Sonakshi Sinha, known for her stellar performances and fearless attitude, recently shared a shocking incident from her career. She revealed that an older male co-star refused to work with her, claiming she appeared older than him, even though she was 5-6 years younger.

During a roundtable discussion with Zoom, Sonakshi Sinha highlighted the stark gender disparities in the film industry. She pointed out how actresses often face harsh scrutiny for their appearance and age, while their male counterparts continue to romance much younger women on screen without facing criticism.

From body image to age-shaming, Sonakshi Sinha noted that the burden of these double standards disproportionately falls on women. The “Heeramandi” actress reflected on facing prejudice from older actors who claimed she looked older than them, despite being 5-6 years younger.

Sonakshi said, “In fact, I’ve had to deal with actors who are older than me who’ve said, ‘She looks older than us’.” She expressed gratitude for not having to collaborate with individuals who hold such views and highlighted the extra challenges women face in breaking barriers and creating their own paths in the industry.

She emphasized that the struggle for women in cinema should not be so stark compared to men, as all are artists at heart. She added, “Arey, main tumse 5-6 saal choti hoon!”

The actress is also currently in the limelight due to her response to Shaktimaan fame Mukesh Khanna, who seemingly ‘questioned’ her upbringing. Sonakshi responded to Khanna’s criticism after she failed to answer a Ramayana question on “Kaun Banega Crorepati”. She pointed out that the other contestant also didn’t know the answer, yet only she was singled out.

Acknowledging her momentary lapse, the actress criticized Mukesh Khanna for repeatedly targeting her and her family. She emphasized that her respectful reply stemmed from the values instilled by her father, Shatrughan Sinha, and urged him to stop revisiting the incident, calling it a thing of the past.
