\nRaveena Tandon says female actors had to work much more to earn as much as male actors in the ’90s<\/p>\n
What Raveena said
\n\u201cIn those days, the money was very, very less, especially the pay disparity between actors and actresses. The male stars got a lot; much, much more. What they would make in one film, I would make in, say 15 films. For women actors\u2026 me, personally\u2026 actually, I can’t speak for everybody, I can’t generalise this. I had to do 15-20 films to make as much money as my male counterparts,\u201d Raveena said.<\/p>\n
She said her male co-stars like Salman Khan and Aamir Khan did far more selective work because of the same reason. \u201cFor everybody overall as well, the money was much lesser than the situation today. There are a lot more corporates coming in. It’s become a much more professional way of doing things, which is great actually,\u201d added Raveena.<\/p>\n
