In conversation with Sonal Kalra, Chief Managing Editor, Entertainment and Lifestyle on The Right Angle show, she said people still place the pressure of looking a certain way only on women. Asked whether the thought of ageing crosses her mind, even as her fitness and looks are still praised, she said, “Now that’s a double-edged sword. There are days when it does cross my mind, where I do wonder or question the obvious. And then there are days where I don’t. I just don’t care because I am doing what I love, I am enjoying it, and I feel like I am in my prime. I am hungry and wanting to do so much, so it doesn’t really affect me. ”But she feels men too should be asked the same question. “I feel women are constantly asked this question. Very rarely is a man asked any of these things. A woman who is asked, “At your prime you were like this, and now you are at this age, so how does it feel? Do you still feel beautiful? Do you still feel desirable?” I’ve never heard anybody ask a man this question. Women are always subjected to this test of looking a certain way,” she confessed on the show.
