Parineeti lauds industry for not cancelling moms
During an interaction with reporters, Parineeti opened up about getting good roles post motherhood. “I don't think I've had a single conversation with a maker, director or writer who has mentioned motherhood to me. I don't remember anybody saying, 'Now that you're a mom, this is what we're offering you,' and that lack of association is the win. I would hate to stop working just because I became a mom. It's a two-way relationship; I have to be offered work, and I would be sad to lose work because I've done such a beautiful thing in producing a baby,” she said.
