Actor Suniel Shetty has said that women should be given equal importance in the film industry like in every other working sector in the country.On Tuesday, an 18-member panel, including Akshay Kumar, Karan Johar, Ajay Devgn, Siddharth Roy Kapur, Ritesh Sidhwani and CBFC chief Prasoon Joshi, met the Prime Minister to discuss how to take the entertainment industry to the next stage.<\/p>\n
Dia Mirza expressed her displeasure on Twitter asking the reason for women\u2019s absence from the Bollywood delegation of producers and actors who discussed the issues faced by the film industry.<\/p>\n
Shetty agreed with Mirza, saying \u201cAbsolutely. I feel when you are giving importance to women in every other sector then, we should give them equal importance in film industry as well. I think their meeting with Prime Minister Modi was impromptu that is why there wasn\u2019t inclusion of a female member from film industry. But I am sure that wasn\u2019t their conscious decision.\u201d<\/p>\n
A few days ago, veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah landed in a controversy when he termed Indian cricket skipper Virat Kohli as the \u201cworst behaved player\u201d as he was involved in a heated argument with Australian skipper Tim Paine in the ongoing India-Australia Test series.<\/p>\n
After that statement, few media outlets quoted Suniel Shetty saying Virat is an aggressive player and \u201cI don\u2019t agree with Naseeruddin Shah\u2019s statement.\u201dShetty said, \u201cIt\u2019s probably one individual who twists and turns, edits and presents the quote the way they want to, that makes the difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
