Most actresses in tinsel town are not comfortable sharing their age, but Vidya Balan has no qualms about it! She says she’s proud to be a 36-year-old.
Vidya, who has been a part of the Hindi film fraternity for over a decade feels that the reason why not just actresses, but women in general too, are wary of revealing their age is because of the pressure to look young in a youth obsessed society. “I don’t think it’s only about actresses. I think we are a youth obsessed society… the pressure on women to remain eternally young is much more. But I say I am a proud 36-year-old,” the Kahaani actress says.
The National Award winning actress said that women get worried because “desirability is often associated with age”. But she added that “age is just a number really (and) we should not give anymore importance than that”.
