Do people think women from Bollywood aren't smart?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't think women are dumb.
I definitely am drawn to strong females who are successful, smart women because I am a woman like that. I think it's important to portray those kinds of women on film and television.
There are so many successful women working in intelligence, but it's still seen as a male-dominated world.
I really can't complain about actresses who get paid to be dumb. Most of us can't get paid to be smart.
How can smart women be so stupid about men sometimes? Lack of knowledge. It's what men have kept secret for so long.
You see a lot of smart guys with dumb women, but you hardly ever see a smart woman with a dumb guy.
Fortunately, we have a lot of really smart women in the business.
Women are very intelligent and not appreciated. We try to pretend that we are not clever, and it's such a pity that we can't show how clever we are.
I don't think that I will say that we are less talented in Bollywood, but our functioning is different. We cater to a different kind of audience.
It is so cool to think that there are two female, Indian actresses on prime-time American network television who are considered attractive and funny and smart.
