‘They don’t have to worry about pregnancy’- says Meenakshi Seshadri on male having long run

Actress Meenakshi Seshadri made her Hindi film debut in the 1980s and then to focus on her personal life she has quit the film industry in 1996.

The actress is now gearing up for her comeback. During an interview, Meenakshi was asked why male actors remain superstars for longer.

She said, “There are quite a few reasons why male actors have a longer run in the industry. Even with Dharmendra, Jeetendra, and Amitabh Bachchan’s generation, they are still at it. Another factor is that men are not really the ones who are doing domestic duties at home. So they can completely devote themselves to their careers. The third reason is that they don’t have to worry about childbirth, pregnancy, or raising children. All of this becomes the woman’s responsibility. So, there you go, this is exactly why these heroes are still going strong. And, of course, people still like them. It is the most important factor.”

However, earlier the actress has also worked with big stars like Amitabh Bachchan, Rajesh Khanna, Jeetendra, Anil Kapoor, and Shatrughan Sinha.
