Actor Simran criticised a female colleague for an 'insensitive remark' about 'aunty roles' at the JFW Movie Awards. She emphasised the value of such roles, citing her work in Kannathil Muthamittal. Actor Simran recently called out one of her female industry colleagues for an “insensitive remark" on doing “aunty roles".
At the JFW Movie Awards, she mentioned that she recently texted a fellow actor, complimenting her for a part she did. When she expected a ‘thank you’ in return, she was surprised to see a cryptic comment from the fellow actor about playing “aunty roles". In a video that is being widely circulated online, Simran spoke about the matter.
She said, “Just recently, I sent a message to one of my female co-actors, saying, ‘I was surprised to see you in that role.’ Then immediately I got a message from her saying that, ‘at least it’s better than not doing an aunty role’. Such an insensitive message.
Actually, I did not expect. I could’ve gotten a better answer, I felt." She further continued, “But, I feel it’s better to do aunty roles and main aunty roles – mother of 25 years.
I have done it in ‘Kannathil Muthamittal’ also, than playing dabba roles and doing nothing. That’s what I feel. We should feel confident on what we all want to do.
" Though she didn’t mention any names, fans are taking a guess between Jyotika, Trisha Krishnan, or Laila, all of whom have been associated with Simran lately. However, the actors haven’t reacted to the incident yet. Watch the video here: Simran is one of the popular faces from the South film industry.
She has worked with the likes of Thalapathy Vijay, Mammootty, R Madhavan, and other who’s who from the film industry. She was recently seen in Good, Bad And Ugly starring Ajith Kumar..
