The veteran actor Neena Gupta recently sparked a conversation around feminism and gender equality during a candid discussion on a podcast. In her conversation with Ranveer Allahabadia, she expressed her views on feminism, labeling it as ‘faltu’ or useless. Gupta’s stance revolves around the notion that women do not necessarily need to aim for equality with men. She advocates for prioritizing financial independence and recognizing the significance of one’s work, regardless of whether it’s in a professional sphere or as a homemaker.
Gupta emphasized the need to boost one’s self-esteem and discard the notion of considering oneself inferior. She reiterated her perspective by asserting that men and women are inherently unequal, stating that true equality would exist only when men could experience pregnancy.
To bolster her argument, the actor shared a personal incident where she felt vulnerable and in need of male assistance. Recounting an instance when she had to catch an early morning flight and felt unsafe due to someone following her, Gupta highlighted the role of a male friend who provided the safety and support she sought in that situation.
While Neena Gupta’s views on feminism and gender equality might contrast with conventional notions, her outspokenness on the subject has stirred dialogue. Gupta’s recent projects in cinema and web series, including ‘Mrs Chatterjee vs Norway,’ ‘Charlie Chopra and The Mystery Of Solang Valley,’ and ‘Lust Stories 2,’ alongside her upcoming venture ‘Metro In Dino’ in Anurag Basu’s production, continue to showcase her versatile acting prowess.
