“To be honest, it is not just about our industry or any other industry. I think, the fact is that it is a male dominated world. It’s changing now with the kind of conversations that are happening over the years. Personally, I don’t operate at that level. I don’t operate with the sense of fear,” says Rakul.
She further adds, “When I started out, I didn’t even think on those lines. At the time I entered showbiz, I felt happy that I was stepping into a new world, which is the world of my dreams. I am a positive believer. I just believe that you must keep your blinders on and keep working and make space for yourself.”
In the last few years, Rakul is happy that there are so many female talents that came up in the industry and took up various departments of film making, yet she says that it’s talent over gender. She shares, “The film I am working on right now has a lot of women on sets. However, it is not about male or female, my only belief is that it is about your credibility, and not about your gender. Having said that, overall, I am just happy that this change is happening, and it is a good one.”
