MUMBAI (Web Desk) - Actor Vikrant Massey has recently spoken out about the pay disparity in Bollywood, highlighting the issue of gender-based compensation. In an interview, Massey expressed his disappointment that his body of work doesn't get him paid as much as his female co-stars.
Despite delivering consistent good performances over a decade, Massey believes he is not paid as much as some of his female co-stars like Deepika Padukone, who have fewer films to their credit. He stated that this is unfair to male actors who are not given their due when it comes to compensation.
Massey emphasised that the pay disparity is not just limited to Bollywood but exists in other industries as well. He urged the industry to address this issue and ensure that actors are paid based on their talent and experience rather than gender.
The issue of pay disparity in the entertainment industry has long been a topic of discussion, with many actors speaking out against it. Massey's statement adds to the ongoing conversation and highlights the need for change. As Massey gears up for the release of his upcoming film 'Forensic', it remains to be seen whether his comments will spark further dialogue and action towards achieving fair compensation for all actors.
