Sonam
Kapoor
is
one
of
the
few
B-town
leading
ladies
who
has
never
shied
away
from
speaking
her
mind.
In
the
past,
the
actress
on
several
instances
shared
her
opinion
on
the
gender
pay
disparity
existing
in
Bollywood.
Recently
in
a
tete-a-tete
with
a
leading
tabloid,
Sonam
once
again
addressed
this
topic.
She
said
that
the
depiction
of
women
on
screen
is
improving
but,
there's
a
still
long
way
to
go
when
it
comes
to
an
equal
industry.
The
actress
said
that
the
pay
gap
in
the
film
industry
is
'ridiculous'
and
that
she
can
stand
up
to
it.
However,
she
added
that
in
such
cases,
she
does
not
get
those
roles.
"The
pay
gap
is
ridiculous.
I
can
stand
up
to
it,
but
then
I
don't
get
those
roles,
and
I'm
okay
with
that.
I
can
afford
to
do
that.
I
realised
over
the
past
two
or
three
years
that
I
have
no
right
to
judge
anybody.
I'm
privileged,
so
making
difficult
choices
isn't
really
f**king
difficult,"
Mid-day
quoted
the
Veere
Di
Wedding
actress
as
saying.
Meanwhile,
earlier
this
year,
Sonam
wrapped
up
the
shooting
of
her
upcoming
film,
Shome
Makhija's
Blind
in
Scotland.
The
actress
will
be
essaying
the
role
of
a
blind
girl
in
the
movie.
The
actress
told
the
tabloid
that
to
prep
for
her
role,
she
immersed
herself
in
Zoom
rehearsals,
trained
in
fight
sequences,
and
walked
around
the
house
with
a
blindfold
on.
Sonam
also
recalled
wearing
white
lenses
during
the
shoot
that
blocked
her
vision.
"It
was
intense.
We
were
starting
at
3
pm
and
shooting
until
4
am.
You'd
wake
up
and
have
one
hour
of
daylight," Mid-day
quoted
her
as
saying.
Sonam
said
tha
she
is
immensely
proud
of
the
film
that
lets
her
examine
the
experience
of
differently-abled
people
while
playing
"an
empowered
woman."
Sonam
Kapoor-starrer
Blind
is
a
remake
of
the
2011
Korean
thriller
of
the
same
name.
The
film
bankrolled
by
Sujoy
Ghosh,
revolves
around
an
ex-police
officer
who
loses
her
eyesight
and
becomes
embroiled
in
a
case.
While
shooting
for
the
film
in
Scotland,
the
actress
often
gave
fans
a
sneak-peek
from
the
sets.
