MUMBAI – Bollywood star Varun Dhawan has spoken up on Gender parity in the entertainment industry in an interview.
As there are calls to make gender parity a reality in the entertainment industry and Varun Dhawan feels men have an important role to play in this discourse. The actor says men should stop feeling threatened and work towards creating a better work environment for all.
“Men can be a big part of the dialogue and they should be a part of the change. I think men need to stop being threatened by this change. They should be more accepting about it,” stated the Judwaa 2 star.
“I think it is only going to be beneficial if there is equality, because, first and foremost, more talent will shine through… Let people come through (on the basis of) talent. Let us not discriminate just because of gender.
