Shruti Haasan Shares Difficult Experience Of Dancing In Snow Wearing Saree. Why Are Actresses Made To Do This?

Actresses often have to go the extreme lengths in films as compared to their male counterparts. It doesn’t matter whether they are doing action or playing a glamourous role, actresses are often expected to outdo themselves. Well, one more unthinkable thing actresses are often seen doing in films is dancing in the snow while not wearing anything woollen or warm. They will either be dressed in dresses or sarees as they dance in the snow while the actors will be wearing suits or jackets. In a recent interview, Shruti Haasan talked about how she was dancing in the snow wearing a saree in her recently released film, Waltair Veerayya, and she found it uncomfortable.

A clip from the interview has gone viral on social media wherein Shruti Haasan is talking about her experience of shooting for a song sequence wearing only a saree in the snow. She can be heard saying that the actor is dressed in a jacket while she was only dressed in a blouse and a saree while filming the song. She said that it is difficult to shoot in the snow wearing such clothes and also requested the filmmakers to not make actresses do this ahead.

There were some very intelligent people on Twitter who went on to comment how much Shruti Haasan likes to charge for her role in films. One of them wrote that she has no complaints to make while accepting cheques. But bro, why will she have a problem accepting the money, she has EARNED? What is the relevance here? Don’t you also accept the salary that gets credited to your account after slogging for eight hours at your workplace? Or do you return it complaining that your boss or your co-worker was toxic? I will never understand how these people find the courage to bring up such half-as arguments.

In the past, Alia Bhatt was dressed in a short skirt for a song in Student Of The Year and Kajol was also dressed in a short red dress while shooting for ‘Zara Sa Jhoom Loon Main’ in DDLJ. It is high time that the filmmakers should understand this and do not make the actresses dance in unreasonable outfits in the snow for the sake of glamour. If so much is the case, how about they make the actor wear a cotton vest or half-pants to up the glam game?
