Sharvari reacts to 'looks trump talent' debate in Bollywood
What's the story
Actor Sharvari, who has been in the industry for a while now, recently opened up about the perception that "looks often trumps talent" in Bollywood. In an interview with Times Now, she said she is not bothered by this notion and believes that "what matters the most is the actor that you are." The actor will soon be seen in Imtiaz Ali's Main Vaapas Aaunga.
Actor's perspective
'Looks change in every film,' says Sharvari
Sharvari said, "I don't see it like that and never thought of this." "In the time that we are in right now, what matters the most is the actor that you are. Everyone is trying to be better at that."
