Male Actors Deserve The Pay - Anushka
X
Anushka Shetty is known for being the Queen of Telugu Cinema. She maintained her status as one of the pioneers in women-centric films while doing the normal commercial films too, where heroes dominate.

The actress having seen the best of both of both the worlds, commented about the pay disparity issue going on in Indian Cinema these days.

Actresses have been asking for a better pay rise or on par pay with the male lead actors and this has become a big issue with the sexual harassment allegations surfacing on different bigwigs in different languages.

Even though none of the Telugu heroines named any people, they did say that the casting couch is an open secret even though they haven't faced it. Anushka did not comment on them but she said, " Sexual harassment is a different issue to salary. Heroes lose much more than heroines if a film bombs and as they take a lot of pressure, if they get paid more, then they deserve it."

On sexual harassment, she said, "It should be condemned and I do not support even talking it lying down at any stage. One should learn to give and take respect."

Anushka Bhaagamathie, is releasing on 26th of January. The movie is directed by G. Ashok and music is composed by SS Thaman.
