Actress Sonakshi Sinha says she "would love" to work in the biopic of Rio Olympics bronze medal-winning wrestler Sakshi Malik.

About the gender bias in payments of Bollywood, the "Akira" star said: "I think gender biases in fees can be seen in any industry, not just in Bollywood. That is why we came here to tell people that do not make feel your girl that she is less than anyone. So that in future they should not face the problem of gender biases. Gender equality is utmost important."
