Taapsee Pannu, who next will be seen onscreen in "Saand Ki Aankh", has said that actresses still get five to 10 per cent pay as compared to the total payment of male actors, primarily because the audience watches more male-driven films.
Actor Sooraj Pancholi, who will next be seen onscreen in "Satellite Shankar" four years after his debut film "Hero" disappointed at the box-office, believes in the maxim "apna time aayega".
Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar, who is playing a fictional historical character named Rajkumar Bala in "Housefull 4", has said that makers of the forthcoming comedy-drama film haven't tried to ape any character from previous films.
