JollyReddy Posted April 4, 2022 Report Posted April 4, 2022 Raashii Khanna: Was not taken seriously in South; some rejected me saying I was 'too pretty for the role' After a brief hiatus, Rashi Khanna will be making a comeback to Telugu films with a bunch of releases lined up later this year. The actress was recently seen in the Hindi web series ‘Rudra’ and her performance was well appreciated. However, the actress’ comments on the South film industry during ‘Rudra’ promotions has attracted some controversy. The actress during one of the interviews spoke on the functioning of the Southern industries and said that the actresses are segregated on the basis of being ‘performers’ and ‘glam dolls’. She added that she has lost out on several projects due to being objectified as a pretty girl. “In the South, they will label you as ‘lady’, ‘lass’, ‘milky beauty’ and it will only stop if you fight back. Half of the time it comes out because of the love fans have for you, but basic objectification is the problem,” she explained. “They don’t want to see beyond the looks, that’s what I was facing in the South where people were not taking me seriously as an actor. While I think things have changed a little after Rudra, it will definitely change after my upcoming projects, which I think is only a good thing for me,” she added. Rashi Khanna made her debut with the critically acclaimed Bollywood action thriller Madras Cafe. After the success of the film, she moved to Telugu and Tamil industries where she got a lot of offers and recognition. While her comments were about her experiences, they have not gone down well with a lot of fans back south. She will be next seen in ‘Pakka Commercial’ with Gopichand and ‘Thank You’ with Naga Chaitanya later this year. 1 Quote
