Parineeti Chopra: Female co-actors get along and work very well together

Actress Parineeti Chopra does not agree with the perspective that two Bollywood actresses cannot be friends, and catfight are quite an obvious thing to happen when a film has more than one female star. The actress said, “I started with a film ‘Ladies Vs Ricky Bahl’; 2011 where there were four girls. I did another film ‘Shudh Desi Romance’ (2013) with another female actress [Vaani Kapoor] as the main lead. My last film, ‘Golmaal Again’ (2017), had about 19 actors in all. There was Tabu ma’am and me and there was all the love in the world. So, there can actually be scenarios where [female] co-actors get along and work very well together.”


Talking about rumours and gossip the actress quipped, “I feel that a single statement [made] by somebody becomes a gossip, and then it travels until it gets bigger and becomes a rumoured story. That’s what I believe in and I, myself, have seen it. There could be one percent truth in something but by the time it reaches these blind items, it becomes something else altogether.”


The actress concluded by saying, “There are so many lies in that. As actors, we keep feeling that where has this come from. Even when Sonam tweeted [about it], I think she was only standing up against false news. Plus, she addressed a bigger point there that two female actors can work together. Spreading rumours at our cost is not fair. We work day and night to be as professional and loving as we can, and one rumoured blind item can spoil it all [for us].”
