So Shahrukh can play Don, Sanjay Dutt can be a romantic lead, Amithabh can fall in love with an 18 year old. But (heaven forbid) a WOMAN take a role at age 39 where shes not a mother or a bahbi and its a case 'she's too much of an old hag for a role'....a role by the way which no one really knows anything about! (doesnt that make all the negative
Interesting to see such sexist views expressed on International Womens Day

Very well said indeed!!To add to the list of men who can't accept their age..... it's probably worse, unfortunately in the South- Chiranjeevi and Rajnikant clearly in their 50's and even the so-called younger breed (Nagarjun, Venkatesh and a balding Balakrishna )can romance 20-something-year olds, but the heroines are out of the race in their mid 20's!!!. It sooo reeks of sexism!!!
I think Madhuri looks more gorgeous now than she was in her 'ek do teen' days, if that's possible- absolutely ravishing! I wish someone would just smack the sexist pig who compared her to an old model car... I thought the only people who were insensitive enough to make a statement as politically incorrect as that were car salesmen! NV
