'You're Not Young Enough': Taapsee Pannu Opens Up About Age Discrimination in Films
Taapsee Pannu Talks About Film Industry Double Standard: Taapsee Pannu does films on the big screen that raise issues related to women. In real life, she also expresses her opinion openly on every issue. Recently, Taapsee Pannu spoke about age discrimination against actresses.
An important issue was raised by Taapsee Pannu. The actress mentions discrimination against female actors in the industry. The reason is that she claims to be subjected to the same thing. According to her, due to her growing up, she isn't given certain roles as the producers consider her too old.
In a recent interview with Times Entertainment, Taapsee Pannu said, "By the time you establish yourself in the industry, you are already 30 years old." Then they say, "You're not young enough to work in romantic comedies." But that's not the case with male actors. Age discrimination is a big issue in the industry.
Taapsee Pannu further adds, "This used to happen to me in the South as well. As soon as I was cast opposite a senior actor, young actors wouldn't want to work with me." Referring to Bollywood, Taapsee says, "You wouldn't even dare say such a thing about Shah Rukh Khan." Thus, Taapsee reveals that age discrimination only happens to actresses; aging has no impact on the careers of male actors.
