Bold scenes of only big stars are praised, feels Zareen

TIL Desk Bollywood/ Bollywood actress Zareen Khan says when a big star does bold scenes on-screen it is appreciated but when something similar is done by a relatively less established face, people label it as “trash”. The actress, who appeared in a bold role in last year’s hit “Hate Story 3”, feels she doesn’t understand the disparity between the reception of bold scenes by audience.

“If, may be, a bigger name does this (bold scenes) it’s alright. It’s like ‘wow’, ‘oh my God’, ‘looking so hot’, this and that. But if somebody with not so much a big or established name is doing it, it is called trash, people are trolling it,” Zareen told. “I don’t understand all these things. But I don’t let them get on to me. I don’t get bothered or affected by these things. I am here to do my work. I think I’ve learnt this over the years,” she said.

The actress feels part of the problem is that many people in the country are look down upon bold scenes, but will be the first ones to watch them. “I feel we live in a hypocritical country. There are a lot of people out there who will say all the possible negative things about that (bold scenes), but they won’t avoid watching it. They will still watch it,” she said.
