Actor Sanvikaa, known for playing the role of Rinki in the popular Amazon Prime Video web series Panchayat, shared a post on Instagram on Friday, offering a glimpse into the off-screen reality of the entertainment world. In her post, the actor opened up about not getting respect. Taking to her Instagram Story, Sanvikaa wrote, 'Sometimes I wish I was an insider or maybe from a very powerful background, things would have been so much easier (maybe, I don't know) As basic as getting respect and being treated as an equal. The battles would have been lesser. Hanging on.' Her note has been going viral on social media.

'My blouses were...': Neena Gupta reveals she was replaced by Tanuja in an Amitabh Bachchan movie

Actress Neena Gupta, who is known for her outspokenness, has always expressed her opinion firmly. In a recent interview, she said that she is still struggling to get work. She also told about being removed from many films. Neena Gupta will soon be seen in the fourth season of 'Panchayat' and 'Metro…In Dino' with Anupam Kher. Neena Gupta recently gave an interview to Nayandeep Rakshit. In it, she said that actresses of her age still struggle to get work. She said, 'Men of my age or even older continue to play heroes on the big screen, but I am considered for a grandmother also at times. Men have more character roles, and we don't. I know other actresses who are friends, and they still don't have any work.' She added, 'I still message and reach out to people for work. If I see on Instagram that a film has been announced or I see an actor visiting a producer's office, then I call my manager and get the director's number and send a message asking if there is anything for me. You need to do that, no matter how big a star you are.' Neena Gupta on being replaced by another actress The veteran actress recalled that recently she saw a paparazzi video of another actress of her age on Instagram visiting a producer's office and that's how she got to know she was replaced. Neena said, 'There have been times when people sign you and then replace you. Recently, I was called for a film and they said you have to do it. I said okay. They were discussing the money and dates, but a few days later, I saw on Instagram that an actress of my age is going to their office. I asked my manager to find out and learned that she was signed in my place. Instagram is not stupid; sometimes it's very useful. Then I wrote a message to that producer saying that they should at least inform if they changed their mind. He realised his mistake, and said sorry. Now, we are doing a film together soon.' When Tanuja replaced Neena Gupta Then she recalled an old instance when she was replaced by actress Tanju in an Amitabh Bachchan movie. 'Once, in an older film of mine with Amitabh Bachchan, my blouses were stitched, the costume was ready, and they went ahead and took Tanuja for that role. Then I got to know I was no longer in that film. But one should not feel bad and bitter about it, just move on', said Gupta.
