Chitrangda Singh: Real-life perception affected by film roles
Chitrangda Singh

Chitrangda Singh, who was last seen in Baazaar, says female actors get stereotyped by the film fraternity and audience alike based on their on-screen image. Having started her film career in 2003 with Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi, the actor has mostly been offered films in which she has portrayed a strong, idealistic and intelligent woman.

"I think, actresses are perceived by their on-screen image in real life. I remember how, after my debut film, people tended to think that I live my life wearing cotton saris. I am sure actresses who are doing bold scenes, if a character demands, might be perceived in the same manner in real life, which is scary."
