No good scripts for over-40 actors: Mahima Chaudhary

‘Pardes’ actor Mahima Chaudhary said she had not shunned Bollywood; it was rather the other way round. “I am not getting good roles. In fact, good scripts are not being written for over-40 actresses in

Bollywood

. However, it’s not the case in

Hollywood

where the likes of Nicole Kidman and Reese Witherspoon are getting meaty roles,” she said.

Mahima also wanted a mechanism developed to protect actresses as they are more vulnerable to the vagaries of movie careers than male actors. “I saw real struggle when I met with an accident after three superhit films,” she said. “I was also thrown out of some films after signing them.”
