, "Ginny Weds Sunny 2." It's a family romantic comedy starring Avinash Tiwari. Recently, during the film's promotion, Medha Shankar recalled instances where she felt humiliated. The actress revealed that a designer once even refused to give her a lehenga.
In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, actress Medha Shankar was asked if she had ever felt humiliated on a film set. The actress immediately replied, "No." But she also revealed that there have been many instances at events and other situations where she has been made to feel small and inferior. The actress said that with designers at events, you know, we all hear small things like, "This designer won't give you his outfit."
Of course, it doesn't bother me, but I remember their names. It's not that I have any complaints or anything, but I do remember them. It's not that it's a personal matter, because you know it's protocol, but you think, "What happened here?" So I did feel a little strange.
Listening to Medha during the conversation, Avinash Tiwari said that this is true not only for the film industry but for society as a whole, where people in power often expect things to happen according to their wishes. We have developed the notion that there's a system, that this is how things work, this is the system, and that's where the problem begins. It used to be that if someone couldn't be bought, people respected them. That respect has now been lost.
But I respect those who persevered because they persisted, they never bowed to the system or power. I believe that no matter how much money you have, you can't buy me, so what good is your power? This is how I've understood my life. Whatever games people are playing, I'm not here because of them. He's not here because of them either. Everyone is here because of their talent, so why be so afraid and overthink?
Avinash Tiwari and Medha Shankar starrer "Ginny Weds Sunny 2" is releasing in theaters on April 24th. The film is directed by Prashant Jha. The trailer for the film was recently released, and it has received a positive response. Now, audiences are eagerly awaiting the film.
