  • Actresses Are Constantly Being Judged: Sonakshi Sinha
Actress Sonakshi Sinha says one of the downsides of her profession is that they are constantly being judged.
 
"Unfortunately, people who are in the limelight are always being judged. This is one of the downsides of our profession that as an actress we are constantly being judged. For me, I am somebody who has always been confident in my own skin and not pay too much attention on what people think about me," Sonakshi told IANS.
 
The daughter of star couple Shatrughan Sinha and Poonam Sinha added: "If you get into that pressure, you will go mad. It's better to be yourself, work hard and move ahead."
 
The actress also feels that now is the right time to be an actress in the film industry.
 
"Wonderful roles are being written keeping women in mind. Films are being made with a woman as the protagonist. The pay disparity is decreasing, they are getting their dues. Right now is a good time to be in the industry," the 29-year-old said.
