While
welcoming
the
Supreme
Court's
judgement
to
allow
female
make-up
artistes
to
work
in
Bollywood,
Ranbir
Kapoor
hopes
the
film
industry
does
away
with
gender
bias
existing
against
women
in
other
areas
too.
The
Supreme
Court
has
put
an
end
to
a
59-year
old
practice
in
Bollywood
that
puts
restrictions
on
women
make-up
artistes
from
being
a
part
of
the
industry.
Ranbir,
32,
said
such
shocking
discrimination
on
the
basis
of
gender
is
violative
of
constitutional
values.
The
actor
called
out
for
giving
women
equal
opportunity
in
Bollywood,
saying
that
they
deserved
to
be
paid
even
more
than
their
male
counterparts
for
the
hard
work
they
put
in.
"Better
sense
has
prevailed.
It
is
great
that
this
has
happened
(SC's
ruling).
A
woman
should
be
paid
even
more
than
a
man
for
the
work
she
does
and
efforts
she
puts
in.
I
hope
all
other
fields
in
Bollywood
which
are
male
centric,
same
thing
starts
happening.
We
should
have
stunt
women
as
they
can
be
equally
well
and
better
as
men
in
all
these
departments," Ranbir
said.
The
'Barfi!' star
also
congratulated
the
petitioner
Charu
Khurana,
who
challenged
the
gender
bias
in
the
Cine
Costume
and
Make
Up
Artists
Association
(CCMAA).
She
had
argued
why
only
men
could
be
registered
as
its
members.
"I
congratulate
Charu
and
it
is
amazing
that
she
stood
her
ground
and
made
it
happen.
It
is
a
good
beginning," he
said
here,
while
launching
the
new
ad
campaign
for
watch
company
Tag
Heuer
'Don't
Crack
Under
Pressure'.
Ranbir
said
though
he
juggles
different
kinds
of
pressures
every
day,
he
loves
such
situations
as
they
bring
the
best
in
him.
"We
all
are
under
tough
situations
be
it
family
work
or
marriage
pressure.
It
is
an
everyday
thing
and
I
feel
pressure
is
always
a
good
thing
to
have
because
it
brings
out
the
best
in
a
person.
"I
am
not
saying
that
because
I
come
from
a
filmy
family
but
I
think
all
individuals
feel
that
way.
To
rise
from
each
pressure
is
what
makes
you
better
and
stronger," the
actor
said.
