A girl's character is not just about the length of her trousers or skirt - Kangana on women empowerment
Kangana Ranaut has always been a strong advocate of women empowerment. The fiery actress believes that today women are seen taking over different roles in the film industry. At an event for a fitness brand in the city, the 29-year-old actress recalled that when she started her career 10 years ago, there were hardly any female editor or assistant director around but that's not the case anymore.
"When I started ten years ago, it used to be rare to find a lady assistant director or a woman editor...but if you go to a film set, it's completely taken over by women now. So these are the women who are inspiring these stories (of women empowerment)," said Kangana to a media agency.
On being asked if people's mindset has changed regarding girls wearing short clothes, she said, "At least we have put across to people with this thinking that if you want to treat a girl child differently than a male child or you think the girl's character is just about the length of her trousers or skirt, then I think a person deep down should know that how we are judging this person."
Kangana will next be seen in director Vishal Bhardwaj's period drama Rangoon which also stars Shahid Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan. The film is slated for a February release next year.
