Most actresses in tinsel town are not comfortable sharing their age, but Vidya Balan has no qualms about it! She says she’s “proud to be a 36-year-old”.
Vidya, who has been a part of the Hindi film fraternity for over a decade feels that the reason why not just actresses, but women in general too, are wary of revealing their age is because of the pressure to look young in a “youth obsessed society”.
“I don’t think it’s only about actresses. I think the pressure on women to remain eternally young is much more. But I say I am a proud 36-year-old,” the Kahaani actress told.
The actress said that women get worried because “desirability is often associated with age”.
“Age is just a number really and we should not give any more importance than that”, said the actress who has impressed cine-goers with films like No One Killed Jessica, Paa and Ishqiya besides The Dirty Picture.
